[EAN: 9781333297749], New book, [PU: Forgotten Books, United States], Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from Appeals From Colonial Courts to the King in Council: With Especial Reference to Rhode Island Authoritative as was this order, the colony of Connecticut, imagining that the King was taking away its charter rights, still refused to admit appeals, and the governor even went so far as to declare that before an appeal should be allowed they would dispute the point with His Majesty. 1 A second com plaint being made and further orders issued by the King in council, an appeal was finally granted in June, 1701. We are assured by one authority,2 however, that even as late as 1755 no appeals were allowed to the King in council from Connec tient; that some had been carried to England by way of com plaint, but that in all of these there had been no relief except in the case of John Winthrop.
