Transcript of MSS of the Autobiography, made by Charles Best Norcliffe in preparation for the printed edition of 1875.
Inscribed: The three volumes were lent to C B N by the Rev H G W Camber in the year 1861 and were abstracted and arranged as follows, with a view to printing the work. Circumstances postponing that design, and the Societys' editors being behind hand with their work, the secretary persuaded C B Norcliffe to give the Society all his labour, and all his notes, which were on separate pieces of paper, and allow Mr Charles Jackson to appear as editor on condition of his services being properly acknowledged.
From the Howard-Vyse family of Langton Hall.
