Chambercombe Park Terrace, Ilfracombe, N. Devon; addressed to Hall at The Vicarage, Barton Turf, Norwich, Norfolk. - Will be pleased to accept 10 shillings for the autograph book; thinks it must have been the work of her grandmother or great aunt. Hall mentions the Paston family: her own ancestors of that name came from Beaudesert, Warwickshire, and she does not know of anything connecting them with the family of the same name from Norfolk. Wishes her father, who had a 'head for heraldry', was alive to 'chat with' Hall.

(Most of the entries for 1800 and 1801 are grouped by year and arranged in alphabetical order, but there are some additional entries for both years at the end.)

(The entries for 1790-9 are grouped by year and arranged either in chronological order (1790-3) or in alphabetical order of correspondent (1796-9), while the entries for 1799 and 1800 are mixed together in alphabetical order. Entries for Nos. 21-5 (letters from Turner to his mother) were added at the end in the same hand as the preceding entries. A few entries were added later by Dawson Turner.)

(The reference to a letter from James Dalton dated 13 Jan. is apparently a mistaken reference to a sheet which forms part of No. 26. This error probably occurred because the inscription ‘No. 13’ at the head of the sheet was mistaken for ‘Jan. 13’ and the letters ‘T.O.’ (‘turn over’) at the foot were mistaken for ‘J. D.’)

(The list is arranged in alphabetical order of the correspondents’ names. There are a number of errors and omissions, including the following. There are no entries for Nos. 30, 32, 62, 80, 80a, 96, or 119, or for TURN II II1/1. No. 125 is undated. No. 23 is dated 17 Mar. and No. 113 is dated 11 Oct.)

(The index, which covers the contents of the two volumes O.13.17 and O.13.18, is arranged in alphabetical order of the correspondents’ names and is in two parts, one for names from A to K, the other for names from L to W.)

(This index covers the contents of the two volumes O.13.13 and O.13.14. There are two lists, one for names beginning with the letters A to J, and one of C. D. E. Konig’s letters; the other for the rest.)

(The index, which covers the contents of the two volumes O.13.19 and O.13.20, is arranged in alphabetical order of the correspondents’ names and is in two parts, one for names from A to K, the other for names from L to W.)

(This list contains the correspondents’ names in alphabetical order, and the dates of their letters. It is in two parts, each headed ‘Contents | 1821’, the first part containing names beginning with the letters from A to K, the second names beginning with the letters from L to Y. On the back of the preceding flyleaf is the following note: ‘The Index in this Volume comprehends all the Letters of the year 1821, &, consequently, not those alone which are bound in the present Volume, but equally those in the following one.’)

(There are two lists, one for each year. The 1805 list includes five items from 1804 (Nos. 82-3, 90, 95, and 97), one from 1806 (No. 187), and a number of undated entries, of which one is probably No. 113, which was written in 1802, and two others probably relate to two letters in the next volume (Nos. 28 and 46) which are not mentioned in the index to that volume.)

(There are two lists, one for each year.)

(The index is headed ‘Alphabetical Index from January to December 1817’, but in fact only covers the contents of the present volume.)
