“ After the death of James Hewitt, William determined to endow a Scholarship at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, of which both brothers had formerly been members, and to nominate the Colchester School in perpetuity as beneficiary. A sum of £2,450 was conveyed to Corpus Christi College for the establishment of an Exhibition, preference in which was always to be given to a candidate from Colchester Royal Grammar School nominated by the Headmaster and Governors, the Exhibition being tenable from the candidate's entrance to the College to the time when he stood for the degree of Bachelor. ”

“ After many years devoted to the profession of teaching, these brothers settled at Lower Park, Dedham, where they continued to interest themselves actively in local education, and especially in the affairs of the Colchester Royal Grammar School. ”

“ If there were no suitable candidate, the College was to settle the grant upon a student of their own choice, subject to certain restrictions, until it could be conferred once more upon a candidate " duly nominated and qualified . ”
