Transcription
[fol. 57] Sr If your Servant will be willing to open your Doors to morrow Morning, I intend to be with you as soon as light, and hope in 2 or 3 hours to examine most of the Duplicates, especially if I can borrow another of Dr Hyde’s Bodleian Catalogues. Sal.m. Aug. 31. 1700. Ar. Cht.
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 18 June 2013]).
