Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I thought I had wrote you that I copy’d above three hundred Greek Inscriptions in Asia Minor, and brought thence a very numerous Collection of rare or not describ’d Medals, with several other Antiquities. The Inſcriptions I have put into the hands of the Reverend Mr. Chishull, formerly Chaplain at Smyrna, who copy'd several during his Residence in those Parts ... The Medals are partly gravd in Mr. Hyam's Tesoro Britannico, Vol. II. just publish'd, and the Remainder will be in the third and last Volume this Year.' (Moyle 1726, vol. 1, pp. 416-19; Burnett 2020b, p. 610)
