Summary
Notes: Transcripts are clearly identifiable; they are on smaller paper with a left hand margin. Columns 2 and 3 identify the source of Mead transcripts.
Columns 2 transcripts summarise news from a variety of sources, including letters and corantos from Europe and domestic news. Mead appears to be transcribing summaries assembled in London.
Column 3 transcripts have datelines and text apparently word for word from European originals. Other transcriptions referring to foreign sources, whether included in the London Summaries (Column 2) or in Mead’s letters, are less likely to have datelines and text in a form that suggests they have been copied directly.
Mead’s letters are not included unless they have evidence of a coranto or foreign news source as shown in column 5.
