The law, as has already been stated, required the gov- ernor to reside at Plymouth; but there was a special dis- pensation made in favor of Governor Prence until the year 1665. In October of that year, "the country saw reason to desire and request his removal into the town, for the more convenient administration of justice. " Gov. Prence now removed to Plymouth, and took possession of a place, provided for him by the government, which he occupied until his death. It was nearly two miles from th...e centre of the town, on the road leading towards Boston and was called Plain-Dealing. , the former resi- dence of John Winslow, and afterwards of Edward Gray, of whom it had been purchased by the colony. The governor's salary was at the same time established at fifty pounds per annum, and it was stipulated that he should receive that sum annually as long as he continued to be governor of the colony. THOMAS PREJVCE. 153 Governor Prence was not altogether happy in his administration of the government.
