Scope note
A style of letterlocking referred to directly by Elizabeth I, but unattested. She requested that a letter be refolded “in a small plight like those of her own hand, and so sealed” (Sir Thomas Lake to Robert Cecil Earl of Salisbury, 28 January 1596, Hatfield, Cecil papers, vol. 6, p. 31 entry 67).
