He resided it would appear at \ Lincoln. He died intestate and in the words of Thomas Baker "his next relations not agreeing about the division, his wealth became a rich booty to the men of the law. It has been said he intended to make the College his heir, I cannot contradict that report, but I have often observed that they that profited most by the College have done the least for it when they come to die, being willing, it seems, to make a gift of What they leave, rather than bestow it where it may be thought a debt." There seems to have been ground fo r believing that King J ames I intended to issue a mandate to the Fellows to elect Valentine Carey (aft erwards Bishop of Exeter) as their new Master. Richard Neile, Bishop of Coventry and Lichfield, interesting himself' with the King to procure liberty of election.

At first sight could be appear as if the most interesting details are gleaned from them. The estates of the College arranged in each annual statement by Counties. The name of the tenant and the rent of each holding are entered year by year. In some cases a slight description of the property is added. We might be led to hope that if we extracted the items with regard to any selected estate, that we could form a list of tenants and from the rents learn how the value of land in the district had varied in the course of centuries. But this hope has to be abandoned on examination. The rents remain practically unaltered for long series of ear � s, t�e tenants in many cases seem immortal. This e � xplaIned in the curious memorandum by Dr William a ue rn l Powell (Master of the College from to r 1765 \:� 5 ) on the College Accounts, which is printed ill t r.o ll a ows.
