[British, R. Rawlinson, c.1750s.]
Engraved facsimile of the Latin tally of one Thomas Godsire; transcription below, with large margins. 105 x 175mm, 4½ x 7". Several fold creases (one splitting in lower margin). A little soiled and stained.
Tally sticks served as records or receipts for financial transactions such as the payment of taxes, debts and fines. From the 12th century onward tally sticks were officially employed by the Exchequer of England to collect the King's taxes. In recording a debt, wooden sticks were often split horizontally into two parts: the lender receiving one part, the stock; and the debtor, the other part, the foil. Sticks dating from 1296 were found in the Chapel of the Pyx, Westminster Abbey in 1808. England abolished the use of tally sticks in 1826. This tally is from the collection of Richard Rawlinson (1690 - 1755), a clergyman and antiquarian who bequeathed a huge collection of books and manuscripts to the Bodleian Library, Oxford. In 1716 he was ordained, but as he was a nonjuror and Jacobite, the ceremony was performed by a nonjuring bishop, Jeremy Collier. In 1728 he became a bishop, but seems to have preferred to pass his time in collecting books and manuscripts, pictures and curiosities, rather than in discharging his episcopal functions. At his death Rawlinson left to the Library 5,205 manuscripts bound in volumes that include many rare broadsides and other printed ephemera, his curiosities, and some other property that endowed a professorship of Anglo-Saxon at Oxford. The Rawlinsonian Professor of Anglo-Saxon was first appointed in 1795. He was also a benefactor to St John's College, Oxford.

Letterpress and engraving. Two sheets double-side. 216 x 171mm. 8½ x 6¾".
St. Editha's Church stands as Queen over Tamworth, dating back to the early Saxon days. It was ransacked, as was the town, and destroyed after the Danish raids of 874 and 943. A Norman church was built in its place, of which parts still stand, but that was later destroyed by a fire in 1345. Parts of the church are made up of various parts of every rebuild, so can date back to the 12th century, and every century thereafter. Drayton Manor was built for the first Robert Peel around 1790, father of Robert Peel the Prime Minister who is commemorated with a statue in the centre of Tamworth. The most important visit to Tamworth and this manor was in 1843 when Queen Victoria and Prince Albert stopped by during their tour of the Midlands. This poem encapsulates this visits and Tamworth's history.
