walls, where crippled and bulged, have been carefully taken down and rebuilt. This tower is now completely restored, with the exception of the conical leaden roof.”
There are notices of the completion of improvements at the east end of the Cathedral, in the Mint Yard, &c., and of the adaptation of the ancient Brewhouse to the purposes of a Choristers' School, with "a large and commodious Singing School for the Choir rehearsals.
"These last-mentioned works bring the improvements in the Precincts to an end; and it is hoped that the whole Fabric Fund may hereafter be available for the restoration and improvement of the Cathedral itself and its appendages."
The Report for 1866-7, after recording the completion of some works mentioned in previous years, enters into a statement of the state of the Fabric Fund. Of the 20,000l., with interest, which the Ecclesiastical Commissioners had agreed, in 1862, to pay to the Chapter, there remained a surplus of about 12007.; and, when this shall have been expended, the Chapter would have only its ordinary Fabric Fund for restorations and improve
"During the summer it became questionable whether the plan proposed in my last Report of restoring the old Choristers' School, as an addition to the present Library, were feasible; and after some deliberation, it was agreed to build a new Library on part of the site of the old Dormitory. . . . The building is about half completed. It is hoped that this room may be ready for the occupancy of the Chapter as their Audit-room (the idea of fitting up the Treasury for that purpose having been for the present abandoned) by Midsummer next 2."
The Report for 1867-8 is not in the Dean's handwriting, and the works which it records are (as might have been expected from the explanations of 1867) on a reduced scale. The chief feature is the restoration of St. Anselm's Chapel. The Report for 1868-9, after speaking of "the absorption of
2 The idea of building a new Library on the site here described was suggested by the Auditor of the Cathedral, Mr. T. G. Faussett. The building was used for the first time on occasion of the Kentish Archæological Association's Congress, July 30 and 31, 1868; and the books were removed into it in the beginning of the following year, so that it wore the appearance of a Library when used as the scene of a luncheon given by the Dean and Canons on the day of Archbishop Tait's enthronement, Feb. 4, 1869.
a great portion of the Fabric Fund in the cost of the new Library," proceeds:
"Our attention has been chiefly directed to removing the old brick sash-windowed Audit-room, and making good the ancient walls and arcading thus exposed to view. This process has been nearly completed as regards the west face of the Treasury, the adjoining face of the Lay Clerks' Vestry or St. Andrew's Chapel, and the stump of the Norman Tower adjoining it.
"That portion of Henry de Estria's screen which formerly occupied the site of Archbishop Howley's cenotaph, has been repaired and restored, ready for erection when the masonry shutting out St. Andrew's Chapel from the Cathedral is taken down."
In the Report for 1869-70, the Dean says, "Our works have again this year been subjected to almost entire suspension on account of the determination, since the last Report, to undertake the warming of the Cathedral.
"Of the works mentioned in the last Report as apportioned to the present year, the new north staircase only has been proceeded with. That is now completed, and in use."
To this Report is appended a Balance-sheet, showing the expenditure of all the money which had passed through the Dean's hands as Treasurer of the Fabric Fund. The date of the Report, Dec. 8, 1870, throws a peculiar light on the fact of his having taken that opportunity to sum up his accounts with the Chapter.
