170 THE DUTCH RECONQUEST. 1669-71 dependency. Keep the people down by such taxes as shall keep them hard at work, and give them no time for political agitation. ' Such instructions given to an arbitrary and unpopular subordinate show that it was good nature and rule-of-thumb shrewdness rather than any real spirit of statesmanship which kept Lovelace within the paths of moderation and common sense. The disturbance was quelled without difficulty. The pseudo-Konigsmark was whipped, branded, and so...ld as a slave to Barbadoes ; his chief accomplice, Henry Coleman, took refuge among the Indians, and at a later day figured as a landholder in Penn's colony.^ Disaffection within was not the only trouble which beset the colony or, as one might rather call it, the Attack outpost ou tlic Delaware. In 1669 an attempt from, Maryland, was uiadc Oil bclialf of Lord Baltimore to assert authority over the settlers there, and three years later they were attacked and pillaged by a party of raiders from Maryland.^ They plundered the unhappy settlers on the Hoarkill, and destroyed their crops, reducing them, if we may believe an almost con- temporary witness, to such straits that, as in Samaria in the days of Joram, women ate their own children.
