John Ward, LL.D., a Professor in Gresham College, who died in 1758, had in 1754 put in trust £1200 Bank Stock, to be applied after his decease to the education of two young men at a Scotch University with a view to the ministry, preference being given to baptists. Additions have subsequently been made to the fund, through occasional vacancies, and by the late Rev. Joseph Hughes, A.M., and the Rev. Joseph Angus, A.M., who repaid all they had received. The students are taken from the several baptist colleges indifferently according to merit: three are supported by it at the present time. In the list of those who have received the benefit of this Trust, are the names of Caleb Evans, Robert Hall, Joseph Hughes, J. H. Hinton, John Hoppu, James Acworth, Samuel Tomkins, C. M. Birrell, Joseph Angus and Francis Tucker.
