      note: "Armorial bookplate of [Thomas?] Bateman of Middleton Hall (by Youlgrave) in the County of Derby; bought with money from the Rustat Fund at the Bateman sale at Sotheby's, May 1893. A cutting from a sale catalogue is pasted to the front pastedown, presumably from the Bateman sale.  On an inserted leaf at the front is a record of a legal squabble, in an eighteenth-century hand, concerning the family of François Auderget of Cormeunbeuf.  With a memorandum from J. & J. Leighton to Francis Jenkinson, about the incompleteness of the volume: 'We beg to say the 'Belial' was sold as stated, with '55 leaves', which always implies that a book is doubtful or imperfect & is not returnable.  We thought you knew it wanted some leaves'.  Also with correspondence from Kurt Ohly to J. C. T. Oates (dated 1957-1959) concerning the book."
