HON. W. S. JOHNSOX. 207 and Samuel Robinson, Esq. , was appointed their agent to repair to England and lay it before His Majesty. " l " William SamuelJobnson, an eminent lawyer and states- man of Connecticut, was then preparing to leave for Eng- land, as agent for that colony to the home government, and the petitioners employed him to assist Mr. Robinson in his mission. They sailed in the same vessel from New York, the 25th of December, 17G6, and landed at Falmouth, Eng- land, the 30th of Janua...ry following, and reached London a few days afterward. " 2 Mr. Robinson was much hindered in his mission by the aristocratic prejudices at court against the republican set- tlers on the New Hampshire Grants, also by want of money and prestige ; 3 nevertheless he was, though not completely, in a very important degree successful. He seems to have shrewdly discerned the situation, and to have given the settlers at home sound advice as to the wise course for them to pursue under their difficulties. But, most valuable of all, " he so far procured the aid of the crown that Lord Shelburne, on April 11, 17G7, addressed a letter to Sir Henry Moore, who had then become gov-, ernor of the province of New York, forbidding him in the most positive terms from making any more grants of land in the disputed territory, and from molesting any person in possession under a New Hampshire title.
