Excerpt from Laws of New Hampshire, Vol. 3: Including Public and Private Acts and Resolves, Royal Commissions and Instructions, Notes and Appendix; Province Period, 1745-1774 While the people of the province performed their part loyally and well when the mother country was at war with her ancient rival, they were still jealous of any infringement of their rights, and their representatives in the Assembly resisted all attempts to subordinate the popular will to royal prerogative.
