An extract from a sermon. The text is unclear.
Four unbound folio sheets with a smaller slip inserted. Written in an elegant italic hand, with a few corrections and alterations.
Part of the Spencer Stanhope of Horsforth, family and estate records (SpSt). The records were gathered from the 16th century until the late 18th century. The Stanhope MSS were kept at Bradford City Library, Sheffield City Library, and the Brotherton Library (Leeds) until 1955, when they were divided up. From 1955 onward, the Horsforth papers were kept at Bradford, and the Cawthorne papers were kept at Sheffield. Some South Yorkshire papers are still kept at Bradford, e.g. most of the medieval deeds.
