Manuscripts on vellum; written in humanistic cursive in Latin and Italian. Each volume shows a different and particular hand of execution with regard to illumination as well as to writing., Binding: each volume bound in white vellum over boards., Pages numbered in black ink, upper left verso and right recto; leaves on volume 6 numbered on upper right recto., Title devised by cataloger., Numbering: volume 1: 33 pages (pages 31-33 blank); volume 2: 90 pages (page 90 blank); volume 3: 56 pages (page 56 blank); volume 4: 52 pages (pages 50-52 blank); volume 5: 118 pages (pages 117-118 blank) ; volume 6: 56 leaves., The first page of each volume has the emblem of Venice and the coat of arms of the appointee for governership within a decorative border. The appointee's coat of arms is at bottom, while the winged Lion of Saint Mark is in the upper field. That the Lion is poised on both earth and water is significant: its stance alludes to Venice's power on land and sea. The beast also holds an open book, which refers to Venice's legendary association with Saint Mark the Evangelist. Also notable in the decorative border of volume 3 are the Angel Gabriel and Virgin Mary at upper left and right corners, two bishop saints at center left and right, and Saint Francis of Assisi and Anthony of Egypt at lower left and right corners. All volumes have colored and calligraphed initials on first pages and colored capitals in text in colors throughout volumes., Also available in original print http://morris.law.yale.edu/record=b451623, Digital reproduction.

In 1569, the Venetian patrician Giovanni Soranzo held this position, and he commissioned this illuminated legal document, the first page of which includes his name in large golden letters; his patron saint, John the Baptist, in the upper left corner; and his coat of arms in the lower margin. A Giuramento was issued to all six counselors of Venice and included a description of the doge's responsibilities. Counselors were members of the Collegio, the government’s highest executive committee. Two years before his appointment as counselor, Soranzo had served as the Venetian governor of Bergamo, in northern Italy., Volume inscribed by Giovanni Soranzo on the page (page [1], 2nd group of paging) preceding the illuminated page about his reelection as counselor in April of 1574. It appears that this manuscript was his personal copy, which bears his name in the illuminated page with the date 1569. , Also available in original print http://morris.law.yale.edu/record=b451624, Digital reproduction.

Account book dates from the early years of Davenport's legal career. Among his clients were Timothy Dwight IV (1752-1817), then a distinguished minister and schoolmaster in Fairfield, later president of Yale, and Joel Barlow (1754-1817), the notable poet, diplomat, and politician, then living in Hartford. Other clients belonged to such prominent Connecticut families as the Beaches, Merritts, Seymours, and Whitneys. Perhaps the most intriguing client (?) was "Tom [,] Negro of A.W. [or A.T.] Watson," who engaged Davenport's services in 1791 and paid the balance in his labor. (Slavery was abolished in Connecticut in 1848.) It is also possible that he was loaned to Davenport to pay a debt. However, Tom is listed in the index, which is a list of clients.
