London.  August 17.  The Duke of Marlborough paid a debt for
the city of Oxford, which had lain heavy upon the
inhabitants for more than half a century, amounting in the
whole to 5983 L. 7s. 2d.  On this occasion the bells were
set a ringing, and the freemen were entertained, by the
liberality of his grace, at more than 50 houses.
