- Notes:
- "In his rather lengthy section on law books, apparently a specialty, Kimpton had books once owned by the Bishop of Peterborough and by Justice Gaselee (pp. 12, 15), the former likely being Herbert Marsh, Bishop of Peterborough, and the latter being the British judge Stephen Gaselee. Both Marsh and Gaselee had died recently -- in 1839."--Vendor's description.
