Note 167 — Chapter II
Reading edition
The charter was at once printed in Boston by Benj. Harris, 1692. It was reprinted by Neal in his New England, 2d ed. ii. App., and is included in various editions of the Charter and Laws, published since. The original parchment is at the State House, and a heliotype of its appearance, as it hangs in a glass case on the walls of the Secretary’s office, is given in the Memorial Hist. of Boston, vol. ii. The explanatory charter of a later year is similarly cared for. The boxes in which they originally came over are also preserved.
