Others came to worship without persecution, and naturally adopted the Anglo-Saxon system of government in so far as it was adaptable to the new conditions they were compelled to face. For instance, the Colony of Virginia was sent out by 'Hhe London Company' ', to be governed by a su- 50 POLI TIC ALA M ERICA i- .. perior Council residing in England, and an in- ferior Council ...residing in the Colony; both councils to be chosen by direction of the King.
