Excerpt from Calendar of State Papers, Colonial Series, America and West Indies, 1724-1725: Preserved in the Public Record Office After the appointment of Sir Thomas Wilson as Keeper of the State Papers in 1612, it was ordered that the papers of the Secretaries of State should be deposited, when they ceased to be immediately needed, in his custody in the State Paper Office.
