239 As to his American affairs, after the recall of Evans he appointed Charles Gookin his Deputy Governor, to whom he gave letters of introduction to his Friends in Philadelphia, expressive of his excellent character. Gookin, it appears, arrived there in 1709, and while the Assembly were sitting. They presented him almost immediately with an Address, in which " they congratulated his season- able accession to the Government." This Address was however extremely injudicious in the latter part of ...it; for, instead of passing over all subjects connected with former disputes, so that at least their first act might breathe the spirit of peace and good will, they brought to his notice what they called their old grievances with an expectation of redress from him, and this in matters of which it would have been but fair to presume he could have known nothing, and which it was totally out of his power to remedy. This Address produced the effect which it was na- tural to expect from it ; for, first, it offended the Go- vernor at the very outset of his public career.
