Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stolen Waters: A Page in the Conquest of Ulster This is an attempt to throw into narrative form the historical, official, and legal records of a phase of Anglo-Irish history little explored. As to the documents: A "King´s Letter" of Charles I. (24th September, 1638) as condensed in the Calendar of Irish State Papers, contains words not to be found in the original. The text printed in these pages is taken from the "enrolment" in the Dublin Record Office. Another paper which witnesses the culmination of the frauds practised on the Corporation of London in relation to the Plantation of Ulster is so clipped in that Calendar as to yield no idea of the nature of the transaction. The original is hard to decipher in one place and the version which I have extracted from the London Record Office may be astray as to a word. If so, it is a misreading which does not affect the sense. Other instruments here published for the first time are taken either from officially certified copies or were made by me from the originals. In preparing for the Press, my shorthand notes were set into typewriting by my daughter Elizabeth and indeed were often bettered on the way. Mr. Wm. M. Murphy freely printed them by his newspaper staff for my convenience, and as corrections grew, made reprints without stint. Without their help the book could not have been brought out. That scholarly and tireless archivist, the Deputy Assistant Keeper of the Irish Records, Mr. M. J. M´Enery, M.A., grudged me no inroad on his lore.
