- HCA 13/39-73: Examinations in equity causes; each volume covers a two year span; personal details of the deponents are in latin, but most text is in English. Entries are day by day, so details of one case may be stretched over a number of days and months

- HCA 13/100ff: Answers to bills of complaint
