[Samuel White, M.A., was a Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, and

Chaplain to the Earl of Portland. His work, so severely criticised by

Bishop Horsley, is entitled _A Commentary on the Prophet Isaiah,

wherein the literal Sense of his Prophecies is briefly explained_:

London, 4to., 1709. In his Dedication he says: "I have endeavoured to

set in a true light one of the most difficult parts of Holy Scripture,

following the footsteps of the learned Grotius as far as I find him in

the right; but taking the liberty to leave him where I think him wide

of the prophet's meaning."]

_Heralds' College._--Are the books in the Heralds' College open to the

public on payment of reasonable fees?
