This is a fragment of a larger codex manuscript. The three manuscripts Paris, Bibl. nat., ms. fr. 8551 and Besançon, Bibl. mun., mss. 914 and 914 appear to be fragments of the same accounts. All were part of the massive 3-volume collection assembled by A.-A. Monteil (cf. Benton-Fohlen, p. 501 and Monteil, II:210), which was later taken apart for sale, possibly also by Monteil.
