About this collection:

The Carleton University Archives and Research Collections purchased their folios, and others, such as the two manuscript books (ms. 1 and ms. 2), were donated by Hugh Andrew MacDougall. It is likely that the manuscripts were donated to St. Patrick’s College in 1960 after his return from Cambridge, England (probably where they were either purchased by or given to him). St. Patrick’s College became part of Carleton University in 1967.
