He died in his 78th year, Jan. 17, 1705-6. in a house of his own, at Black Notley, the place of his birth; where the following inscription on an elegant cenotaph, erected at the sole cost and charge of Dr. Henry Compton, bishop of London, thus preserves his memory: "Eruditissimi viri JOANNIS RAII, A.

Mr. D'Oyly was a man of great taste and learning; but was of an uncommon corpulence, which prevented his attending his duty as an army-chaplain in Flanders in the war of 1741, as no horse could carry him. Archbishop Herring, when dean of Rochester, thus mentions him in his eighth letter to Mr. Duncombe, dated from that city, Dec. 17, 1735: "Mr. D'Oyly spent an evening with me lately; he is much your humble servant, and a very genteel and agreeable companion." And in his twentyeighth letter, dated Kensington, May 18, 1748: "Poor D'Oyly's death I heard of the day after it happened. I remember his collection of books. I should be glad to see a catalogue of them, and possibly I might think of purchasing them." They were afterwards bought by Mr. Whiston the bookseller. VOL. I.
