1 " Much sympathy was felt throughout England for the Protestants in 

 the Principality of Orange, which had been invaded in 1697 by Louis XIV. 

 ... In 1703 ... a Brief ' for the persecuted Protestants of Orange' 

 . . . Besides this ... a Brief was granted by Queen Anne in 1707 

 for building a Church in Oberbarmen in the Duchy of Berg." Trans. East 

 Riding Ant. Soc, vii., 93. 



In a volume of sermons by Gilbert Burnet, Bishop of Salisbury, in the 

 Society's Library at Devizes, is one entitled " A Sermon preach' d at St. 

 James's Church upon the reading the Brief for the Persecuted Exiles of the 

 Principality of Orange.'" London. 1704. 



2 This was the great storm of November 27th, 1703, when 11 men-of-war 

 and 200 merchant vessels were wrecked, and the Bishop of Bath and Wells 

 was killed in his Palace at Wells.
