    SCS.5HS.I6I SCOTTISH HISTORY SOCIETY FIFTH SERIES VOLUME 2 Letters of George Lockhart of Carnwath A Letters of George Lockhart of Carnwath 1698-1732 edited by Daniel Szechi, d.phil ★ EDINBURGH printed for the Scottish History Society by PILLANS & WILSON SPECIALIST LITHO PRINTERS LTD. EDINBURGH 1989 © Scottish History Society 1989 ISBN 906245 11 7 Printed in Great Britain PREFACE The collection of letters below is the surviving personal and official correspondence of George Lockhart of Carnwath. Legal statements, estate management papers and all the numerous works intended for publication have been excluded for the sake of brevity, with the partial exception of an open letter which was circulated anonymously in manuscript around Edinburgh in 1713. Many legal and estate papers survive; these are held by the National Library of Scotland in Acc.7124 and 4322 (Lockharts of Lee and Carnwath), and others may be found in the records of the House of Lords. The bulk of material either published or intended for publication, as well as Lockhart’s extensive autobiographical writings, can be found in Anthony Aufrere’s excellent edition of The Lockhart Papers (2 vols, 1817). Thus far I have been unable to discover the eventual fate of the manuscripts from which Aufrere compiled The Lockhart Papers. Nevertheless, my own research has many times confirmed both the authenticity of what is contained therein and Aufrere’s reputation for painstaking scholarship. It should be emphasised that the collected letters that follow constitute the complete corpus of Lockhart’s correspondence known to me at the present time. It is perfectly possible that other letters may survive in archives not accessible at the time my research was being conducted, most notably the archive of the Dukes of Argyll at Inveraray.
