IV. Observations on the Seal of Ethilwald Bishop of Dunwich, lately discovered at Eye, in Suffolk: by Hudson Gurney, Esq. M.P. F.R.S. Vice-President. In a Letter to Henry Ellis, Esq. F.R.S. Secretary.

Extract

By the kindness of Mr. Fenner, of Eye, I have now the pleasure of sending you the Seal, of which I before forwarded you the impression, for the inspection of the Society.

It appears to have been the Seal of Ethilwald Bishop of Dunwich, of whom the “Profession of Faith,” addressed to Celnoth Archbishop of Canterbury from A.D. 830 to 870, is referred to by Wharton in the Appendix to the Anglia Sacra, vol. I. p. 801, as existing in the Cottonian MS. Cleopatra, E. 1. in the British Museum.
