Papers of the Council of State.
78255-78262. EVELYN PAPERS. These papers, consisting partly of confiscated royalist papers and partly of records of Council of State business, apparently came into custody of Sir Richard Browne at the Restoration in his capacity as Clerk of the Privy Council. They must represent the papers Pepys referred to in 1681, when he asked Evelyn about ‘Sir Richard Browne’s share of the letters of State found among the Council-papers at the King’s coming-in’; Evelyn replied that he had ‘yet by me many thousands’ (Particular Friends, ed. Guy de la Bédoyère, 1995, pp. 126-7). The Restoration Privy Council was concerned to secure the records of its predecessor; in 1660 there was an order that the records of the Council of State should be brought in and kept with the rest of the Council records (CSPD 1660-1661, p. 79). On 25 Nov. 1662 a general warrant was issued for the recovery of all records from Interregnum officials (Add. MS 35117, f. 169v). This group was evidently never delivered to the State Paper Office.
Eight volumes.
