Note in the same book:

p. 41: "ch-----r of the ex-----r", presumably = "chancellor of the
exchequer"

p. 84: "m-----y", ?= "ministry"

p. 171: "p-rl-m-nts"

p. 171: "k---s", probably = "kings"

p. 174: "s-----n", ?= "sovereign"

p. 265: "House of C-----s", ?= "House of Commons"

p. 268: "P-----t"

p. 269: "M-----r", ?= "Minister"

pp. 276-8: multiple instances of "P-----t"

and many other similar items.
