Excerpt from The Bardon Papers, Vol. 17: Documents Relating to the Imprisonment Trial of Mary Queen of Scots It is highly probable that the majority of the papers here printed were collected by Hatton in order to prepare a Speech which he made in the parliament Specially summoned to take measures con cerning Mary in 1586. In that speech he summarized the whole case for the government against her, setting forth not only the particular Charges upon which she was tried, but also the numerous other offences against Elizabeth and against England which had at various times been urged against her.1 It cannot be said that he presented a strictly historical view of the case. He was evidently restricted many ways by political considerations of one sort or another, and biased by a strong Spirit of partisanship. Neverthe less, the materials which he gathered together and the notes which he drafted upon the basis of them furnish useful information for an understanding of the attitude of the English government towards her and throw considerable light upon the ultimate reasons for her unhappy fate. From this point of view it will be appropriate to consider them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
