1 The will of Harvey is without date. But was almost certainly made some time 

 in the course of 1652. He speaks of certain deeds of declaration bearing date the 

 10th of July, 1651 ; and he provides money for the completion of the buildings which 

 he has " already begun to erect within the College of Physicians." Now these struc- 

 tures were finished in the early part of 1653. The will was, therefore, written 

 between July 1651, and Febraruy 1653. The codicil is also undated: but we may 

 presume that it was added shortly- before Sunday the 28th of December 1656, the 

 day on which Harvey reads over the whole document and formally declares and 

 publishes it as his last will and testament in the presence of his friend Henneage 

 Finch, and his faithful servant John Raby.
