'La Somme appelle La Miroir a Justices, vel Speculum Justiciariorum factum per Andream Horne', in five chapters, copied, as a note on fol. 3 states, from an old MS. belonging to Francis Tate (d. 1616), collated with a MS. at Corpus Christi college, Cambridge. Horne was probably not the author, but reviser or editor. Some notices of Horne are transcribed on fol. 2. See no. 12067.
