Author Description

Excerpt from The Manx Society, Vol. 26: Established in the Year 1858 Fenella, mentioned in the before-named romance. Among the thousands who annually visit Peel Castle and enquire for the sally-port from whence she is said to have made her escape, scarce one enquires for the Tower in which the Earl of Warwick was actually confined in. This sally-port being now popularly known as Fenella's. Much interest is however taken at the present day in the publication of Historical documents contained in the Public Record Office as well as in the private archives of families who have so liberally thrown them open for investigation, thereby clearing up many dis torted or doubtful cases of general history. The publi cation of the various depositions, and the proceedings connected With the case, now for the first time printed, will, there is little doubt, place this episode of one portion of this disturbed period in the I sle of Man in its proper light, as these documents thus brought forward, without comment from the editor, will speak for themselves.
