#######. Archdeacon Glover arrived, – a profound scholar,
who has ########lately been employed with Mr Pettigrew in compiling a Catalogue of the Duke of Sussex’s library.
He promises during his stay here to assist me through the
Greek
MSS. (####### many of which are not at all noticed by Roscoe).
We began on those which are in the worst condition, & most difficult
to read, & altho’ we proceed but slowly, yet it is with advantage.
Capt. Greville dined here.
