Excerpt from Calendar of the Manuscripts of the Most Hon. The Marquis of Salisbury, &C., Preserved at Hatfield House, Hertfordshire, Vol. 14: Addenda The present volume of the Calendar of Cecil Papers is the last for the reign Of Elizabeth. It covers the years 1596 to 1603, and contains also a very large number Of papers that could not be dated beyond the apparent fact that they belonged to the reign of Elizabeth. In the process Of calendaring the previous volumes a great number of papers had to be carried forward which could not be assigned to any particular date, in the hope that later documents might in many cases supply sufficient evidence to give them an approximate date, by internal evidence or reference to contemporary events later brought to light. In very many cases, however, this hope has not been realised, and the end Of the reign Of Elizabeth seemed an appropriate period at which to collect and publish all such undated papers. With the next reign a new and entirely different era begins and the change in the social and political atmosphere is so great as to leave no doubt in deciding that many papers must belong to the reign Of the last Of the Tudors, and not the first Of the Stuarts. In some cases it will be noted that many letters and documents in this volume have become detached from correspondence in previous volumes on the same subjects, which have afforded a clue to some of the undated papers and added considerably to our information on those subjects. Towards the end Of the volume will be found many newsletters from Scotland, and various European countries; these latter are interesting, but the news they contain must be checked by reference to Official papers from other Sources before being accepted as correct.
