Bound manuscript by James Forbes entitled "Bills, Feathers, Eggs, etc., of various Birds in the Torrid Zones", 1818.

Two works by Hugh Edwin Strickland bound in a single volume: "On the evidence of the former existence of Struthious birds distinct from the Dodo, in the islands near Mauritius", 1844 and "List of Unfigured Species of Birds, the type-specimens of which exist in the India House or in the Museum of the Zoological Society", 1853.

This scrapbook consists of press cuttings, the provenance is unknown. The volume contains the bookplate of Lucy Adela Jenner and it is possible that this is an indication of the provenance of the suffrage cuttings. The suffrage press-cuttings, including from the local press in London and Hampshire are about the suffrage campaigns, 1908-1909.

Additional press-cuttings from a press agency from 1918-1919 and those relating to domestic service, appear to have been added at a later date [possibly from the same added by the Library source as those in 10/06].
