The Osborn Manuscript Files contain single, unbound manuscripts and small groups of manuscripts acquired for the Osborn Collection which the Library has chosen to describe in finding-aid style lists rather than as discrete entries in Yale University Library's on-line public access catalog (ORBIS). The materials in the Osborn Manuscript Files include literary and historical manuscripts, individual and small groups of letters, and single documents, as well as some "Unprocessed" material such as engraved portraits and bibliographic information.

From Lord Berners' illegitimate son
to his father's brother, a few days
after Berners' death. Bourchier
explains his father's plans to repay
Henry VIII. Hastings, who was an
executor and whose wife Bourchier
implies was his father's mistress,
has managed to take more than his
share of Berners' estate. Bourchier
wants to restore his father's honor
and pay off his debts, as well as to
dispense honestly with his wealth.
