Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Calendar of Norwich Deeds: Enrolled in the Court Rolls of That City, 1307-1341 The following Calendar of Norwich Deeds enrolled from 1307 to 1341, is a continuation of a similar calendar compiled by the Rev. W. Hudson and myself for the period from 1285 to 1306, which was issued by the Norfolk and Norwich Archaeological Society in 1903. This continuation was compiled for the Corporation of Norwich by Miss Edith Crosse (now Mrs. MacKinnon), under the supervision of Mr. J. C. Tingey, F.S.A., the Hon. Archivist. As both of them had left Norwich and as the MS. Calendar remained in the Castle un-indexed and practically unavailable to the public, I offered to print and index it at my own expense, and to write an introduction to it on the lines of that which I wrote for the first part, and my offer having been accepted by the Council of the City of Norwich, I proceeded with the work, and was about to issue it to subscribers, when it occurred to me that it would be better it should be issued to the members of the Norfolk and Norwich Archaeological Society, so that they should have a continuation of the volume already issued to them. I therefore made an arrangement with the Society to enable this to be done, and the result is now before my readers. I must express the great obligations I am under to Mr. F. Johnson, the present Archivist, for the extreme care with which he has gone through the proofs of the present volume, and the minuteness with which he has examined my numerous queries as to suggested variorum readings, and to Mr. R. Hewlett, F.S.A., for many very valuable corrections and suggestions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
