1 According to Oldmixon, Governor Kendal passed on the 17th of March 1690, an Act to release the prisoners implicated in the Monmouth insurrection, while it is generally considered that he arrived only in Commodore Wright's fleet in June 1690. There is an incongruity in the dates, which would almost lead to suppose that his arrival had taken place the year previous. A Bill which was passed in 1689 by the Assembly, "for the further accommodation of his Excellency in his intended voyage," while Mr. Stede, being LieutenantGovernor, did not receive such a title, gives additional probability to this supposition.
