O knihe

Excerpt from Remains, Historical and Literary, Connected With the Palatine Counties of Lancaster and Chester, Vol. 49

It was then found that Mr. Raines' Life broke off at the year 1642, and that no notes for any later period had been made by him, or at least had not been preserved, and also that many documents pertaining to anterior dates had been merely alluded to and not transcribed. His references, too, were often obscure and required verification, and, in fact, it was felt absolutely essential to examine afresh the whole of the C/eet/zam A155. And other sources of information.

A short time ago Mr. H. T. Crofton drew the atten tion of the Editor to certain Chetham papers in the Clowes family muniments, which had been examined by Dr. Fleming some sixty years ago, and had since slum bered undisturbed in the offices of a firm of Solicitors in Manchester, but had recently been transferred to the custody of Mr. Joshua Bury, the agent for the Clowes estates. Through the kindness of Mr. Bury permission was obtained from Captain Clowes to rummage among a dozen boxes of dusty papers, and the search has yielded several interesting pieces of information which have been of service, and especially in the compilation of the gene alogy of the Chetham family.
