A letter from the Earl Marshall to Mr Oldenburg was read proposing a way of investing the £400 legacy to some 'considerable citizens' where his friends had lodged large sums of money.

After debate it was agreed to refer this matter to another meeting of the Council, and in the meantime thanking the Lord Marshall for his efforts on behalf of the Society.
