Collections and papers of John Walker, chiefly biographical, Written in about 1704-1715
Collections and papers of John Walker, chiefly biographical, on which was founded his Attempt towards ... an Account of the numbers and sufferings of the Clergy of the Church of England (see above: Lond. 1714, fol.). The arrangement is roughly in 'Centuries' of papers, as they reached Walker, and the majority of them are letters addressed to him or to his London agent, Robert Clavell, but many original papers and copies by Walker are interspersed.
Resembles MS. J. Walker c. 5, with (fol. 70) some papers about dr. Geo. Webbe, bp. of Limerick, and (fol. 198) a few Scotch documents.
