About this book
What Gunpowder Plot Was is by Samuel Rawson Gardiner. The text says that Father Gerard proffers evidence which appears to bring the accusation which he has brought against Salisbury nearer home. The text says that certain notes by an anonymous correspondent of Anthony Wood are preserved in Fulman’s collection in the library of Corpus Christi College, Oxford.
The text puts the case of a Government which conducted its investigations in secret, and which when it saw fit to publish documents occasionally mutilated them to serve its own ends. Sir Thomas Parry, described as James’s ambassador in Paris, is said to have given an account of the matter to Cecil on August 20, writing that the Pope’s Nuncio sent him a message that he had received authority and a mandate from Rome to call out of the King our master’s dominions the factious and turbulent priests and Jesuits.
