Minor Queries with Answers.

_Pepys._--I have lately acquired a collection of letters between Pepys and

Major Aungier, Sir Isaac Newton, Halley, and other persons, relating to the

management of the mathematical school at Christ's Hospital; and containing

details of the career of some of the King's scholars after leaving the

school. The letters extend from 1692 to 1695; and are the original letters

received by Pepys, with his drafts of the answers. They are loosely

stitched, in order of date, in a thick volume, and are two hundred and

upwards in number. Are these letters known, and have they ever been

published or referred to?
