Book excerpt: Excerpt from Calendar of State Papers, Colonial Series, America and West Indies, Jan; 1716 July, 1717: Preserved in the Public Record Office The famous Whig writer had already served for over a year as a Commissioner for Trade and Plantations, long enough, that is, to make him well acquainted with the problems of the Colonies, and also with the working of the office of the Council of Trade It will be seen that, as the result of that experience, he lent a ready ear, as Secretary of State, to suggestions from that Board. One of his first steps was to direct the Board to remind Governors once more of their Instructions to transmit regular accounts of the Revenue in the Plantations (646, Addison had been Chief Secretary of Ireland in 1708, and Secretary to the Lords Justices on the accession of George I. There is a traditional story that when he was promoted to the latter office, this accomplished and versatile essayist and pamphleteer found himself quite incapable of composing a letter to the King without the assistance of a clerk. The routine of each office has, of course, as Macaulay observed some little mysteries which the dullest man may learn with a little attention, and which the greatest man cannot possibly know by On such points Addison might well require some prompting. But with his experience of previou's offices, and the knowledge drawn from over a year's work at the Board of Trade, a man of Addison's literary ability cannot now at any rate have needed any clerk at his elbow to help him in drawing up a State Paper. Certainly the documents here printed, many of them written in his own hand, exhibit just that lucidity and simplicity and that easy adoption of appropriate official directness, without any attempt at literary ornament, which one would naturally expect from such a master of style. The wit and humour of the Spectator would be as out of place in the dispatches of a Secretary of State as the eloquence of Cato. Instead we find simple and straightforward statements of policy and facts with no trace of fastidious ness. Life and Writings of Addison. Of. Spence, Anecdotes, p. 175.
