A.D. 1671.

Upon the death of Meric Casaubon, on July 14, the Library became

possessed, by his bequest, of sixty-one volumes of the _Adversaria_

(chiefly consisting of notes on Greek criticism) of his father, Isaac

Casaubon, who died in 1614. From these Jo. Christ. Wolf made some

extracts when visiting the Library in 1709, which he published in the

following year at Hamburgh, under the title of _Casauboniana_, with a

preface giving some account of all previous collections of _Ana_, and

with copious notes. The MSS. are catalogued in Mr. Coxe's first volume,

cols. 825-850.
