Mr Kees or Keyes - was the 1st. colletor of Newport.
He founded the episcopal school & left enough
to support an assistant to Trinity church
{Dean} Berkely left the organ to the church & nothing
more. He gave the income of Whitehall to the
benefit of certain students of Yale college. This
place has since been converted into a house of
entertainment & the philosophers study into a bar
-room. It is an error that {Dean} {Berkely} founded the
episcopal school, where Notchall taught
The Kittereenes Chair was brought first by {Dean} {Berkely}
& by Sir J. James. It was a light chair body screwed
on to the Shafts (w.c were 14 feet long,) and was placed
between the axle tree & the horse. It was very easy &
not easily overset. {Colonel} Brindley had one made from it
