Education

[edit]

The article, which may have been American authored, mentioned he was educated at a grammar school in Shrewsbury. I have rephrased it as Shrewsbury grammar school and article linked it with Shrewsbury School (founded 1552, now one of the senior "public schools" of England) which was the only grammar school in the town, its original title being the "Free Grammar School". The Tudor-Jacobean stone building is now a public library since the school moved to its present home in the suburb of Kingsland.Cloptonson (talk) 20:55, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The comment, which may have been British-authored, is no doubt correct, but the edit was imperfectly carried out (leaving a stray article in the text). I've corrected that. Anything you can do to improve the coverage of this interesting man would be appreciated, of course. See History and traditions of Harvard commencements to see how is generosity is honored today (his Trust still provides prizes and so on for Harvard students).
