A careful literal transcript of the Laudian Græco-Latin Acts (no. 1119 = MS. Laud Gr. 35) known as codex E of the Acts: with palæographical notes.

The word 'Hansell' on the lettering of the back seems to show that this was the work of Edward Halifax Hansell, fellow of Magdalen college, Oxford (d. 1884).
