me that I would release him from his bond of good behaviour
given in Maryland, prtending that itt may be some prjudice as
well as a great trouble & affliction to him to live in my Prov-

what was imposed upon him & not att all to any willfull
designe he had of bringing a mischiefe upon the inhabitants
& Province of Maryland; in which place he earnestly desires

was only occasioned by the great exigency of affaires att that

deserve this kindnesse & favoure shewn him by
