(fols. 125–132 and 153–160 form a quire which encloses one bifolium and another quire; note that this analysis remains tentative because the present binding has not been opened ; the stubs of several apparently intentionally excised folia are visible, but it is not easy to relate them to the existing quire structure; in cases where a quire presents an even number of stubs in both its halves, these have been ignored in the analysis presented here).
The leaves are somewhat dirty, especially around the edges, show occasional signs of water damage, especially in their lower portions, and are almost all frayed along the edges. Several leaves have been misplaced, as is apparent from the listing of contents above; in addition, fols. 9 and 152 have been bound upside down and fol. 73 has been bound verso-side first. Some leaves appear to have been lost, but it is not always clear whether a discontinuity in the text (before fol. , after fols. , ) signals one or more missing folia, given the somewhat draft-like character of the records (there are also unfinished and apparently abandoned sentences in the middle of some pages).
These mistakes and the irregularities in the structure of the book (insofar as it has been susceptible to analysis) suggest that the book as currently bound probably does not represent a single original unit; indeed, this binding may represent the first occasion that some of these units have been bound at all.
Text in one column, on varying numbers of lines.
Varieties of Gothic cursive in several hands of
saec. XVI
. Most of the manuscript was written by one scribe, whose cursive is the most archaic in aspect.
Pirinen (ed. 1954, xiii)
identifies him as
Jesper Sigfridsson
himself. In addition, Pirinen (ed. 1954, xiii–xvii) has distinguished a total of fourteen additional hands in this and the other surviving records from court sessions presided over by Jesper Sigfridsson (
Helsinki, National Archives, 6284a, 6312b, 6345a, 6379a
). Of these, the following were responsible also for copying parts of the present manuscript:
Hand 2
(one of the
Savonlinna castle
scribes, perhaps
Lars Andersson
) on fol. , lines 1–10, fol. , line 8, fol. , line 10–fol. , line 6, fol. , line 4–fol. , line 14, fol. , fol. , lines 1–11, fol. , lines 8–1 from below, fol. , lines 10–15, fol. , lines 6–13, fol. , lines 1–5, fol. , lines 6–3 from below, and fol. , lines 9–13;
Hand 5
(perhaps
Lars Larsson
, bailiff of the
manor of Sairila
) on fol. , line 7–5r, fol. , lines 1–11, fol. , lines 11–15, fol. , lines 11–19, fol. , line 5 from below – fol. line 3 from below, fols. , fol. , lines 10–15, fol. , lines 1–3, fol. , lines 1–10, fol. , lines 1–9, fol. , lines 1–10 and line 17 – fol. , fol. , lines 5–14 and fol. , line 10 from below – 112v;
Hand 6
(perhaps
Lars Arvidsson
, scribe for
Juva
and
Sääminki
bailiwick) on fol. , lines 12–19, fol. , lines 10–12, fol. , lines 3 – 1 from below, fol. from line 6 to the end of the page, fol. , from the middle of line 2 to line 11, fol. , lines 8–1 from below, fol. , line 7 from below – fol. , fol. line 15–fol. , fol. , lines 9–1 from below, fols. , fol. , line 6 – fol. , line 10, fol. , line 17 – fol. , line 12 and lines16–18 and fol. , middle of line 1 to line 15;
Hand 7
(apparently a member of the staff of the
manor of Rantasalmi
) on fol. , lines 5–1 from below, fol. 23, lines 11–13, fol. , line 8 – fol. 92, beginning of line 6, fol. , lines 1–7 and 16 – fol. , fol. , line 1 – middle of line 3, and lines 7–10, fol. 115, lines 7–10, fols. , fol. , lines 1–5; fol. , lines 6–10; fol. , lines 3–12 and fol. , from line 5 to the end of the page;
Hand 8
(perhaps
Paval Sigfridsson
, scribe of
Putkilahti Manor
) on fol. , lines 1–14, fol. , lines 1–7, fol. , line 7 and fol. , line 8 from below to fol. end;
Hand 9
on fol. – fol. , line 3 and fol , lines 7–11;
Hand 10
(perhaps
Michill Michillsson
, scribe of
Rantasalmi Manor
) on fol. , lines 7–9, fol. 31, lines 8–9, fol. , line 12 – fol. and fol. , lines 14–21;
Hand 11
(rubrics only) on fol. , lines 1–5, fol. , lines 1–5, fol. , lines 1–5 and an annotation on fol. ;
Hand 12
(only in
Sairila Manor
bailiwick) on fol. , from the middle of line 5 to fol. , line 10, and from line 13 on the same page to the end of the page, fols. , fol. , line 4 – fol. , fol. – fol. , line 10 and from line three from below to fol. , line 4;
Hand 13
(in
Juva
) on fol. , middle of line 6 to end of the page;
Hand 14
(only in
Visulahti
) on fol. , lines 1–5, fol. , lines 10–15 and line 16 – fol. , line 4; and
Hand 15
(only in
Juva
) on fol. , lines 9–1 from below.
The markings in pencil that supply the locations and (mostly approximate) dates for the records for which no rubric is provided or extant, are all in the same modern hand (that of Kauko Pirinen?).
Not decorated in any way; the layout serves only practical purposes and rubrics are not distinguished in any way.
Nineteenth-century
quarter leather binding, light brown leather and cardboard. The volume has been kept closed with leather straps, originally two on each cover, but both of the straps in the front cover have been severed. The spine has a paper label glued to it with the erroneous title ‘Memorial från ting i Jockas och Rantasalmi 1663–1664’; a later hand has corrected the dates in pencil.
The original (draft)
records of court sessions
in
1563
and
1564
, presided over by
Jesper Sigfredsson
in lieu of the appointed judge, the warden of Viipuri castle,
Claus Christersson Horn
(
Pirinen ed. 1954, viii
). They were prepared by Jesper and several assistants when the court was in session or very soon after, and include also the records of two second-tier court sessions presided over by
Claus Åkesson Tott
and
Olav Henriksson
.
The records would originally have been preserved probably in
Savonlinna castle
.
The constituent parts of the present manuscript were taken to the archives of
Vaasa Court of Appeals
(
Hovrätt
) apparently sometime between
1776 and 1839
when northern Savo was part of the jurisdiction of that court (
Pirinen ed. 1956, vi
)., and were bound there in the later nineteenth century. The manuscript was deposited in the
Vaasa Provincial Archives
with the series of court records from Vaasa Court of Appeals.
Inside front cover, in pencil: ‘J:1’ and ‘Savon Tuomiokirjat 1563–1564’ and ‘Kassakaapissa’.
K. Pirinen ed.,
Savon tuomiokirjat 1559 ja 1561–1565
(Suomen vanhimmat tuomiokirjat vol. 1), Helsinki 1954.
