Excerpt from A Calendar of the Register of Archbishop FleminIn attempting to ascertain how far the Register remains in its original state, how much Of it has been lost, and to what extent leaves have been transferred from their places, we must fix our attention mainly on two features of the manuscript. It happens that in a good many cases a docu ment begins on one leaf and ends on another. Such leaves must have been consecutive from the first. And again, most Of the leaves are still attached to their conjugates. Where two leaves were successive it may be assumed that their conjugates were likewise successive. We shall also receive assistance from the fact that, in addition to the numbering of the leaves which corresponds with the present state Of the Register, and which was added in the seventeenth century, there are considerable remains of an older numeration which apparently belongs to the sixteenth century.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
