Excerpt from Catalogue of the Manuscripts and Muniments of Alleyn's College of God's Gift at Dulwich: Second Series The most important of the records calendared here are (1) the series of weekly account books kept by the Wardens, which extend, with one break between August 1642 and February from November 1627 to February 1775.

In these accounts the Wardens entered every item of expenditure; and, as all payments connected with the College were made by them, these volumes serve not only as a record of prices during a period of 150 years, but, interspersed as the accounts are with memoranda of College business, afford an insight into the management of a corporation that provided for a master, warden, four fellows, twelve poor brethren and sisters, and twelve poor scholars.
