About this work

Description

The date 1702 occurs on p. 187, but there is a reference on p. 207 to 'M. Le Maréchal de Saxe' (i.e. Hermann Moritz de Saxe [1696-1750]), in an added receipt written apparently by the same hand as the rest of the MS. As he did not attain this rank until 1744, the MS. was perhaps originally compiled about the date suggested above.
