Grant to Robert White

English, 1513/14. Illuminated document sealed by the King of Arms. Illumination consists primarily of the heraldic shield with crest, a floral border with the Royal badge, and an extremely old-fashioned initial (gold letter on blue background with some whitework). Appears to be written in French.
