A handsomely bound Portuguese-printed Roman missal, which, despite later confusion in an inscription to a blank fly-leaf, earlier manuscript letters inserted suggest that this was seized from the flagship of the usurper Dom Miguel, the 80-gun Don Juan, during the 1833 Battle of Cape St. Vincent, passing through the hands of several clergymen before being presented to Grayfriar's, Oxford.
