1828-1834
A collection of extracts and notes on alchemy, with a detailed account of the unidentified author's own experiments. This set of MSS. seems to have been begun in 1828 [cf. Vol. I] and the latest date found is in Vol. V, p. 102 'Aujourd'hui 1. Ap. 1834'. On fol. 772 of Vol. I he speaks of having been engaged on alchemical researches 'pendant plus de 30 ans', and on pp. 74-77 of the same volume, he gives details of various experiments and processes tried out from 1810 to 1825.
