Book excerpt: Excerpt from Archives of Maryland: Proceedings of the Council of Maryland, 1681-1685/6 This volume completes the publication Of the two long-lost Council Books, the recovery of which was explained in the preface to the volume containing the Council Proceedings, 1671-1681. They nearly fill up the great lacuna in our archives. As previously explained, the necessity of dividing this new material into two volumes causes the present to be somewhat smaller in bulk than other volumes Of the Series; and advantage has been taken of this fact to insert in an appendix some original documents belonging to the period covered. Among these will be found some characteristically unctuous letters from William Penn, and a report, from the Virginia records, of George Talbott's trial, with his pardon.
