Bookplate: "WHC" (WIlliam Hayman Cummings). "Bought at Dr. W.H. Cummings sale (lot 1395 on 23 May 1917) at Sotheby's for £20?? It is all in Purcell's handwiriting & bits of his signature have been cut out from pages 203 & 225 (probably) but one is still on p. 260? These pages have evidently formed part of a larger book judging from the pagination. Ralph Griffin. Inner Temple, 25.3.1917"
