On two fly-leaves at the beginning is scribbled:

  1. "A catalouge of Mr. Smith's bookes," commencing with Hammond's Practical Catechism, and ending thus, "58. A great book in parchment dobled. / 9 other great books in folio. / A book of heraldry."
  2. On the reverse of the second fly-leaf is the following note: "Read over this book, (lent me by Thomas Rawlinson, esq) in Oct. 23, 1720, and then extracted some things from it. Tho. Hearne." These extracts are to be found in vol. xc. of Hearne's MS. Diary, in the Bodleian library, pp. 92–101.
