Ellen Mathews collection
This collection consists of one handwritten notary register (1579-1582) and two letters (1848) from notaries. The specific contents of the register are unknown because of the difficulty in translating its classical French style. Two faculty members who have dealt with such writings have been consulted, but neither could translate the document.
