A.D. 1739.

Notification was given to the Vice-Chancellor, on June 9, that thirteen

pictures (of no great value) were bequeathed to the Gallery by Dr. King,

Master of the Charter House, by his will dated July 28, 1736, together

with £200 for the cleansing and repairing the frames of the pictures

already in the Gallery. A list of these thirteen is given in Gutch's

transl. of _Wood's Annals_, vol. ii. pp. 969, 970. The pictures

themselves are now in the Randolph Gallery. Dr. King also left a legacy

of £400 to the University to prepare a complete and handsome edition of

Zoroaster's Works, in Persian, with a Latin translation and notes; but

this portion of his bequest was not accepted.
