Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Romance of Wills and Testaments By way of preface it is necessary to explain the sources from which the material for the following pages is taken. The chief feature of these essays consists, I think, in the large amount of original matter rescued from the multitudinous Ms. volumes of wills, &c., which are preserved at Somerset House and elsewhere. As in death, so in those volumes, small and great rest side by side. Of the majority their wills, or, if they died without wills, their intestacies, are their only memorials. But it is fascinating to come suddenly upon some well-known name. In a volume of intestacies of the year 1674, for instance, is an entry stating that administration was granted to Elizabeth Milton, widow of John Milton, late of the parish of St. Giles, Cripplegate, his nuncupative will not having been proved - " testamento nuncupativo dicti defuncti... per antedictam Elizabetham Milton allegato nondum probato."
