Folio edition, iii. 692.] The original of this doc.u.ment was probably among the Paston MSS. when Blomefield composed his _History of Norfolk_, but where it is at present cannot be ascertained. It is cited by Blomefield, or perhaps by his continuator, Mr. Parkin, as 'a very long but narrow roll,' then in his possession. The text, however, does not seem to be printed entire, as the Editor only professes to give 'several particulars therein.']
