LIBER F.

August 8, 1636, to August 28, 1642.
Original missing.

COPIES.

Land Office Records, L. O. R., Liber No. 1, pp. 1-161.
Council Proceedings, Liber C. B., 1636-1657.

The Land Office copy forms pp. 1 to 161 of Liber No. 1 of their
Records. It was made in 1724, and its correctness is attested as in the
case of Liber Z.

It is, with a few exceptions, a daily record of the land business of the
Province. The entries up to p. 30 are somewhat confused as to dates,
but after this the volume proceeds with regularity.

The original volume, according to this copy, had 176 pages; but of
these, pp. 6, 12, 13, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 44, 54, 67, 69, 76, 77, 80, 93,
94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 116, do not appear in this copy; and the
single short entries from some of the pages indicate that this is not a full
copy of the original.

The entries on pp. 1-8, viz., Petition of Claiborne 1636/7, Order of
the King, Feb. 26, 1637/8, and proceedings of the Privy Council, April
4, 1638, are in Council Proceedings 1636-1657, p. 4-10.

The Proclamation of Cecilius, Lord Baltimore, appointing Leonard
Calvert Governor, April 15, 1637 (pp. 8-17), is in Council Proceedings
1636-1657, pp. 11-19.

The Letter of Cecilius, Conditions of Plantation, Aug. 8, 1636, on
pp. 28-30, is in Council Proceedings 1636-1657, pp. 1-3. There are no
Acts nor Proceedings of the Assembly in this volume.
