Registers of 'Country Correspondence Letters Received & Sent' ,

A register which appears to relate to a series of 'Country correspondence' some of which are in CR9. The register appears to relate to a series of 'Country Correspondence' letter books which, had they survived, would have immediately preceded the series described in CC2 and CC. It contains abstracts, copies and translations of the 538 letters exchanged between Clive and the Indian rulers from his arrival in Bengal in 1756 until his appointment as governor in 1758. The period of the register saw the recapture of Calcutta (Jan 1757), the capture of Chandernagore from the French (March 1757), the true and fictitious treaty with Mir Jafar (May 1757) and the battle of Plassey (June 1757).
