Custodial History
Endorsed by Rawlinson with notes that it had been given to him by Mr. Whiston, bookseller, and had been printed by Dr. Newton, the Principal of Hertford College, without acknowledgment that he had it from Rawlinson. Where it is to be found in print does not, however, appear; it is not in Newton's anonymous treatise published in 1743, entitled Pluralities indefensible.
