one inform me what became of this library, or who were the
representatives and heirs of Edward Lee, through whom this MS. may have passed to Mr. Conybeare, or give me any further particulars respecting this Edward Lee? A person who asks a question in such a publication as yours ought to endeavour to answer one. I add therefore that Mr. Thorpe--no mean authority on such a point--in his _Catalogue_ for 1834, No. 1234, says the E.F. in the title-page of _The Life of King Edward II_, represents "E. Falkland:" but he does not tell us who E. Falkland was, and it is questionable whether there was any person so named living at the time when the book in question was written. There was no Edward Lord Falkland before the reign of William III. Also, in answer to Dr. Maitland's Query respecting the fate of Bindley's copy of _Borde's Dyetary of Health_, 1567, in a priced copy of the Catalogue now before me, the name of Rodd stands as the purchaser for eleven shillings.
