a gallery, without fie, ,o the coldest weather. O. every
Friday, in all weathers, he never missed walking to some
hawse, four or live miles from Oxford, en the bank* of the
Cherwell, where he used to divas ash *. On his applica-
tion to the Bishop for ettliratioa, he was Introduced to the
Chaplain, to whom he was a stranger, and who, as usual,
told him he must examine him ; and the list aptestion pro-
posal was Quid Fides? to which Sanford ►ep!kd, is a loud

Omen in his name, Joseph Sanford, of Balliol ; Ibis made
the Bishop laugh, and exclaim, " You examine him ! why
he is aide to examine yen and our whole Bench! Pray dr-
sire him to walk up ;" when the Bishop made an apology
fur the Chaplain. and said be was sorry Mr. Seaford hail
