Page 46, line 12. " Yerule" is a scribe's error for "J. Ernie." The
members of the Council are: Jeffreys, Lord High Chancellor; Sir John
Ernley, Chancellor of the Exchequer; Robert, Earl of Sunderland,
President of the Council; John, Lord Belasyse, First Lord of the
Treasury; Sidney, Lord Godolphin, and Henry, Lord Dover, Lords of
the Treasury; Charles, Earl of Middleton, Secretary of State, and
William, Duke of Hamilton, Councillor.

Page 65, line 31. This and the following letter seem to be to
Effingham.

Page 107, line 7. Original torn.

Page 107, line 30. " W^m" is an error for "N^ha," i. e. Nehemiah.

Page 172, line 19. "Scharnecksteed," i.e. Schenectady.

Page 173, line 5. "St.Tophars" for "St. Christopher's."

Page 196, line 5. "Vivian" for "Ninian."

Page 206, line 30. This letter is apparently addressed to Gov.

Page 236, line 40. There are evidently many errors in the names
on these lists, but it is idle to make conjectural corrections.

illegible. The P. R. O. copy is full of errors.
