Dean Frederic William Farrar (Bombay, 7 August 1831 - Canterbury, 22 March 1903) was a senior-ranking cleric of the Church of England (Anglican), schoolteacher and author. He was a pallbearer at the funeral of Charles Darwin in 1882. He was a member of the Cambridge Apostles secret society. He was the Archdeacon of Westminster from 1883 to 1894, and Dean of Canterbury from 1895 until 1903. On Darwin's nomination, Farrar was elected to the Royal Society in 1866. When Darwin died in 1882, the then Canon Farrar helped get the church's permission for him to be buried in Westminster Abbey and preached at his funeral. Henry Hart Milman (10 February 1791 - 24 September 1868) was an English historian and ecclesiastic. In 1835, Sir Robert Peel made him Rector of St Margaret's, Westminster, and Canon of Westminster, and in 1849 he became Dean of St Paul's. Arthur Penrhyn Stanley, FRS (13 December 1815 - 18 July 1881), was an English Anglican priest and ecclesiastical historian. He was Dean of Westminster from 1864 to 1881. Westminster Abbey, formally titled the Collegiate Church of Saint Peter at Westminster, is an Anglican church in the City of Westminster, London, England. Since 1066, it has been the location of the coronations of 40 English and British monarchs, and a burial site for 18 English, Scottish, and British monarchs. At least 16 royal weddings have taken place at the abbey since 1100. Although the origins of the church are obscure, there was certainly an abbey operating on the site by the mid-10th century housing Benedictine monks. The church got its first grand building in the 1060s under the auspices of the English king Edward the Confessor, who is buried inside. Construction of the present church began in 1245 on the orders of Henry III. The monastery was dissolved in 1559 and the church was made a royal peculiarâ"a Church of England church responsible directly to the sovereignâ"by Elizabeth I. In 1987, the abbey, together with the Palace of Westminster and St. Margaret's Church, was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site because of its historic and symbolic significance. The Gothic architecture of the church is chiefly inspired by French and English styles from the 13th century, although some sections of the church show earlier Romanesque styles, or later Baroque and modern styles. The Henry VII Chapel at the east end of the church is a typical example of Perpendicular Gothic architecture; the antiquarian John Leland said of it that it was orbis miraculum ("the wonder of the world"). The abbey is the burial site of more than 3,300 people, many of prominence in British history: monarchs, prime ministers, poets laureate, actors, scientists, military leaders, and the Unknown Warrior. Due to the fame of the figures buried there, artist William Morris described the abbey in 1900 as a "National Valhalla" Presumed First Edition, First printing thus.

ONE: Savory's letter. 1p., 4to. In fair condition, lightly aged and creased. He begins by stating that he has 'now heard that the whole of the specimens which have been prepared are at Messrs Arthur Lee & Bros., Hayes. As I told you before Mr. John A. Marshall, the Architect of the new Westminster Cathedral and the authority on the subject of ancient Marbles, is very interested in this collection, and may of the specimens which are there have been prepared at his desire to illustrate a lecture which he is giving before a Society of Architects.' Those 'anxious to get something entirely unique in house decoration' should find this a 'special opportunity, as it is quite certain that there is no other such collection in the United Kingdom'. He is enclosing 'a few notes which have been written with respect to them [i.e. Item Two, below]'. He concludes by stating that if Langsford can find a buyer, he would be pleased to arrange satisfactory terms. John A. Marshall, 'of Bentley's office', was responsible for the interior fitting out of Westminster Cathedral, but it is not known whether he acquired the Savory collection. TWO: Manuscript titled 'Ancient Marbles', and signed at end 'Caleb White | July 1910'. 3pp., 4to. In fair condition, on aged paper, with some damage to the inner margin of the three leaves After a brief introduction regarding 'Collections of Marble used in Ancient Rome' the piece turns to what it claims is 'perhaps however the most unique & most interesting (of which a description has never before been published) [.] the Collection brought some time before into this Country by Mr. E. W. Savory the well known Art Dealer & Connoisseur who came across them whilst hunting for Art Treasures in the Ancient City. He found them stowed out of sight in the yard of a stone cutter (scarpellino) where they had probably been for years, perhaps collected centuries ago when such things were more easily obtained & handed down from father to son'. The collection is said to consist of 'actual pieces of ancient work being portions of carved & fluted columns, mlded doorways & enriched caps & pavements all of which shew the ancient workmanship & which may have at one timem adorned the palace of an Emperor [.] Amongst the pieces of green & purple porphyry are fair sized lumps in the rough state apparently exactly as they were brought from Egyypt & Greecec by the Romans'. Also present are 'pieces of heavy serpentine called Pietra nefritica (a kidney) being in the form of a flattened sphere or a large round loaf'. White remains unidentified.
