Archbishop Thomas Herring bequeathed £1000 in south-sea annuities to the college in 1757 'as his acknowledgement of the favour conferred upon his relations, and as his contribution to rebuilding the college'. The college was charged with the payment of annuities of £10 per annum to two of Herring's servants, Samuel Furze, his coachman, and Edward Swallow, his butler.
