It appears from a passage in the _Life_ (p. 333.), that Skinner
appended, or intended to append, a collection of papers:--
"As appears from His Majesty's royal grant or warrant to
him (Sir John Grenville), which we have transcribed from the
original, and have added in the collection at the end of this
history."
Webster says he never could get any account of this collection of
papers. Can Colchester now produce any information about them?
Can any of your readers give any information about those papers of
the second Duke of Albemarle, and of Grenville, Earl of Bath, to which
Skinner had access? Lord Bath's papers were probably afterwards in the
hands of his nephew Lord Lansdowne, who vindicated Monk in answer to
Burnet.
