ACCOUNT OF LATER DONATIONS, TOGETHER WITH MISCELLANEOUS INSERTS 641

This he offer'd to take oath of before four or five Gent: at his house: I affirm & believe the truth of this, Witness my hand, Wm. Hodges Apothecary In Towcester Northamptonshire.

[Addendum 4] An Indian Fan, brought from the East Indies in the Prince William, commanded by Captain Webber. An: Dñi. 1750; & given to the Museum by Mr. Drought of St. Clement's Parish Oxford, Purser to the said ship.
[Addendum 5] Transcript of the Paper about the ancient Picture given to the University by Thos: Palmer Esqr. Memdun Nov.br 16. 1718 Thos. Palmer Esqr. of Fairfield in Somersetshire put this ancient picture of St. Cuthbert, made by order of King Alfred, into my hands, to be convey'd to the Bodleian Library in Oxford where his Father Natl. Palmer Esqr. Lately dead, desir'd it might be placed & preserv'd. Geo: Clarke. Vide Philosophical Transactions &c. Dr. Hicks's Thesaurus, where an account is given of this Picture & the finding of it. Found at Athelney in Somersetshire 441 Lowthorps Abridgment. 643
King's Alfred Jewel. Hutchinson's History of Durham. Vol. I. p. 25. note †. In the Philosophical Transactions No. 247 and 260 and in Gibson's edit of the Britannia, a curious Jewel, representing St. Cuthbert, is described, found near Athelney in Somersetshire. The portrait is enamelled on gold, drawn sitting in an episcopal chair, with the following inscription in Saxon – Thus construed: – Alfredus me jussit fabrican. Mr Wallis, speaking of this portrait, has the following remarks: “King Alfred preferred these characters to the saxon, and when he swa/y\ed the sceptre, brought them into use. This curious memorial of St. Cure Cuthbert was found in the very place of that glorious monarch's retreat and deliverance from the Danes, fortified by him in the time of war, and in the time of peace converted into a monastery.” Dr. Musgrave (who wrote a dissertation thereon), thinks this curious Cimolium an undeniable instance of the use of images coming from the Heathens into the Christian Church. Dr. Hickes has engraven it in his Thesaurus, and is of opinion, that the occasion of it was the vision of St. Cuthbert, which William of Malmsbury speaks of, appearing to him and his mother the same night, (after he had been beaten by the Danes, and retired into Athelney), and assuring him that he should be a great king. In memory whereof we may well suppose, that the image upon it is St. Cuthbert's, (to whose merit he was wont to ascribe his future successes over the Danes), and not only so, but being plainly made, on purpose to hang on a string, it is very probable that himself constantly wore it, in honour of to this his tutelar saint. – It is said to be now in the Ashmolean Museum at Oxford. – see Archaeologia, Vol. ii. p. 68.72. 644
[Addendum 6] Mr. Crynes's account of the Feather-piece which he left to the Museum. This Mexican Feather-piece was given to Mrs. Margaret Dawson (one of the Gentlewomen of the Bedchamber to Mary of Modena, wife of King James the Second, as her nephew said; & as appears by the printed depositions on the birth of the Prince of Wales) by the said Queen Mary. Mrs Dawson left it by will to her nephew Dr. Harrison of All Souls, after whose death I bought it. N. Crynes Mr. John Shippen told me he saw five pictures of the same kind in the King of Spain's Cabinet (I think) at the Escurial.
[Addendum 7] Account of the great Spider given to the Museum by Joseph Foster Bartham Esqr. The Spider I send you with some of his web upon blue paper is a Native of Jamaica. He hangs his net between trees 10 or 15 feet asunder; His prey is wasps & other large flies. I have observed, the humming Bird, tho so swift in flight, carefully avoids the snare. A gentleman told me, that percieving one of these Birds ensnar'd, & the Spider running round him, binding him with his web, he first kill'd the spider & afterwards trying to disentangle the little bird, found it was kill'd. Children get the silk from these creatures by winding it from them, as silk is wound from the wormcases, which is contained between the large shell & the real backs of the creature within. 645
[Addendum 8] Copy of the letter to the Honble Mr. Ben.det Leonard Calvert, concerning the creatures half frog, half Fish. These amphibious Creatures, I took alive out of the Lake Aniagno near Naples in Sept. 1724. They werewhen alive, exactly half a frog & half a Tench. This odd singularity in Nature was never known to happen there before. The People of the Place relate a miracle as the cause of this monstrous production; but an extraordinary mixture of the Spawn of Fishes & frogs seems to be the most natural account of this strange procreation. Bent. Leo.rd Calvert. 646

[Addendum 10] Mr Edward Seymour Apothecary of Wantage, Berks having found out the Art of striking a beautiful permanent Tint through a thick board or plank dedicated the first fruits of his Invention to the Ashmolean Museum. 1756. 647

[Addendum 21] A Copy of a Letter from the Bishop of Lincoln to the Vice-Chancellor transcribed from the Original in the Cabinet of Coin/e\s at the Ashmolean Repository. Mr Vice-chancellor. This comes with my love & service to tell you, that an ingenious Gentleman in my country, one Mr Brathaite having a collection of ancient Coines, I told him many years since when I was keeper of Bodlies Library (an importunate beggar for that great Magazine of Books (Coines). That he might do well to give his coines to our Library, so they would be preserved nor was it possible that they cou'd anywhere be placed more for his honour & the publique Good. This Gentleman is dead, & by a deed under his hand & seal (which you will find in the Box) left them to me in trust for the University. A worthy Gentleman (Sr Daniel Fleminge a member of the house of Commons) brought them to me & told me that the Box & the Coines he brought me were the very same which were delivered him by the donor of them. I did not question it & have sent them to you unopened as they came to me. Mr Ashmole hearing of them came to me & told me that he had reason to hope that the University wou'd place them amongst his raritys & speakes of a condition or Covenant made between him & the University that what Raritys were given to the University (pro futuro) shou'd be placed amongst his. I doubt not but you will gratify him in this particular he having (which he shew'd me) many MSS & other things of good value which he intends for the University. I have no more to say save that I am
