The manuscript was first brought to public attention by the noted antiquary Edmond Turnor (1754-1829), who published a selection of passages and an introduction in the proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries in 1794 (Archaeologia, XI, pp. 22-33), and by direct descent from whom the manuscript is now offered for sale for the first time since the 17th century. 'The book, beginning in the year 1545 [sic], contains, principally, notes of the cattle belonging to ... Thomas Cony; inventories of his household-goods and plate at Bassingthorpe; his profits and losses in trade, etc. and the amount of his income and expences for fifty-four years ... He was the son of Richard Cony of Bassingthorpe, Esq. merchant of the Staple of Calais, who died in 1545, from whom he inherited a considerable property ... He was taken prisoner at Calais in 1558, when that town was surrendered to the Duke of Guise, and conveyed captive to Boulogne, where, after two months severe confinement, he was ransomed at the price of 374l ... In 1573 he was high sheriff of Rutland ... He much increased his estate, as appears by a rental of it in 1577 ... [His] line of trade, by which this great fortune was raised, was extremely lucrative. The merchants of the Staple had almost a monopoly of all wools exported; nor were the merchant adventurers [of whom Cony was also a member], who trade likewise in wools, a company less respectable' (Turnor, pp. 22-3). Provenance: 1) Sir Edmund Turnor (1619-1707) of Stoke Rochford, with his engraved bookplate and dated 1702 and a note by his descendant Edmund Turnor (1754-1829) in his manuscript introduction, reading: 'This book was amongst the writings relating to the Manor of North Stoke purchased of William Cony Esq. by Sir Edmund Turnor Knt 1671'). 2) Edmund Turnor (1754-1829) of Stoke Rochford, landowner and antiquary. 3) Thence by descent.Front joint is cracked and very tender.
