'CATALOGUS Librorum Manuscriptorum Johannis Theyer': list of 336 MSS. collected by john Theyer of Cooper's Hill, Brockworth, co. Glouc., and inherited on his death (1673) by his grandson, Charles Theyer, and by him sold to Robert Scott, bookseller, from whom they were ultimately purchased by Charles II for the Royal Library. The list is accompanied by two valuations, one that of Scott, amounting to £ 841 12s., the other, amounting to £572 3s. 6d., made (probably on the King's behalf) by William Beveridge, Rector of St. Peter's, Cornhill (afterwards Bishop of St. Asaph, 1704-1708), and William Jane, Canon of Christ Church, Oxford (and Regius Professor of Divinity, 1680-1707), signed and dated (f. 2) 29 July, 1678. The list is referred to as 'Theyer sale-cat.' in the present Catalogue. Another list of the same collection (omitting 24 unimportant items) is in Harley MS. 695, f. 313, and is printed, with some corruptions, in Bernard's Catal. MSS. Angliae.
On f. 1 b is a scrap of 15th cent. accompts relating to stables, &c.
