Provenance and Acquisition
These papers bear notes by John Price, Bodley's Librarian (1768–1813) and probably passed, like MS. Add. C. 259, into the hands of his successor, Bulkeley Bandinel (Bodley's Librarian 1813–1860). At Bandinel's death in 1861, these papers must have passed into the possession of the Bodleian
