Histoire archivistique
The volume containing the original notes made by Dr Hopkinson was loaned to William Clift by Dr Whitsed from 1827-1835. Clift had a copy made of the manuscript (see MS0007/1/7/5/2), and returned the volume to Dr Whitsed, as is evidenced by the letter from Clift at the front of the Whitsed transcription. Dr Whitsed made a transcription of the original volume, which was given to Thomas James Walker by Dr Whitsed's daughter after his death. This volume is the transcription, indicated by the first paragraph of the index at the back of volume, which is initalled J W, and explains the presence of the letter from William Clift at the beginning of the volume.
