38729
Note: this is a list of the documents which include an
agreement or other papers which give the terms of a contract. There are a
few other receipts in this MS. which cannot be related to agreements, and
have not, therefore been used or listed. In the last column * indicates that
the book has not been traced; I have searched the catalogs of the British
Library, Bodleian Library, Oxford, and University Library, Cambridge,
and the National Union Catalog, together with appropriate
subject bibliographies, and Watt's Bibliotheca
Britannica.
