He offered the first place in the Council to Lloyd, who declined it. Then he conferred it upon Markham, whom, on April 27, with the unanimous consent of the other councillors, he appointed Lieutenant-Governor. On a question of the validity of the former laws, Fletcher confirmed most of them, with some amendments to make them conform more to the laws of England, until the royal pleasure should be known. When the Assembly would not set back the wheels of progress by making burglary punishable wit...h death, he yielded. He was willing to fix a salary of six shillings a day for each member and nine shillings for the 326 Suspension and Restoration of Government Speaker; but the councillors, unable to obtain a salary for them- selves or the Lieutenant-Governor, unanimously rejected the bill. The Assembly granted in 1693 a tax of id. Per pound for the sup- port of the government, and the next year would have done the same in reply to his promise that, in consideration of their scruples, the money "should not be dipped in blood, " but should "feed the hungry and clothe the naked" Indians, unable to hunt because fighting for the English, but Fletcher would not ccjnsent to the formal appropriation of part of the prcKeeds to Lloyd and ]^Iark- ham.
