This manuscript, written in the second half of the 15th century,
probably shortly after 1450, contains first (pp. 1−46) the
Constance World Chronicle from the end of the 14th century. This is
followed by the Zurich Chronicle from the beginnings to the start
of the 15th century (pp. 47−121), a continuation of the Zurich
Chronicle about the years 1420/21, 1436 and 1443−1450 (pp.
121−132), and a abbreviated edition of the Chronicle of the
Council by Ulrich of Richenthal (pp. 132−228). Based on an
examination of the handwriting, in the older literature it is
considered that the early humanist Felix Hemmerli (1388/89−1454)
from Zurich may have been the scribe. The manuscript was owned by
the Swiss scholar Aegidius Tschudi (1505−1572) and was sold to
the monastery of St. Gall by his family in February 1768. Tschudi
added various marginal notes and corrections to the texts.
