Note AK — THE 'LIVES'
Reading edition
In MS. Aubr. 8, fol. 7, is the memorandum:—'Insert ♡ to Liber B.'—'Liber B.' was a volume of antiquarian notes, collected by Aubrey, now lost (Macray's Annals of the Bodleian, p. 367). Aubrey wanted to copy into it something from this MS. ♡. Two other memoranda in the same place are:—(a) 'William Aubrey, LL.D.: extract out of De jure feciali, and De legati deliquentis judice competente, by Dr. Zouch,' as is done supra, p. 58; (b) 'Memorandum the xx s. per annum bread at St. Benet's, Paul's wharf'; see supra, p. 61.
Aubrey, in MS. Ballard 14, fol. 119, writing to Anthony Wood on Aug. 29, 1676, says:—'This day accidentally Mr. St. George shewed me my grandfather, Dr. William Aubrey's, life in their office' <i.e. the College of Arms>, 'written, I suppose, by Sir Daniel Dun, his son-in-lawe. He came to Oxon at 14, and was LL. Dr. at 25.'
