153 killed a part of the inhabitants, and carried rnanj others into captivity. The treaty of Rys- wick, proclaimed at Boston toward the close of the year, produced a temporary cessation of hostilities, while it restored to each party the conquests that had been respectively made. Bellamont, who had also been commissioned to govern New York and New Hampshire, did not assume personally the administration in Mas- sachusetts until 1(J1>U. Ilis course was at once popular and conciliatory. Lie sought... and main- tained the friendship of the clergy by deferring to their religious opinions, and by observing great punctuality and decorum in his attendance at church and lectures. His aflability was not without its reward. The liberality of the general court, with respect to his salary, was far greater than ever had been accorded to any preceding governor. Upon the death of Bellamont at New York in 1701, the ambitious and unpopular Joseph Dudley was appointed governor of the province. His personal application for the office having proved successful, he reached Boston in June, 1702, and soon found himself engaged in a quarrel with that sturdy party of popular men, some of whom had risen against the tyranny of Andros, and still defended, to the utmost of their ability, the rights and privileges of the people.
