Anne (Queen of Great Britain and Ireland, 1665-1714) "Private and Additional Instructions" sent by Queen Anne to the Duke of Marlborough and Lord Townshend "our Ambassadors... for adjusting & concluding a Treaty between Us & the States General; for securing the succession to the Crown of Great Brittain in the Protestant line, & settling a sufficient Barrier for Holland...", contemporary manuscript official copy, 1½pp. with conjugate blank, folds, browned, folio, St James's [Palace], 2nd May 1709.
⁂ Instructions from Queen Anne to the effect that if the revenues of the towns yielded up by the treaty are insufficient, they may be supplemented from the general revenues of the Spanish Low Countries. Negotiations were broken off the following month, but a barrier treaty became part of the general Treaty of Utrecht in 1713.
