ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Professor James Robson was kind enough to point
out typographical and other errors in the first
three fascicles, and it was possible to make the
necessary changes in most copies before they
were sent out •^ ;
It is a real pleasure for the Cataloguer to
acknowledge his kindness further, for he has
looked through the draft of these notes before
they wore mimeographed, but he did not have acce
to the Manuscripts. Grateful thenlcs are accorded
to him for all his help and generous advice.
