Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Cely Papers: Selections From the Correspondence and Memoranda of the Cely Family Merchants of the Staple, A. D. 1475-1488 The Cely Papers, from which the following Letters, Bills and Memoranda are a selection, were found some years ago amongst the Chancery Miscellanea preserved in the Public Record Office, together with a portion of the Darrell, Stonor, Johnson and Fanshawe collections. Of these, the Darrell Papers were used by the late Mr. C.Long for the purpose of his articles on Wild Darrell in the ´Wiltshire Archasological Magazine.´ They, with some Stonor and Cely Papers, were preserved at that date in a portfolio amongst the Tower Miscellaneous Rolls (No.458). As a considerable body of additional Chancery correspondence was brought to light by Sir Henry Maxwell Lyte, the present Deputy Keeper, these scattered papers were placed in their proper position amongst the Mediaeval State Papers, where they form the latest portion of the new series of ´Ancient Correspondence.´ The Letters and other documents here printed form only a part of the voluminous mass of Cely Papers. Many long and intricate accounts, many small notes of sales, and some letters of no interest have been omitted. Of the letters included, many are trivial, and some of the notes on sales or on exchange are comparatively of little interest. They form, however, a fair sample of the rest. Some of the unprinted documents are badly damaged by damp and time. It is to be regretted that the series of Letters is not continuous. They extend from 1475 to 1488, but are more frequent in 1480, 1481, and especially in 1482. In 1483 there is the very interesting, but obscure, reference to the revolution which set Richard III.
