Origen del ingreso
There have been several accruals. Nos.1-69 and 77-79 are believed to have been acquired from a London auction by Bertram Rota in the 1960s, perhaps in the interest of providing palaeographic materials for a course at McMaster. The provenance of Nos.70-74 and 76 are not known. No. 75 (29-1995) was donated in 1995 by R.H. McNairn. His father, William Harvey McNairn, of McMaster University, Toronto, had purchased the document on 13 June 1916 from Reginald Atkinson, bookseller, in London, England. W.H. McNairn was a professor of geology but also produced scholarly papers on medieval history. Receipts and a letter from Atkinson pertaining to the purchase, together with a cardboard sleeve once used to house the item, are located in the master file. A typescript transcription of the item itself has been included with the document.
