BUL : A Second "Pacquet of Intelligence"

From the posts beginning July 3, 2016 [ CJ (#57)] through the 2 January, 2018 the first packet of "intelligence" collected and organized by Thomas Bulkley (BUL-l) is given.  The following shows the title page to the second grouping of information from Bulkley's side of the fence.

This packet ends the 20th of May 1693.  It was to be another 3 years before this was published in London 1696 as a completed record of the case being presented.  This second part is identified as containing three letters :

1) an abstract of a letter from Philip Ludwell (LU-1) the "Governour of Carolina" to our Cadwallader (JO-1) responding to two letters sent by Cadwallader (JO-1).

2) a letter from Philip Ludwell (LU-1) to Thomas Bulkley (BUL-1) responding to letters sent by Gilbert Asbley (AS-1), Bowen Clasen (CLA-1), and Thomas Bulkley (BUL-1).

3) a letter from Thomas Bulkley (BUL-1) to Philip Ludwell (LU-1).

This second packet is lengthy, but is an important set of documents which gives the thoughts of Thomas Bulkley (BUL-1) in his case against Cadwallader Jones (JO-1).  The content of this packet will be given in future posts under the pathway of Bulkley (BUL-1).

Organizing the Pathways

Cloudy and confusing are the pages of history as our story continues along the three pathways to be followed. To try and help the reader [and me] keep things organized, the following structure will be utilized. Each post title will begin with an abbreviation that signifies which pathway is being presented.

1) For Cadwallader's, the "CJ" will continue to be used.  From 1693, he travels to England, then returns to Virginia, and lives the remaining part of his life creating a proposal for Indian trade.

2) For Bulkley's pathway, "BUL" will be use.  He dedicates his life to see that Cadwallader is brought to justice for the perceived evils he received during the time Cadwallader was governor of the Bahamas.  He ultimately travels to England and presents his case.

3) For the official documents recorded, the abbreviation "GOV" will be used.  The communications between the various folks involved move between Bulkley and the many different settings created by these activities.  The government itself is undergoing its own transition between James II (Catholic) and William III (Protestant) and the many differing opinions regarding these forces.

Wow...let's see.  CJ(#...) will be Cadwallader's remaining story. "BUL" will involve Bulkley's pathway and activities.  "GOV" will represent the accounts of the governmental actions taken between the folks involved.
