Copy written in an unidentified hand of Alexander Carlyle's 'Recollections'., 1801-1805.

 Item
Identifier: MS.23910

Scope and Contents

The copy is written on sheets watermarked 1801 (folios 1-74) and 1805 (folios 75-134). They record events in Alexander Carlyle's life between 1723 and 1737 and appear to have been written before the autobiography, as revised portions appear to have been incorporated into it. Many passages have been lightly deleted and other marks made in pencil.
