ANNUAL MEETING. 151 



lago stated that he had been in correspondence with his Lordship 

 in reference to it, — all reliable means being adopted for 

 clearing up doubtful passages. Mr. lago acknowledged the great 

 courtesy he had received from the Bishop of Oxford, and stated 

 that his Lordship had presented him with an abstract, which he 

 had kindly written out for him,* of St. Dunstan's letter stating 

 what part Dunstan had taken in consecrating a Bishop for the 

 Cornish See, — and what property in Cornwall belonged to the 

 Bishops of the West in and before his own day. Mr. lago had also 

 had correspondence with Dr. Stubbs about the ancient Bishops of 

 Cornwall, Crediton, &c., as given in Game's and other lists, and 

 had been convinced that the most correct list is chat which so 

 great an authority as Bishop Stubbs has himseK contributed to 

 the Truro Diocesan Kalendar, — which list may be seen in the 

 current number of that comprehensive publication. Mr. lago 

 illustrated his account of the venerable book and his contents 

 by means of a large sized drawing which he had made of it, in 

 the British Museum, and photographs of the ancient hand- 

 writing. 



A somewhat similar Book of the Grospels, known as Lord 

 Ashburnham's, on the-coverof which the crucifix and jewels 

 remain, was figured in the " Illustrated London News " of June 

 20, 1891, and is valued at £10,000. 



At the close of the Meeting, votes of thanks were passed 

 to those who had been benefactors to the Library and Museum, 

 and had contributed Papers, &c. Also to Mr. Enys for presiding. 



Tea, coffee, and other refreshments were afterwards served 

 in the outer Library. 



* The Bishop of Oxford has since been so kind as to forward to Mr. lago, a 

 copy of " Anecdota Oxoniensia," — containing a full version and critical account 

 of St. Dunstan's letter, by Professor Napier.
