Note 523 — Chapter IX
Reading edition
The records of the Council for New England frequently refer to the subject of the renewal of their patent. Under the date of Aug. 6, 1622, we read: “Forasmuch as it has been ordered by the Lords of his Majesty’s Privy Council that the Patent for New England shall be renewed, as well for the amendment of some things therein contained as for the necessary supply of what is found defective,” etc. Then follow some minutes of additional changes desired by the patentees themselves.
