The Tower manuscript was bought by Kidson at Towle's auction in Paris in 1928 for £60. He later sold it to the British Museum for £85. The manuscript remained there until the last years of World War II when it was given to Mr and Mrs Sparks of New York, who passed it on to the British Museum where it now is. Mr Sparks was Marghanita's next of kin. Kidson informed her of its acceptance into the British Museum in 1937 and she approached the British Museum to arrange a visit, but she died in 1938 before her request was approved. By 1941 the British Museum was in a very poor state having suffered bombing during World War II. Many of the manuscripts were burned but Kidson did save, box by box, manuscripts marked with the licence number of the buyer, the identity of the person who bought them and registration numbers for each item until the British Museum felt they could reorder and conserve them. In 1946 Kidson was able to look round what had been destroyed and concluded that everything that could be saved was there. He began offering items for sale in an effort to raise funds for repairs. In the course of his work he came to realise that Marghanita Laski's Tower manuscript was missing and he decided to put it on the market. In the case of the Tower and other works Marghanita's descendants concur with Kidson's assessment. I. L. Kidson, an amateur bookseller, who bought it in 1928 from Marghanita's nephew, Mr J B Taylor, is to be congratulated on his careful resuscitation of this manuscript, which seconds the great historian's opinion, that the manuscript is of the greatest importance to the archaeology of the period. It is a remarkably rare copy for which the British Museum should be extremely grateful. Dated 1928 but remains of the original parchment and binding may be retained. d2c66b5586
