Deposited in the Library in 1960 and 1960 by the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths. A second set of papers were acquired at the sale of Phillipps manuscripts at Sotheby's, 26 Jun 1974. They cannot be identified with certainty in the collection of Sir Thomas Phillipps, 1st Baronet (1792-1872), though it seems likely that they were part or all of MS 15961 and 22721.
