Upon the refusal of her demand, the lady protested in form against all the proceedings of the House. The Assembly afterwards defended her from the censures passed by Lord Baltimore upon her management of his affairs in the Province.

[876] A copy of the original, which is very rare, is in the British Museum. It was reprinted by Munsell, of Albany, as No. 1 of Shea’s Early Southern Tracts. [It is suggested in the preface of the reprint, which was edited by Colonel Brantz Mayer, that it “was perhaps prepared by Cecilius Calvert, Lord Baltimore, from the letters of his brothers, Leonard and George Calvert, who went out with the expedition.” It was also reprinted in the Historical Magazine, October, 1865—Ed.]
[877] This second tract was reprinted by Sabin, of New York, in 1865 [under the editing of Francis L. Hawks. A perfect copy should have a map, engraved by T. Cecill, “Noua Terræ-Mariæ tabula.” It is often wanting, as in the Harvard College copy; it is, however, in the Library of Congress copy. Sabin reproduced it full size, and a reduced fac-simile of it is given in Scharf’s History of Maryland, i. 259. Another is given in the text. The Chalmers Catalogue says that at the time of the boundary disputes between Maryland and Pennsylvania the only copy to be found was in the Sir Hans Sloane Collection. See the Sparks Catalogue, and the Huth Catalogue, iii. 926.—Ed.]
[878] [Dr. Dalrymple was born in Baltimore, in 1817, and was for twenty-four years the Corresponding Secretary of the Maryland Historical Society. He is said to have possessed the largest private library (over 14,000 volumes) south of Pennsylvania. He died Oct. 30, 1881.—Necrology (1881) of the Numismatic and Antiquarian Society of Philadelphia.—Ed.]
[879] [In 1844 Georgetown College presented to the Maryland Historical Society a copy of McSherry’s transcript of the Relatio Itineris; and in 1847 Dr. N. C. Brooks made a translation from this copy, which was later printed in Force’s Tracts, iv. No. 12. The Latin text, with a revision of Brooks’s version, was printed privately in the Woodstock Letters, in 1872. Two years later (1874) the Maryland Historical Society reprinted it as stated in the text, following, however, the original McSherry transcript, which had been transferred to Loyola College, Baltimore. This, however, then wanted the concluding pages, but in 1875 the whole was found, which necessitated the printing of a supplement to the Fund Publication of the Society (No. 7) which contained it. The later version of Converse is largely reprinted in Scharf’s Maryland, i. 69, etc.
Various accounts of Father White have been printed: B. U. Campbell’s in the Metropolitan Catholic Almanac, 1841, and in the United States Catholic Magazine, vol. vii. Mr. Campbell also read before the Historical Society a paper on Early Missions in Maryland, and printed a chapter on the same subject in the United States Catholic Magazine in 1846. There is also an account of Father White, by Richard H. Clarke, in the Baltimore Metropolitan, iv. (1856), and a sketch in the Woodstock Letters. Upon all these is based the account in the Fund Publication already mentioned. Other accounts of the Maryland missions may be found in Shea’s Early Catholic Missions; and in Henry Foley’s Records of the English Province of the Society of Jesus, London, 1878, vol. iii. Mr. Neill has used this last in his tract, Light Thrown by the Jesuits upon Hitherto Obscure Points of Early Maryland History, Minneapolis. See also his Eng. Col., ch. xv.—Ed.]
