in this book. However, there are tithe notations opposite many of the names, suggesting that the book was written for one purpose then used for another.

Despite this heading, this book covers one year, not two. In 1581, Easter fell on 26 March,
just one day after Lady Day, when the ecclesiastical year changed; so parts of the book were completed
in February and March 1580/1 and the remainder in March 1581.

Unlike all the other books in this series, this document is not a book, it's a large sheet of
paper folded in an accordion format, resulting in four columns on each side, eight columns total.
To see one side of this document, click here. Names of token recipients appear
in all eight columns, though one of the columns has only three names. Some of the columns are
upside-down in relation to other columns, though all the images have been turned right side up.
All the columns have lines drawn vertically through all
the names, suggesting cancellation, though the exact purpose of the lines isn't clear. Also, the
names do not appear in street-order as they do in the other books; they are randomly listed. The
book contains names from Boroughside, Bankside, and Paris Garden.
At the top of what we are arbitrarily calling column 4 appears the following:

The book has 40 pages.
There is a title on p.1 and a further heading on p.3, as shown below.
Despite this heading, the book covers one year, not two.
There is a possible explanation for the heading showing two years.
In 1597, Easter fell on 27 March,
just two days after Lady Day, when the ecclesiastical year changed; so parts of the book would have beeb completed
in February and March 1596/7 and the remainder in March 1597.
Easter fell on or before 27 March in other years as well, during the period covered by the token books,
but this is the only instance of the cover page of a token book reflecting this duality on its cover.
On the back cover (p.38): symon shyne to be presentyd gaynste

given to the poor of the parish, has accordingly been renumbered as P92/SAV/1752A.
Though it contains names as do many other parish documents it has not been included here because it is not a token book.
It is a single leaf, with the heading shown below:

The book has no cover; names of token recipients appear on pp.1-22.
The book has 24 pages.
The book appears to have been used for two years. Like almost all other books in this series, this
book has been given archival page numbers, beginning with 1 and ending with 24. In the section beginning
on p.1 and headed 1631, names occur on pp.1-10. But then the book was reversed, with a new
first page on what is now archivally numbered 22, with names continuing backward through the book from p.22 to p.11.
The page numbers in our transcription follow the archival page numbers in the book, though we understand that this will result in some confusion
about those reversed pages, where the numbers will seem to run backwards.
There are two headings, on pp.1 and 22:
1631 parsheh garden liberty [and on page 22, with the book reversed:]

The book is very poorly written, by a scribe whose command of orthography regularly
abandoned him, and who often over-wrote his own mis-spellings. As a result, the book is hard to
read, and many of the names are likely spelled oddly. No attempt has been made to correct these
oddities.
