Excerpt from The Penal Times, (1660-1760): From the State Papers in H. M. Record OfficesThe following papers are derived mainly from two sources, the Carte manuscripts in the Bodleian, Oxford, and the State Paper department of the Irish Record Office. The former furnished most of those for the seventeenth century, the latter for the eighteenth. As there is no printed calendar of the Carte collection only a limited use could be made of that great repertory. Two volumes of the proceedings of the Irish Privy Council have however supplied much information. The papers in the Record Ofiice will be found under the headings Civil Correspondence, Present ments and Petitions to Lords Lieutenant and Lords Justices, Miscellaneous Papers, Church Miscellaneous, Departmental Correspondence, Parliamentary Returns, Southwell Papers, Crown and Peace Records. A few documents have been obtained from Marsh's Library and some from the Essex Papers in the British Museum. It has been thought well to reprint a few others that have appeared in the Historical Manuscripts Reports and elsewhere. With the exception of these latter, the contents of this volume will be altogether new to students (f).About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
