Cotton MS., Nero, D. vii.

Cotton MS., Julius, B. ii.

A London Chronicle extending from 1189 to 1432, and probably written about 1435.

Cotton MS., Cleopatra, C. iv.

Among other items contains a London Chronicle, written in three different fifteenth-century hands, and covering the years 1414-43.

Cotton MS., Vitellius, A. xvi.

A London Chronicle, in three different hands, and written at three different periods, covering the years 1399-1516, though up to 1440 it is almost identical with the two chronicles above.

These three chronicles all bear a strong affinity to Lond. Chron. and Gregory. (See [Printed Books. Contemporary Chroniclers who wrote in England.]) Since the references have been taken for the present work, all three, with the exception of the earlier part of Vitellius, A. xvi., have been printed in ‘Chronicles of London,’ ed. by C. L. Kingsford. Oxford, 1905. The references to the folios of the MSS. have been retained, as thereby the various authorities can be distinguished, and their verification does not necessitate recourse to the MSS., as Mr. Kingsford has marked the folios in the margin to the text of his edition. An excellent discussion of the dates of compilation and the relationship between these and other London Chronicles is to be found in Mr. Kingsford’s introduction.

Holkham Hall

In a MS. belonging to Lord Leicester there is contained, amongst other entries in a seventeenth-century hand, a life of Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester, entitled ‘The Historie of the high borne Renowned and most illustriously noble Prince Humphrie, commonly called The good Duke of Gloucester, by J. C. Philopatris.’ J. C. stands for John Cooper, and the whole compilation is a mere copying of sixteenth-century chroniclers, and has no historical value. It has been referred to in the notes more as an indication of its scope than as an authority.

Cited as Holkham MS.

N.B.—Various Manuscripts, which originally formed part of the Duke of Gloucester’s Library, are alluded to and quoted in the text. These are described in detail in Appendix A., and are therefore not enumerated here.
