Title
A name given to the resource
The Great Chronicle of London, edited by A.H. Thomas and I.D. Thornley
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Numerous chronicles recounting the history of England were produced in London in the fifteenth century, and all were published anonymously. They also all borrowed and copied information from each other, as well as other sources. Robert Fabyan's (d. 1513) name became attached to a work known as The Newe Cronycles of England and Fraunce, and later, John Stow, in the sixteenth-century, confused this work with another now known today as The Great Chronicle. Whether Fabyan actually had a hand in The Great Chronicle is impossible to tell: at the very least both works draw on the same sources, and manuscripts of them appear to be written in the same hand.

Dr Hocken's Original Pictures
Description
An account of the resource
This showcase offers a representational sample of the pictures that Dr T. M. Hocken gave in trust for the people of New Zealand. At the time of his death in 1910 he had amassed 437 pictorial items, a collection of more than 4,000 printed volumes, as well as photographs, manuscripts and maps. Collectively these items are the Hocken Library’s founding gift and Dr Hocken’s abiding interest in the history of Southern New Zealand continues to shape what the Hocken collects today and preserves for the future benefit of researchers.

R.A. of London, a well known artist & a friend of Ruskin & Rosetti. It represents a group of Maori chiefs & their wives, the inetrpreter, the Rev. Dr & Mrs Jobson, & Mrs Brames Hall assembled in a room in Wesley’s house, London, & was intended to commemorate the Wesleyan Missionary Jubilee. The Maoris, in charge of the interpreter, visited England to gain an idea of its greatness & resource; the expedition was undertaken with the sanction of the New Zealand Government. The received the most hospitable reception from the Queen & from the highest persons in the Kingdom. The Queen was godmother of a Maori boy born during the visit- November 1863- The picture indicates the meeting of the civilised Maori with the Missionary, to whose labours his advancement is due. It was intended that it should hang in the Mission Hall & Mr Swales, a publisher in Darlington, undertook to publish a jubilee print from it. But the scheme fell through. [Text obscured] … The picture, for which Mr Smetham received one hundred & fifty guineas was sent to New Zealand for sale, the price asked being 200 guineas. After a curious history it finally came into my possession. The portraits, Mrs Smetham informs me, are all careful likenesses. T.M. Hocken, Dunedin 1889.
