Excerpt from The Lords Baltimore

He was so highly esteemed for his knowledge and penetration in State affairs, that his abilities recommended him to Sir Robert Cecil, who had been one of the principal Secretaries of State at the death of Queen Elizabeth, and who, by artful management as well as for his great services in securing James' succession, was continued in that office by King James. Sir Robert appointed young Calvert his chief clerk, and when the former was advanced to the office of Lord High Treasurer, as Earl of Salisbury, he still retained his favorite clerk and made use of his prudence and fidelity in many important affairs, and procured for him afterwards the post of one of the clerks of the Privy Council.
