SIR EDMUND ANDROS. 419 the insurrection, was publicly read; the old magistrates were reinstated as a Council of Safety ; and the venera- ble Governor Bradstreet was made their president. On the 29th May, William and Mary were proclaimed King and Queen at Boston. * Andros and his accomplices, in the meantime, re- mained in confinement, until the pleasure of the king and queen could be made known. Andros on one occasion managed to elude the vigilance of his keepers, and escap- ed, but was soon af...ter taken in Rhode Island, and again conducted to prison. F On the 30th of July, William III. Issued an order for the immediate conveyance of Andros, Randolph and others to England, " to answer what may be objected against them. " The order was not received until near the close of the year, and in Feb- ruary, 1690, they were sent home to England. In considering their case, the king was placed in an awkward dilemma. If he condemned the conduct of Andros, and sanctioned the proceedings of the colonists, it might be used as an argument and precedent in favor of future insurrections.
