Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'I received them (six plates of Coins of Carausius) [from?] Dr. Ducarel, but he had the year preceding recommended me to Mr. Foote, Rector of Foxal, in Staffordshire, who had a considerable collection of Coins of that Empr. ... Mr. Foote call'd on me by Dr. Ducarels direction & gave me a direction where he lodg'd, but not precise enough. He brought me Begers Thesaurus Bra'denb.'

(Lukis 1882-1887, vol. 1 pp. 83-4)
