Irish A number of important documents relating to the Catholic Association are preserved in the Record Tower at Dublin Castle. They are calendared in the Official Index under headings (State of the Country, R. C. Claims, R. C. Association, R. C. Clergy), or in the Supplementary Index under the years to which they belong. Amongst these papers are verbatim reports of meetings, letters from informers and official reporters, reports of military officers, police inspectors, etc. They throw considerable light upon the Irish movement during the years 1805-29. Papers of an earlier date are kept at the Public Record Office, in the Four Courts, and have been more generally utilised by Irish historians, especially by the late W. E. H. Lecky. Reference has also been made to a manuscript diary of the years 1828-30 which is now in the possession of Professor Wardell of Trinity College, Dublin. The author (G. H. Ross-Lewin), who was at Ross Hill and Kilkec, co. Clare, during Sept. and Oct. 1828, supplies some interesting details as to the state of the country. B. English The Mss. of the British Museum contain many papers relating to the Catholics of England. Of those touching the Emancipation movement the following may be mentioned: Stowe Mss. No. 121 and Add. Mss. 28, 252 (negotiations of 1719 between Craggs and the Catholics); Add. Mss. 6402, fol. 119 (order to enforce the laws against R. C.'s in 1743); ib. 33,053, fol. 298 (case of the R. C. merchants in London, 1760); ib. 5811, fol. 127 (the clamour against the R. C.'s in 1767); *. 5826 and 6400 (correspondence of Alban Butler with W. Cole, 1766-7); ib. 28,252 (miscellaneous tracts and papers); ib. 5798 A. B. foil. 369,420 (proceedings of 1780 in House of Lords); ib. 7961-2 (the Three Blue Books of the R. C. Committee and their original minute-book 1782-92); *. 14,422 (Letter of Charles Butler to the Vicars Apostolic; with the replies of the Universities of the Sorbonne, Lou vain, etc. to certain questions); ib. 25,127-9 (letter-books of C. Butler 1808-18). The Hardwicke Papers (in the Add. Mss.) contain a number of papers relating to the Irish Catholics in the years 1801-6; also some letters of Sir Robert Peel to Lord Hardwicke between 1814 and 1829. II. NEWSPAPERS The best collection of Irish newspapers is that at the Chief Secretary's Office, Dublin Castle. The Dublin Evening Post, the Dublin Chronicle and the Freeman's Journal are the most useful for the history of the Catholic agitation between 1823 and 1829. |
