Consolidated catalogue of 1695: The Book of the Junior Proctor (MacGregor, ed.) [Addendum 6] Mr. Crynes's account of the Feather-piece which he left to the Museum. This Mexican Feather-piece was given to Mrs. Margaret Dawson (one of the Gentlewomen of the Bedchamber to Mary of Modena, wife of King James the Second, as her nephew said; & as appears by the printed depositions on the birth of the Prince of Wales) by the said Queen Mary. Mrs Dawson left it by will to her nephew Dr. Harrison of All Souls, after whose death I bought it. N. Crynes Mr. John Shippen told me he saw five pictures of the same kind in the King of Spain's Cabinet (I think) at the Escurial.
