Books

Trinder's will has no reference to books; his estate was divided between his son John and two daughters, Jane and Bridget. His library, together with that of "Mr Rice of Furnival's Inn", was sold in London by retail sale beginning 22 February 1712. No catalogue survives but the sale was advertised in The Daily Courant, "consisting of very valuable books of law, divinity, history, &c ... several of the law large paper and written references, also manuscripts".
