Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I am very sorry and strangely surprized to hear the bad news of the death of Dr. Kennedy, who certainly was a person profoundly skilled in the knowledge of medals; and had, I believe, the best collection of Roman coins of any private gentleman in the kingdom. I should be glad to hear how he has disposed of his coins. I hope he has given them to some public repository; thinking it very indiscreet in any person that has been at such infinite pains and expence in procuring those curious and valuable remains of antiquity, to suffer their collections to be sold and dispersed about piece-meal.' (Nichols 1817-1858, vol. 4, pp. 208-9; Burnett 2020b, pp. 641-2)
