Scholar's bookplate to inner cover (G. P. Goold). Foxing/dustsoiling to top of textblock. Light rubbing to DJ. ; 168 pages; Agathias or Agathias Scholasticus (c. AD 536-582/594) , of Myrina, an Aeolian city in western Asia Minor, was a Greek poet and the historian who is a principal source for that part of the reign of Justinian I covered in his history. He studied law at Alexandria, returned to Constantinople in 554 to finish his training and practised as an advocate (scholasticus) in the courts. Literature, however, was his favourite pursuit. He wrote a number of short love-poems in epic metre, called Daphniaca. He also put together an anthology of epigrams by earlier and contemporary poets and himself, under the title of a Cycle of New Epigrams. Agathias re-edited the Greek Anthology, which preserves about a hundred of his epigrams, showing considerable taste and elegance. He also wrote marginal notes on the Periegetes of Pausanias. After the death of Justinian (565) , some of Agathias's friends persuaded him to write the history of his own times. This work in five books, On the Reign of Justinian, continues the history of Procopius, whose style it imitates, and is the chief authority for the period 552-558. It deals chiefly with the struggles of the Byzantine army, under the command of the eunuch Narses, against the Goths, Vandals, Franks and Persians.

Casamajor is taking 'the earliest opportunity' to inform Mrs Curling 'by the last Packet' that he has 'received an Account. from my agent in Antigua that the Court of Chancery in that Island had disallowed all Charges of Interest on the Arrears of the Annuities on the late Mathew Christians Estates amounting to £2567.2.5 also the Trustees Commission of £50 a year for 16 years to this our Counsel'. The Attorney General filed a Bill of Exceptions 'but they were overuled by the Court & the Masters report confirmed'; he prayed an appeal to 'this decretal Order' 'as directed to do altho' he says that the reasons given by the Master in his report were such as he could not sufficiently answer'. The agent has deferred sending the papers as they are 'so voluminous that the expence of sending them by the Packet would be enormous'. Casamajor now gives a quotation from a letter of the Attorney General regarding 'appeals from the Plantations' before describing 'former proceedings' in the case and his agents claim for factorage 'seeing it was likely to create delay and procrastination he waved the claim that the parties might not longer be kept out of their money he took the Masters Acct. up to the 8th. May last and received £2968:18:3 which is allowed to be due'. He considers that the 'business in future . promises to be regularly conducted'. A postscript concerns the 'considerable' expense of an appeal. St Helens Place, London; 19 January 1809. unknown
