The author cannot conclude this account of the Convent and Hospital
without expressing his cordial thanks to those from whom he has sought
assistance and criticisms. He desires especially to acknowledge his
obligations to Mr. E. Salisbury and other officials of the Public Record
Office for their courteous and patient guidance; to Mr. E. Gardner for
his kind permission to see the valuable collection of material
illustrating the history of London formerly in his possession, and to
reproduce one of the drawings in this paper; to Mr. Herbert Wigglesworth
and his assistant, Mr. L. H. Glencross, for drawings of the Chapel of
St. Mary, and for important criticisms respecting its structure and
architectural features; and to Don José Urrutia, the Abbot-Prior, and
Don Ignacio Ibarbia Fernandez de Guevara, Canon of Roncesvalles, for
much information respecting the present state of the Convent, and for
their sympathetic interest in the history of one of the ancient “cells”
of the Real Colegiata.
