Two volumes containing 'Sermons By the Rev. Matthew Henry Copied from the original MSS by Henry James Stedman' between 16 October 1823 and 28 January 1824. The sermons bear the general title 'Reasons for Practical Religion' and correspond to the series described by W. Tong in An account of the life and death of the late Reverend Mr Matthew Henry (London, 1716), pp. 175-6, except that not all sermons are to be found in the transcript (see Vol.I, p. 34n.). The introductory sermon is dated May 10 [16]96 and the series belongs to the period 1696-7.

Contemporary copies of two sermons preached by Dr. [Samuel] Benion and [Matthew] Henry at Broad Oak, co. Flint, 28 May, 1707, on the occasion of the death [? funeral] of the latter's mother Mrs. Katharin Henry. The first sermon is said to have been 'Occasion'd likewise by the death of Mr. Pell'.

Three holograph letters:- from [Philip Henry] to his son Mr. Matthew Henry, near the Sugar-House in Chester, 1689 (a collection for the relief of George Speak, a proposed fast for Ireland, personal); from John Flamstead, first astronomer royal, to [William Lloyd, bishop of St. Asaph], undated (the calculation of eclipses) (mutilated); and from [Thomas Tenison], archbishop of Canterbury, to [bishop William Lloyd], 1702 (a fixed allowance for Mr. Peters, the collation of mandates); together with copious endorsements in the hand of bishop William Lloyd.
