Do come down and pay us a private call some other time.' The 'points' she makes 'are just the kind of thing we want to know'. Salisbury did not 'go round the Hosue with the visitors, for I did not wish to embarrass the guides; but clearly there is a good deal more organisation needed before our machinery works smoothly'. He responds to a number of points, including one 'about people unlocking cupboards and climbing on stairs', and another about putting 'rather larger labels on the pictures'.…

Merriman was educated at Winchester College and Brasenose College, Oxford; and ordained in 1833. He was curate then Vicar of Street, Somerset until he emigrated to South Africa. He rose to become Archdeacon of Grahamstown, then Dean of Cape Town before being elevated the Episcopate. Conflict arose between Merriman, who was at this time the Bishop of Grahamstown and Frederick Williams, Dean of Grahamstown regarding the status of the Church of the Province of Southern Africa versus the Church of England and the validity of the appointments of bishops.

First edition of this proclamation intended to clarify and restrict royal patronage amid a growing crisis in Stuart finances. This pamphlet is scarce in commerce: we trace no appearances at auction since 1982. Falling revenues from three of the key traditional sources of royal finance - customs, land rents, and parliamentary subsidy - combined with high inflation and a notoriously profligate king, made 1610 a crisis point in the finances of James I's government. His ministers - chiefly Robert Cecil - determined that the Crown would have to request further support from that year's Parliament, which was already concerned that the monarch was behaving in an excessively autocratic manner. To that end, Cecil masterminded the publication of this proclamation, largely drawn up by him and widely known as the Book of Bounty. Given the tendency of Stuart monarchs to grant various royal revenues streams to private subjects, the Book clarifies what were, and what were not, acceptable sources for such grants, with the ultimate objective of ensuring that more royal revenue went to the Crown itself.
