Debate on Bill for Letter Regulation of Adalfachusett's Bay
London Evening Post reports Wednesday's committee debate on the Massachusetts Bay civil government bill. Phipps objects to preamble, fears bill may alter body text. Dyson notes preamble as reasoning. Objections focus on Governor's power to appoint and remove the Sheriff and to serve as Justice of the Peace. Lord North seeks clarity to allow suppression of riots without expanding power.
