Somehow or other shortly after its publicatn. a copy of
this pampht found its way into the little circulating library
belonging to a little coffee-house called Harper's coffee-house
attached as it were to Queen's College Oxford and deriving
from the popularity of that College the whole of its
subsistence. It was a corner-house having one front
towards the High Street, another towards a narrow
lane whh. on that side skirts Qu.'s Coll. and loses itself
in a lane issuing from one of the gates of New Coll.
To this library the subscriptn. was a shillg. a term. Of this subscrn.
the produce was composed of two or three newsprs. with
mags. one or two & now & then a newly published
pamphlet : a moderate sized octavo was a rare if
ever exemplifd. spectacle : composed partly of pamphlets,
partly of Mags. half-bound together a few dozen vols.
composed this library whh. formed so curious a contrast
with the Bodln. Libry. & those of Chr. Chh. & All Soul's.
The year 1768 was the latest of the years in whh. Mr. Bentham I
ever made at Oxford a residence of more than a day or two.
The occasion of that visit was the giving his my vote in the qualy.
of Mast. of Arts for the Univ. of Oxfd. on the occasion of a
Parly. electn., and not being at that time arrived at the
age of 21 this deficiency in the article of age might have
given occasion to an electn. contest in the H. of Coms. had
not the majority been put out of doubt by a sufficient
number of votes not exposed to contestatn.
