An vnknowne person  30 

Which 70. pound 8. shillings 6. pence, together with 30. pound added
thereunto by an vnknowne person, for the furtherance of the said free
Schoole, was paid vnto the Right honourable Henry Earle of Southamp-
ton, for the honourable Company of Virginia, at their great and generall
Quarter Court, held the 21. of Nouem. 1621. And the said Court, for the
better maintenance of the said Schoole, Schoolemaster, and Vsher intended


540

there to be placed, granted 1000. acres of land to the said free Schoole,
to bee at Charles Cittie, as the most commodious place for health, security,
profit, and conueniency: And appointed that with the said 100. pound 8.
shillings 6. pence, there should be sent ouer presently an Vsher, for the
instructing of the children there, in the principles of Religion, ciuility of
life, and humane learning: as also that fiue persons (besides an ouerseer
of them) should be foorthwith sent in the condition of Apprentices, to
manure and cultiuate some part of the said land, for the vse and benefit
of the said Vsher, till God stirred vp the hearts of others to be further
helpefull to the said Schoole.

Likewise the said honourable Virginia Court, thought fit in honour of
the said East-India Benefactors, the said free Schoole should bee built,
and the said 1000 acres set out in Charles Citie, to be called The East-
India Schoole:
And that the East-India Companies seruants, should haue
precedence before any other, to preferre their children thither, to be
brought vp in the rudiments of learning.

They thought fit also, that this (as a Collegiat or free Schoole) should
haue dependance on Henrico Colledge in Virginia, which should be made
capable to receiue Schollers from the Schoole, into such Schollerships and
Fellowships as the said Colledge shall be endowed withall, for the aduance-
ment of Schollers, as they shall rise by degrees and desert in learning.

There was since by a person refusing to be named, sent in to the great
and generall Quarter Court held for Virginia, the 30. of Ianuary 1621. 25
pound toward the furtherance of this godly worke: So that now there is
in all 125. pound 8 shillings 6. pence.

They that be wise shall shine as the brightnesse of the firmament; and they
that turne many to righteousnesse, shall shine as the Stars for euer and euer
,
Dan. 12. 3. For publike actions of vertue, besides that they are presently
comfortable to the doers, are also exemplary to others; and as they are
more beneficiall to others, so are they crowned in vs: our principall care
should bee, that while our soules liue in glory in heauen, our good actions
may liue vpon earth, and that they may be put into the banke and multiply,
while our bodies lie in the graue and putrifie. Whosoeuer shall receiue
such a little child in my name, receiueth me
, Mat. 18. 5.
