          <note>Identity of author is tentative.&lt;br/&gt;
A commonplace book containing 69 items, mainly in one hand. On the basis of writing style, nature of contents, dates of entries (1827-1871) and of the material selected (mainly poets from the late 18th to mid-19th century), and the watermark date (1810), the most likely identity of the main hand is Magdalene Sharpe-Erskine, the youngest child of the main generation who collected the Dunimarle Library. Fourteen of the items are exclusively or mainly prose, the rest are poetry.  Most are in English. About half the items are given, by the complier,  as anonymous and about a third have no title. In each case some 6 have been identified from other sources.</note>
