註釋John Snell (1628/9-1679) was born in Ayrshire, the son of a blacksmith, and died in Oxford, where his brother-in-law was the university registrar. During his lifetime he had been a benefactor of his Alma Mater, Glasgow University but he left the proceeds of his estate in trust for the "mayntenance and education in some Colledge or Hall" at Oxford of at least five of his countrymen who had spent at least one year at the "Colledge of Glascow." Among the beneficiaries are James Stirling, Adam Smith, Matthew Bailie, John Gibson Lockhart, Archibald Campbell Tait, John Campbell Shairp, William Young Sellar, Edward Caird, Andrew Lang, William Paton Ker and George Douglas Brown
