Excerpt from Report to the Right Honourable the Master of the Rolls Upon the Carte and Carew Papers: In the Bodleian and Lambeth Libraries Sir, I beg to acquaint you, for the information of the Lords Commissioners of Her Majesty´s Treasury, that, in consequence of your letter of the 22d July 1863, stating that their Lordships accepted the offer of Mr. Hardy and Mr. Brewer to make such an inquiry and report into the Carew Papers in Lambeth Palace, and the Irish Papers in the Bodleian Library, as that suggested in your letter, and requesting me to take the necessary steps for that purpose, I have acted in accordance with the desire expressed by you, and I have now the pleasure to forward the very able and valuable report of Mr. Hardy and Mr. Brewer; but at the same time I think it desirable to state, for the consideration of their Lordships, my view of the course which it seems to me it would be most expedient to adopt. In the first place, it appears to me that it would be very desirable, not only that the Report, but the Appendices also should be printed, as their bulk renders them inconvenient for consultation in manuscript, and it is probable that they will be much sought for, especially in Ireland, inasmuch as the Appendices show the general nature of Carte´s collection, which may not be fully known even to the Curators of the Bodleian, and still less to the public. They also identify a large mass of very curious letters, printed by Carte, which no one but himself knew where to find. The printing and circulation of the Report will show that Her Majesty´s Government have not been unmindful of the wishes expressed by the Irish nation to have the materials for Irish history collected, and that they have made an attempt to discover and disclose important documents connected with the historical literature of Ireland.
