Transcription
Charlett introduced Lloyd and Isted to each other. He was told that Sloane is going to make a considerable donation of books to the public library. He agrees that the paper that Sloane asked about should be printed as the latter sees fit. Charlett was elected Master of University College at Oxford in 1692 and held that post until his death in 1722. Charlett used the mastership to gain influence, especially through persistent letter-writing to numerous correspondents, sharing the latest literary, political, and scholarly gossip (R. H. Darwall-Smith, Charlett, Arthur (16551722), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/5158, accessed 1 June 2011]).
