Calendar Of The Manuscripts Of The Most Hon. The Marquess Of Salisbury, Preserved At Hatfield House, Hertfordshire ; Part XVll is a 1938 book published by His Majesty’s Stationery Office. With the exception of the discovery of the Gunpowder Plot towards the end of the year 1605 and the events arising out of it little of striking domestic interest is dealt with in the papers calendared in the present volume which describes the manuscripts at Hatfield for the whole of that year. Parliament was prorogued on February 7 (p. 52) and did not meet again until November 5 when the Plot would appear to have driven all other matters out of the minds of its members. For the time being, therefore, we hear little or nothing further here of the differences which were noted in the preceding volume as beginning to arise between the King and the Commons.first Edition.
