Transcription
Hearne forwards ‘3 setts of Camden’s [history of] Eliz[abeth]. [on] small paper’. Sloane owes him a second payment of ’30s’ for it. A copy of the advertisement is enclosed (fol. 88). Thomas Hearne (bap. 1678, d. 1735) was an antiquary and diarist. He began working at the Bodleian Library in 1701. A nonjuror, his refusal to take an oath of allegiance to King George I led to his dismissal from the Bodleian in 1716. Hearne published the works of several English chroniclers (Theodor Harmsen, Hearne, Thomas (bap. 1678, d. 1735), Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 [http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/12827, accessed 2 June 2011]).
