This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the publisher to a library and finally to you.
Usage guidelines
Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.

The present Tolume continues the Catalogue of the Additional HSS., in order of acquisition, from the year 1861 to the end of 1875, and includes descriptions of the Papyri, Additional Bolls and Charters, Detached Seals and Casts, Egerton Manu- scripts, and Egerton Charters, acquired during the period from 1854 to 1875. It completes the Catalogue of acquisitions for those years, with the exception of manuscripts in Oriental bmguageSy which are separately described in the series of Oriental Cstalogaes.
It has been an object, in this as in the preceding volume, to pnt as much information into the descriptions of the manuscripts as was compatible with conciseness ; and every volume is noticed. But it was necessary to deal more briefly with the mass of docu- ments comprehended under the general term of Charters. The number of these acquired in the twenty-two years, from 1854 to 1875, amounts to more than sixteen thousand, comprising not only grants of lands and other charters properly so called, but Court-rolls of manors. Bailiffs' Accounts, Wills, and not a few State documents. It would have been impracticable to describe these individually ; and the aim has been to give a general view of the collection, in such a form as might be useful as a guide to the entries in the detaUed Catalogue of the Bolls and Charters, still in manuscript.
Among so large a number of manuscripts and single docu- ments as are described in the present volume, not under heads of subjects but in order of their acquisition, it will be a labour of

An Index to the two volumes of the Catalogue of Additional Manuscripts acquired in the years 1854^1875 is in preparation, and will be printed in a separate volume.
And I take this opportunity to make known that a general Index to the whole series of documents classed under the designation of ^^ Bolls and Charters/' in the Cottonian, HArleian, Additional, and other collections, has been commenced, and, when complete, will be printed.
In connection with the present volume, I desire specially to acknowledge the very efficient help of my colleague, Mr. Thompson, Assistant Keeper, and of Mr. Scott and Mr, Warner, Senior Assistants. I have myself taken part in the first descrip- tions for both this and the preceding volume, and have revised the sheets throughout.
