Another MS which does not occur in the above list is Lambeth 436, Horologium Sapientiae, of cent. xv, which has in it: Liber cartusie de Witham. Orate pro Johanne Blacman.
MS. 182 at S. John's College, Oxford, containing lives of saints, formerly belonged to William and John Blacman.
In Laud Misc. 152, no. 2 in the list, dated 1463, are these doggerel lines:
Me dedit albus homo John Blacman ipse vocatus
In presente domo qui redditus est graduatus
Extitit Oxonie vir in artibus iste magister,
Cantor et Etonie dignus dum rege minister
Pro quo defuncto seu viuo queso precare
P............ quicumque solet celebrare
Ut deus hunc Hominem Nigrum cognomine dictum
Post vite finem det sumere lucis amictum.
Amen.
