Ireland and England Union Seen as Security for Trade
The writer discusses Ireland after 1656, noting English property weakness there and fears of despotism under Irish rule. Poynings Law, English oversight, and potential union with Ireland are weighed as means to protect England’s trade and security amid French and Savoy crises. News from Savoy ends the note.
