Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

Lettre du 12 septembre 1719 (sans lieu): Mr. Poynter of Merton College has a collection of medals found at Towcester and other towns in Northamptonshire. ‘I would gladly know what he has yet are curious, either for the Heads or Reverses.’ Thanks for papers H. has copied from the Ashmolean: the originals are very faulty and don’t answer expectation. Will talk with Dr. Mead about Fordun, when he returns to London. (Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Rawl. letters 3 fol. 111).
