All forms of justice pass only in his Majesty's name; they admit all that desire to be of their corporation; they will not hinder any from enjoying the sacraments and using the Common Prayer Book, provided that they hinder not the maintenance of the public minister.

They will amend anything that hath been done derogatory to his Majesty's honour, if there be any such thing, so soon as they shall come to the knowledge of it." "_The Colony of Rhode Island and Providence_ Plantations returned their humble thanks to his Majesty for sending Commissioners, and made great demonstration of their loyalty and obedience.

They approved as most reasonable, that appeals should be made to his Majesty's Commissioners, who, having heard and determined some cases among them, referred other some in civility to their General Court, and some to the Governor and others; some of which cases they again remitted to the Commissioners to determine.

All proceedings are in his Majesty's name; they admit all to be freemen who desire it; they allow liberty of conscience and worship to all who live civilly; and if any can inform of anything in their laws or practices derogatory to his Majesty's honour, they will amend it." "_The Colony of New Plymouth_ did submit to have appeals made to the Commissioners, who have heard but one plaint made to them, which was that the Governor would not let a man enjoy a farm four miles square, which he had bought of an Indian.

The complainant soon submitted to the Governor when he understood the unreasonableness of it." "_The Colony of Massachusetts Bay_ was the hardest to be persuaded to use his Majesty's name in the forms of justice.
