Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".
'We dined at good Mr. Parker's, who has erected an hospital at Waddington, in Yorkshire, for ten widows, and a chaplain to read prayers to them forenoon and after, and endowed it already with 50l. per annum, which, he told me, he designs to increase the salary of at his death: they have already received 50l. per annum for several years, agreeable to his motto in my album, "bis dat qui cito dat." . After dinner, we saw a few of his curiosities, particularly the pedigree of King James from Adam, with the pretended coats of arms; and a large silver seal, for the approbation of ministers in the late times ; but the key of his cabinet of coins (formerly Mr. Brearcliffe's, of Halifiix) could not be found.' (Hunter 1830, vol. 1, p. 395; Burnett 2020b, p. 714 n. 115)
