[39] From an ‘Anominalle Cronicle,’ once belonging to St. Mary’s Abbey, York. The original apparently has been lost, and the copy now existing is a late sixteenth-century manuscript of this portion of the Chronicle in the handwriting of Francis Thynne. It is now preserved in the British Museum (Stowe MS. 1047), and was one of the Duke of Buckingham’s MSS. in the library at Stowe, Bucks, which came into the possession of the Earl of Ashburnham, and was sold by his son to the nation. It was published by Mr. G. M. Trevelyan in the English Historical Review, vol. xiii. (1898), p. 509. It is a curious circumstance, that it may be referred to as the ‘Stowe MS.,’ because it comes from the Stowe collection, or as the ‘Stow MS.,’ because it was used by the historian, John Stow.
