EVELYN PAPERS. Vols. XL-XLII. Papers, partly legal, relating to English shipping and mercantile affairs in France; 1640-1654. In return for a royal commission, privateers bringing their prizes into French ports were required to pay dues to Charles II and the Duke of York. Sir Richard Browne was one of those employed to supervise the sales and collect the proceeds; ‘from the close of 1652 to [spring 1656] Browne was actively engaged in Brittany, at Brest and Nantes, endeavouring to collect the sums owed to the King’, though only a fraction of the money was recovered (DNB; and see also Ronald Hutton, Charles II (Oxford, 1989), pp. 76-77). The newsletters of the parliamentary agent, René Augier, to the Committee for Foreign Affairs, 1646-1648, in Add. MS 4200 contain much information about royalist shipping; see also Add. MS 4191.
Three volumes.
