Sermons of Ludovick Grant, Episcopal minister at Fortrose
Scope and Contents
Manuscript volume, rebound and with the bookplate of Alexander Thomson of Banchory (1798-1868). Title page reads 'Select Sermons written by Mr Ludovick Grant. Fortrose. June 18 1748'.
Pagination restarts with each sermon in the front section. From the front, the first entry is dated June 18 1748 and the final entry is dated 27 Feb 1749. From the back, the only visible date is 16 May 1743. The back section is not paginated. There are two flyleaves at the front and back. One is a marbelled new edition during the rebinding. The other is made of the original fly leaf attached to a thick card, which presumably causes loss of text at both the start and end of the volume. The visible text on the fly leaves is very faded, but the text in the rest of the volume is clear.
