MS copies of the correspondence of Newton and Roger Cotes and others, gathered in preparation for Edleston's Correspondence of Sir Isaac Newton and Professor Cotes, including Letters of Other Prominent Men (London, 1850). This group of copies does not include all of the letters printed, but does include some materials gathered for the notes to the life of Newton at the front of the volume. There are a letter from Dawson Turner dated 24 Mar. 1848 forwarding a transcription of a letter from Bentley (not present) and referring to other letters in his collection, and three printed figures, two of which were printed in the volume.
