Excerpt from A Selection From the Wills of Eminent Persons: Proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury, 1495 1695From what has been stated it is Obvious that English Historical Literature, and our national reputation in respect of our treatment of literary inquirers, are most deeply indebted to sir john R0 milly and sir cresswell cresswell. To them it is owing that we are now enabled to say that, down to a comparatively recent period Of inquiry, our country gives totally unrestricted facilities for historical research among the national archives. Literature and literary men will not be ungrateful for such benefits. The honourable fact will be duly recorded, and the results, which are even now becoming apparent, will ultimately be, that our historical literature will take for its basis a far wider research, and a far greater certainty in the establishment Of facts, than have ever hitherto been deemed necessary.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
