3. The department of the Chancery, into which fees were paid for the sealing and enrolment of charters and other documents. Abolished by Statute 2 & 3 Wm. IV, c. 11 (1832).
So called, according to some, because documents that had passed the Great Seal were here kept in hanaperio, in a hanaper (sense 2), until the fees thereon were paid; others have taken the name as orig. applied (in sense 1) to the fiscus in which the money thus accruing was itself kept: so Du Cange, s.v. Hanaperium.
