History

Remarks

From a binding. MS Frag. 18–26 originally formed pastedowns in the binding in the bindings of books which were rebound about 1873, or which have perished. These fragments were apparently sorted and identified by a visitor to the Library about 1920 (see folder of correspondence in safe). Bindings in XVIII.J.27 Box 2.
