Synopsis

Excerpt from Narratives of Scottish Catholics, Under Mary Stuart and James Vi: Now First Printed From the Original Manuscripts in the Secret Archives of the Vatican and Other Collections

We can, at this date, scarcely hope for the discovery of any hidden store of records to put us in easy posses sion of the severed thread of our Catholic history. It is therefore perhaps best to make use of such documents as are still within reach, and, as far as can be, to bring our gleanings together.

In publishing these Narratives and Letters, my object has been to make the condition of Catholics in Scotland, after the Reformation period, more clearly and widely known.

Without professing to be a consecutive history, they will enable the reader to form his own judgment from the evidence of contemporary witnesses.
