Some places and quotations are defective in the originall, and could not easily be supplied, which the Reader may please to excuse, till further search can be made.

In the catalogue of Benefactors and Restorers of Impropriations, there is omitted among others,

The Right honourable Lo: Scudamore, Viscount Slego, who hath very piously restored much to some Vicarages in Here∣fordshire: whereof yet I cannot relate particulars fully.

Dr Fell the worthy Dean of Christ-Church in Oxon: (with the consent of the Prebendaries) hath for his short time, since he was Dean, been very carefull and pious in this kind, besides great repara∣tions of the decayed and imperfect buildings, and other necessaries of the colledge: in renuing and granting Leases to the Tenants of Impropriations, he hath reserved a good increase of maintenance to the incumbent Ministers in divers places: and hath put things into a course for the like increase in other Vicarages, as Leases shall happen to be renewed. And much more might have been done, if King Hen. 8. had not taken away the goodly Lands provided for that colledge by Wolsey, giving Impropriations for them, by which exchange he was a great gainer.

New Colledge, Magdalen Coll: and Queens Coll: have done the like upon their Impropriations, and some others have made aug∣mentations also, whereof the particulars shall appear hereafter, upon perfect information.
