To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" In 1749, the claim upon the assembly to pass a permanent Supply bill, was renewed in the most imperi- ous and offensive manner. The governor told the assem- bly he had the king's instructions for a law rendering the provision for the support of government permanent ; and the house calmly replied, that they would never recede from the method of an annual support. The governor then went so far as to deny their authority to act, except by the royal commissions and instructions, alterable at the ...king's plea- sure, and subject to his limitations ; and that there was a power able to punish them, and would punish them, if they provoked it by their misbehaviour. He proceeded to such extremities that the assembly, without swerving in the least from their determined purpose, declared his conduct to be arbitral}', illegal, and a violation of their privileges. * It would be diflicult to find in any of the legislative re- a Colony Journals, vol. I. 253.
b Smith's Hist, of JSfew- York, vol. Ii. LOtJ — 1 10.
