Note 1080 — Chapter VII · (continued 2)

The articles of the treaty of Utrecht touching the American possessions of England are cited and commented upon in William Bollan’s Importance and Advantage of Cape Breton, etc. (London, 1746.) The diplomacy of the treaty of Utrecht can be followed in the Miscellaneous State Papers, 1501-1726, in two volumes, usually cited by the name of the editor, as the Hardwicke Papers. Cf. also Actes, mémoires et autres pièces authentiques concernant la paix d’Utrecht, depuis l’année 1706 jusqu’à présent. Utrecht, 1712-15, 6 vols. J. W. Gerard’s Peace of Utrecht, a historical review of the great treaty of 1713-14, and of the principal events of the war of the Spanish succession (New York, etc., 1885) has very little (p. 286) about the American aspects of the treaty.
