cxlvi APPENDIX TO THE 



Mrs Powny told me Sir Fra. Bacon and the Lord Falkland came one 

 day purposely from London to sup and discourse with him, and return'd 

 early next morning. 



Mr Ha. like Paule at Damascus, eate not in 3 dayes. 



I thinke he bought and gave the howse in which he dyed to Mrs 

 Pownye's husband, who had been his honest servant of which q 



I have heard that Mr Ha. being suppos'd to hold some heterodox 

 opinions, he, to testifie the contrary, did in his sickness (which was not 

 long,) declare his beleife to his pupell, the Lady Salter's son, which he 

 tooke in his writing from his owne mouth. This, Mr Salter (who is now 

 dead,) told me long since, and promised me a Copie of it. 



Mr Montague, formerly the scolem r of that college and now fellow 'tis 

 like has it, and he hath promis'd me to write and give me what materiall 

 passages he can rem r concerning him, and he will give them to Mr- Marryot 

 if the be cal'd for. 



He or Mrs Powny will answere all the q as to the yeare of his deth, 

 and who was at the charge of his monument, how long he lay sick, his 

 behaviour then, and what ells is defective in theise collections gathered by 

 me. Mrs Powny dwells nere the college, and Mr Montague is constantly 

 in it being now sickly. 



As you reade this make y r que. and let them be given to me or Mr 

 Marryot who may get a resolution for you. J. \V. Octo. 20, 73. 



I think the Lady Salter did many yeares since tell me she had the pro- 

 fession of the beliefe taken by her son, Salter, from Mr Hales' mouth. 

 If she have it, I will endeavour to get it of her. Her Husband's name was 

 Sir William, her son's name, Emund. (? William, see Will.) 



Then was told this by Mr Anthony Faringdon, and have heard it 

 discourst by others, that Mr Thomas Gary, a poet of note, and a great 

 libertine in his life and talke, and one that had in his youth bein ac- 

 quainted with Mr Ha. sent for Mr Hales to come to him in a dangerous 

 fit of sickness, and desired his advice and absolution, which Mr Hales, 

 uppon a promise of amendment, gave him, (this was I think in the 

 country.) But Mr Gary came to London, fell to his old company, and 

 into a more visable scandalous life, and especially in his Discourse, and be 

 (being?) taken very sick, that which proved his last, and being much 

 trowbled in mind procured Mr Ha. to come to him in this his sickness 

 and agony of minde, desyring earnestly, after a confession of many of 

 his sins to have his Prayers and his absolution. Mr Ha. told him he 

 shood have his Prayers, but wood by noe meanes give him then either the 

 sacrament or absolution. 



The following was communicated by N. Ingelo, dated, Eton Coll. Oct. 

 29. ( l6 75 ? ) to Mr Marriot. The writer begs his hearty respects to Mr 

 Isaac Walton.
