Papers relating to Public Offices and Affairs
78393-78401. EVELYN PAPERS. Vols CCXXVI-CCXXXIV. Papers of Evelyn relating to public offices and public affairs; 1660-1701. Evelyn was actively involved in the Restoration of Charles II and afterwards sought public office. He hinted at the possibility of being appointed Historiographer Royal and hoped for the reversion of his father-in-law’s post of Clerk of the Council, but did not succeed in either. However Charles II used him as a government writer from time to time, and, among more minor service on public commissions, he was a Commissioner for Sick and Wounded Seamen from 1664 till 1675 and a member of the Council of Trade and Plantations from 1671 to 1674. The following papers derive from these activities.
Nine volumes.
