James Humphrey addendum to James Humphrey's Book of forms
Manuscripts
In 1568 James Humphrey assembled and copied out a miscellany of models, forms, and calculations which were in use at the time, to serve as a working manual for other clerks and administrators. Sometime after 1580, Humphrey transcribed materials for this second Book of forms. Some of the contents duplicate sections in the 1568 book, but some sections are new. This manuscript contains ten pages of tables for computing costs of cheese, beef, and herring in varying quantities, and table of allowances for victualing ships. It also contains forms for pressing and recruiting mariners (giving specific dates, places, and names), and where and when to report for duty. New to this manuscript includes forms for searching and salvaging ship materials, for recording identities, destinations, and cargoes of merchants and mariners, for recording names of murdered men and their murderers, as well as cause of death, weapon used, and other details.
