“The central theme of the second volume is the litigation between the Irish Society and three successive bishops of Derry, Robert Mossom, Ezekiel Hopkins, and William King, concerning fishing rights in the Foyle and Bann, and also lands within the liberties of Derry, north-west of the Foyle, known as the quarterlands of Termonderry….Besides the value of these documents for social and economic, and for local history, they are of special importance for the wealth of information they contain on seventeenth-century fishery practice.”
