Several years ago I described the collection of the papers of James Phipps in the Public Record Office. This was based on a preliminary arrangement of these materials. Since that time these papers have been calendared and somewhat re-arranged. In addition they have been foliated, allowing for a greater understanding of the bulk of this collection, and for easier access and more exact description of specific kinds of data. Finally, my own use of the Phipps papers makes it possible to add some commentary that was not possible before. All of this makes it advisable - even imperative - to describe these materials once more, particularly since relying on my earlier account could mislead interested parties, especially those who may have recourse to the post.
