page 21 note 8 When writing about the selection of receavours and triers of petitions, Browne began in English, but he wrote above the line ‘in French’ and crossed out his English (D.J., p. 5). In the printed Journal (iv, p. 48), the phrase is interpreted as part of the text rather than as an editorial note.
