The article discusses and presents papers in the manuscript collection of British statesman Sir Robert Walpole held by Cambridge University Library in England relating to the 1710 impeachment trial of English High Church clergyman and politician Henry Sacheverell.

The examination of Sacheverell’s printer Henry Clements at the trial is also considered.
