« ON Colony) but to grant them the said lands ta
“ ereft and fettle thereon a New Colony, in such
" form and under fiich regulations, as might be
(< confident with his Royal Wisdom."
That fail) rin this application, (as it might be
juftlyeo ed his Majesty would not grant those
lands a rd time, which were before granted to
Will on) they recurred to their pretended In
dian nmchafe, and set up their Charter Claim, but
never durst fettle any of the lands in their own
right, till they were foft purchased by the Proprie
taries of Pennsylvania in November, 1768, at whiclr ]
time the Indians in Public Council solemnly denied ]
ever having made any sale of the lands in queftionl
to the people of Connecticut; as the Six Nations}
had before disclaimed the fame by the Sachem Hem-|
thick, and other Chiefs, sent to Philadelphia forl
that purpose in January, 1755. j
That the Connecticut Claimants were not only ;
thus prevented by the Indians from fettling under
their own pretended purchase, and obliged to waiti
till they could come in under the purchase of Penn-}
lylvania ; but even now dare not fettle one foot of:
their said purchase, which reaches over or beyond !
the Pennsylvania purchase ; and thatupon the whole,l
they had intruded themselves into this province ;
without any shadow of right, and hold the prevent
poflfeffions by forcible entry and inv/hons of thei
property of persons holding under this Province. In ;
proof of which, your Memoriabfts produced num-1
hers of affidavits and other vouchers, fettin^ fcith ,
their firft intrusion, and attempt to dispossess Mul
Ogden, and other settlers at Wyoming, in Febrile «
ary, 1769 ; their being twice taken by the Sheriff ;
of Northampton, and defeated in their defies; :
their escapes from prison and bail ; breach of their
faith ; returning again to the lands, and taking to $
their assistance fugitives from the justice of this pro-1
vince, till at length they succeeded in their prefent1
lodgement at the said Wyoming, a place within thei
undoubted charter limits of this Province, and to|
which its laws and jurifdi&ion were a&nally extend- !
ed by our Legislature, long before any a& of the
Colony of Connecticut for that purpose. '|
That the peace of the province has for several
y^ars past been constantly interrupted by these in-1
truders, endeavouring to extend their settlements,
2nd to draw off our inhabitants to their part by eve
ry undue means in their power ; tempting some of
the lowest of them with offers of commifiohs, civil
and military; and others, particularly those who
bold as tenants, to become landlords themidves,
by offers of the lands on easier terms than those of
Pennsylvania..
That their late attempt to extend themselves west
ward at lead 50 miles from Wyoming to the weft
branch of Sufquehannah, was attended with the mod
provoking circuinftances of treachery, as well as want
of sympathy for the distresses of their country, or
regard for public union.---Becanfe in May lad, after
actual hostilities bad commenced between Great-Bri
tain and the Colonies, the Assembly of Connecticut
made a %*u, law, extending their jurifdiaion to the
said weft branch of Syfquehannah, and thereby exci
ting their people to make farther intrusions upon its,
which was most ungenerously attempted by them in
an hostile manner the latter end of September last,
in open disregard of the injunctions of the Continen
tal Congress, at a time when they thought our people
were lead expe&ing them, and lead prepared to receive
them ; many of the best men of the county being
abfentin the public service as Riflemen.
Thatupon this date of the matter, andin the present
temper of the frontier inhabitants of this province,
whote minds are fojuftly inflamed against thofeintru
ders, as a set of men who have made repeatecbattacks
on their property, and to whose future engagements
toofaith can be due, your Memorialifis took the li
berty to suggest to the worthy Committee of Congress
their apprehensions that thp said frontier inhabitants,
now considering themselves under the necefhty of
repelling force by force, can be no way quieted, or
the public peace preserved, "but by those Connec
“ ticut people yielding up the lands of which they
" have taken forcible possession, and retiring within
" their eld bounds ef,i of New-York, there patiently
“ to wait the decifien of the controversy by that
" authority to which both sides have submitted, and
“ which may soon be expected.”
The reply made to these arguments appeared to us
too evasive and inconclusive to trouble your Honour
able House with a recital of them. Upon thewhole,
instead of acquiefeing in our propofol to withdraw
these Intruders, the Connecticut Delegates gave
in the following written proposal, calculated under
the fanflion of the Congress if it could be had, to
obtain for their people a still Wronger establishment
in a tract of land almost as large as all Connecticut ;
thereby delivering them the quiet possession and use of
lands, honestly purchased, and paid for to an im
mense value, by multitudes of good people belonging
to all parts of our province.
« WHEREAS it is represented to this Con
gtefs that some disturbances have lately happened
among the people inhabiting the lands in controversy
between the Colony of Conn.-aicut and the Proprie^
tors of the Colony of Pennsylvania, which, unless,
fpeedhy quieted, may interrupt the harmony and
weaken the union of the confederated Colonies,
when their united efforts are heceffary for the defence
of their common rights and liberties ; and that the
peace of said inhabitants cannot be preserved nor of
fenders duly punched there by the civil authority of
the Colonies of Connecticut and Pennsylvania, or
either of them, by reason of their interfering claims
of forfdiaion, and the Afferdbly of the Colony of
Pennsylvania and the Delegates of the Colony of
,Connecticut have requested the interposition and ad
vice of the Congress in the premises.
" Resolved, that in the opinion of the Congress,
it is expedient for preserving the peace of said Colo
nies, that a temporary line of jurifdiaion be fixed be
tween them, and therefore recommend for the present,
and until there fliall be a legal settlement of said con
troversy er some other regulation eftabliffied, that the
Colony of conne&icut confine the exercise of its
jurifdiaion (at the place in controversy) to that part
of a township incorporated by the Assembly of that
Colony by the name of Weftmoreland, that lieth cast
of a meredian line begining at latitude 41° north at
the distance of 15 English miles weft of the east
branch cf Sufquehannah river, and from thence
running north to the north line of the lands in con-°
troverfy. And that the Colony of Pennsylvania
forbear to exercise jurifdiaion within those limits,
unless the south limit of said town include any of the
inhabitants who fettled and hold under the claim of
the Proprietors of Pennsylvania, that then those in
habitants remain under the jurifdiaion of Pennsylva
nia, and that all the inhabitants on said controverted
lands be fuffered peaceably to occupy the lands now
in their a&ual possession.
“ Provided nevertheless, that nothing contained
in this temporary provilibn ffiall any way affeft or
FORM of a RESOLUTION of Congress
proposed by the Connecticut Delegates.
prejudice the legal claim or title of either pnrty to fr^
of the said land's. And it is further recommended,
that all perfohs who have been arrested only for at
tempting to enter upon and take possession of any of
the vacant or uncultivated lands in controversy, be
forthwith released, and that all their efFeßs be restored
to them. And that for thefuture all concerned care
fully avoid whatever may tend to disturb the peace,
or interrupt the harmony and friendfhip that ought at
all times, and more especially the present, to subsist
among all true lovers of their country."
On the foregoing popofal it was observed firft by
your Memorialitts, that the bounds pointed out
would extend the jurifdi&ion of Connecticut not only
over the Wyoming lands and 15 miles weft of Sul
qoehannah, but also eafward 10 Delaware over the
Minifir,lc and other lands fettled and governed under
Pennsylvania for 50 years past. They further ob
served an affected obfeurity and the use of ambiguous
words in the proposal, where it ought to have been
explicit and clear—As for example--^ temporary
line of jurifdiaion is proposed " until there shall be
a legal settlement of the controverfy"—But when
they were aiked what they merit by a legal settlement,
and whether the exited determination by the King
in Council would be acquiefeed in by them as such,
no decitive reply was obtained, but rather a suggestion
that they would not confider such determination as
final in their case. The like ambiguity was observed
with refpea to the words—" actual poffeffion"--'-
they affiaing to confider all la^ds on which no persons
live as vacant and free for their people to fit down up
on ; and we confideririg all lands for which we have
paid and which have been surveyed off to ns as our
aNual pofriffion, which no man has a right to enter
upon without our leave, whether we occupy them or
not. And as to a temporary line of jurifhaion your
Memorialists declared it to be a matter which they
could neither confent^o nor have any concern in ad
vising, for the following reasons:
First. Because the Legislature of this Province did
extend its jurifdi&ion over the whole lands in contro
versy long before the Colony of Connecticut made
any acf for the lilce purpose, and therefore that ju-;
rifiliaion can neither be fufoended or limited but by ;
the legislature of this province itfelf, or by the ge
neral content of those interested.
Secondly, Because such general content can never
be expected. For wherever such temporary line may:
be fixed, 'it must give diffatisfaaion to multitudes, I
and facrifice (at lead, for a time) the property of 'one ;
part of the country for the peace or convenience of;
the other.
Thirdly, Because application being heretofore madel
on the part of Connecticut, to the Honourable Pro
prietaries of Pennsylvania for such temporary line,
they refufed to consent to the some, considering that
it would be injurious to their cause, and an adurfTton
that the lines of Connecticut, fettled more than an
hundred vears ago east of New-York, could new
extend weft of the fame, and approach those of
Pennsylvania.
Fourthly, Because it seems evidently intended by
the prSpofing such temporary lines to give those
Connecticut intruders an opportunity of introdu
cing still greater numbers of their people, and ren
dering themselves lo strong as to be able to dispute the
possession, whatever may be determined refpeaing
the merits of the controversy.—And that on the
I whole, a temporary line, being involved in such
;difficulty, affe&ing not only the rights and estates
lof the Honourable Proprietaries of this province,
Ibut of multitudes within it, and which however de
termined mull ruin end give diffatisfaaion to many.
---Your Memorialists could not but think it a mat
ter, in which it would be wrong even to wish the
interposition of Congress, all whose recommenda
tions should be received with reverence and without
I -urmuring, and that therefore some other mode
I fhould be agreed soon, in order to be strengthened
Iby; the recommendation of Congrefs-t-Fither, First,
I That those intruders who have so justly alarmed their
;neighbours, should withdraw, as originally proposed
Ito the Committee of Congress by your Meinorialifts;
I or, Secondly, Tl^ta plan should be deviled for pre-
Iventing their further extension of settlements, the
lintroducing any more of their people, or any way
Irnoleftipg the inhabitants of this province in their
iperfons or property, till a determination of the con-
Itroverfy by the King in Council, with some proper
security that they will abide by .that determination,
and in the mean time submit to the laws of Penn
sylvania. But on a matter of so great weight arid
concern to the province in general, we declared fur
ther, that we ,wiflied to take the advice of your
Honourable House.
Being therefore convinced that any accommodation
by means of a temporary line is an idea never enter
tained by the late or present House, we pray you
would take the premises under your wife considera
tion, and advise us whether the peace of this province
can be best preserved by the firft or second of the
"above proportions, or whether any other plan might
be more agreeable to you ; and as the settlement as
well as execution of any.plan of this kind may be
attended with difficulties and delays, of which these
intruders may wish to take advantage, as usual, we

THE house, pursuant to the order of the fore
noon, taking into consideration the report of
their committee on the Memorial of the Northum
berland and Northampton committee, together with
certain resolutions of a former house of assembly,
passed on the 13th Jan. 1774, concerning certain intru
ders from the colony of Connecticut, “ who in a riot
ous and tumultuous manner have taken possession of
a^fra& of country within the known limits and boun
daries of this province, and retain their possession in
an hostile manner, to the great disturbance of the
peace of the fame, confederating in defiance of the
laws and executive powers of this government, with
a number of ill disposed persons, and affording pro
te&ion to offenders of the,moft atrocious kind :---
Whereupon the said house resolved, that they would
concur with the governor in every reasonable mea
sure, to strengthen the hands of government in pre
serving the peace, and suppressing all riots, tumults,
and illegal attempts to disturb the inhabitants of this
provincein their peaceable possessions." And whereas
it appears that the said Connecticut intruders, in
contempt of the authority of this province, and to
the great annoyance of its peaceable inhabitants, do
still continue their intrusions and invafiens of private
property, and particularly in the latter end of Sep
tember last, regardless of the public union, and taking
an ungenerous advantage of the calamities of the
times, did attempt to extend their settlements to the
weft branch of Susquehanna, near fifty miles from
Wyoming :—Wherefore,
Resolved, That the inhabitants of the county of
Northumberland, fettled under the juri fdiaion of
this province, were juftifiable, and did their duty in
repelling the said intruders, and preventing the fur
ther extention of their settlements.
And whereas the jurifdi&ion of the counties of
Northampton and Northumberland is extended by
aCts of assembly to the North Bounds of this province,
and the matter in controversy between Connecticut
and this province is submitted to the determination of
the King in council---wherefore,
Resolved, That to admit or agree to any temporary
line of jurifdiaion between the inhabitants of this
province and the said intruders would be facrificing
the just rights and powers of this Government,
would prejudice the cause in question, and be injuri
ous not only to the Proprietaries of this province,
who have already refufed t® agree to any such tem
porary line, but likewise to all those who have pur
chased and hold lands in those parts under the faith
and fanaion of our laws.
Resolved, That those Conneaicut intruders, hav
ing in a forcible and hostile manner obtained their
•possessions in this province, ought, for the preserva
tion of the peace thereof, to furremder up those
possessions, and wait fora proper and legal decision of
their claim.
Resolved, Nevefthelefs, that this house will ac
quielce in any plan that shall he recommended by the
honourable Continental Congress, agreeable to the
. request of the late house, whereby those intruders
may be permitted to enjoy their present settlement
till a determination of the controversy by the King
in council ; provided afforance be given that they
wid abide by that determination, and in the mean
time introduce no more settlers upon the controverted
lands, and submit to the laws of this province.
Resolved, That if such an agreement cannot be

in every reasonable measure for protesting and fop
