Product Description
Excerpt from Calendar of the Proceedings of the Committee for Advance of Money, 1642-1656
The Army Committee was a potent element, because to it was mainly entrusted the regulation of public expenditure but its order books are absent, and its only records consist of large numbers of warrants, scattered among 300 bundles. Of Interregnum Exchequer, Papers, which are now in process of arrangement.
Another committee was that for taking the Accounts of the king dom. It was formed 22 Feb. 1644, and consisted of 25 members.1 Without its examination and approval, no accounts could be; passed. All accounts for arrears of officers and soldiers, expenses of garri sons, &c., as well as of civil expenditure, passed, through the hands of this committee. But here again the sole records remaining in the Record Office are letters and papers scattered among the 300 bundles. Of Exchequer Papers. These two committees belong rather to the department of the Exchequer than to that of general history.
There were also Committees of Safety for Removing Obstructions in the sale of Delinquents' lands; and for relief of those who sur rendered ou Articles of War, of which only casual records remain.
The Committees of which the records are sufficiently complete to render a calendar practicable, are.
