David, if you think the audience in Kalamazoo would be different from the
audience in Leeds, I could give a talk on the Percies that would be similar
to last summer's in Leeds, but slightly different. I could focus on
problems and opportunities in the Percy documents--they are scattered among
various repositories; relationships among the incomplete financial records
are unclear; some entries can be interpreted in different ways; the MSS do
not confirm or deny the historical veracity of the Household Books. On the
other hand, the MSS provide concrete evidence of specific dramatic
activities, and offer some sidelights on the times, such as the payments for
"intelligencers."
Anyone who was at Leeds would recognize this paper as a revision (rehash?)
of the Leeds paper. What do you think?
Thanks,
Bob

There is room for one more paper in the MRDS session on household
records. Anyone interested?
