page 89 note 1 A suggestion that Fleury was prepared to support the Duke of Bourbon's claims to Neufchatel in preference to those of Frederick William, who as a Protestant was distasteful to the Bishop of Fréjus, and that for this reason the French government did not view the Treaty of Charlottenburg with favour (Brit.

page 196 note 1 See P.R.O., Confidential IA, Morville to Broglie, Fontainebleau, 5 Sept. 1726 N.S. Les mots dont jʼetois convenu aveo Mr. Walpole paroissant suffisans, pour ce que le Roy de la Grande Bretagne se propose en egard a son parlement, et d'un autre coté ee prince ne desirant pas sans doute et ne pouvant pas compter que le Roy puisse envoyer dans le Nord ou dans la Basse-Allemagne un corps de 30m hommes, il semble assés inutile de rien changer quant a present a ce qui a été concerté parce que, encore une fois, cela nʼen vaut pas la peine, et que d'ailleurs Sa Majesté ne veut point prendre d'engagement quʼElle ne puisse remplir dans touts les cas.
page 201 note 1 The “long letter from Mr. Manteuffel to Mr. Le Cocq” is a Pro resolutione pour le Sieur Le Cocq, dated Warsaw, 7 Sept. 1726, covering eleven folios in reply to certain queries sent by Le Cocq, together with a covering letter from Manteuffel. The “relation” of Count Hoym to the King of Poland is an interesting comment, dated Bourbon l'Archanibaut, 12 Sept. 1726 N.S., from the point of view of a Polish statesman on British policy in the Baltie and the West Indies (P.R.O., Confidential, 1A).
