Extract

The Manuscript, from which the following description is taken, is conjectured to have belonged to one of the Wriothesleys, afterwards Garter, King of Arms, and seems to have been written at different times, during the reigns of Edward IV., Richard III., Henry VII., and Henry VIII. It is a quarto volume, of about two hundred leaves of paper, and contains miscellaneous entries on heraldic affairs, but chiefly Lists of Knights, and Coats of Arms.
