A second hand has added a bibliographical reference to the upper left-hand corner of f.398r. The same hand has also added a footnote to the bottom of f.398r providing further bibliographical references. There are two minor corrections to Trudaine’s memorandum. Corrected text has been written over the top of incorrect text on l.2, and there is a crossing out with the addition of corrected text superscript on l.7 of f.398r.
