I. Primary Sources.
The Pennsylvania Archives .- Of direct value for our subject among these are chiefly the early volumes of the First Series, Volumes I-III. The designations in the text, Archives I, Archives II, etc., always refer to the corresponding volume of the First Series. These were selected and arranged from original docu- ments in the Office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth by Samuel Hazard in 1851 and 1852. Some of the others that come into consideration for our subject are Volume VII of the Second Series, containing " Papers relating to Provincial Affairs in Penn- sylvania, 1682-1750," edited by John B. Linn and W. H. Egle, 1878; and Volumes I and II of the Fourth Series, containing the Papers of the Governors, edited by George E. Reed, 1900.
The Colonial Records; or Minutes of the Provincial Council of Pennsylvania from the Organization to the Termination of the Proprietary Government .- Materials bearing directly on our sub- ject are found principally in Volumes II-V containing the acts of the Council from 1700 to 1754. These records were published by the State in 1851 and 1852. The designation in the text "Col. Rec." always refers to the Colonial Records of Pennsylvania.
The Proceedings of the Provincial Council of Maryland, pub- lished as the Maryland Archives under the auspices of the Mary- land Historical Society .- Of chief interest for our subject are the proceedings for the years 1735-1737.
