for nine states to ratify 1t before 1t

The early history Of Delaware was
a varied one. It started in 1888 when
a small party of Swedes settled at the
mouth of the Delaware river and
called it New Sweden. In 1865, Peter
Stuyvesant, governor of the Dutch col
Ony of New Netherlands, annexed this
territory. But it did not long remain
Dutch, for In 1864 the English took
possession. When Pennsylvania was
decided to William Penn he desired ac-
cess to the seacoast and at his urgent
request Delaware was transferred to
PENIS proprietorship. From the be-
ginning of the eighteenth century,
however, Delaware had its separate
legislature, and at the time of the
Revolution it became an independent
state.
Delaware is next to the smallest
of our states, having an area of only
2,370 square miles. It's participation in
presidential elections is limited to
three electors. This is arranged ac-
cording to population. Each state Is
entitled to the same number of presi-
Dental electors as it has members OF
congress, so the influence of the diff
ferent states in voting for the Presi-
dent varies from Delaware's three
electors to New YOrk's 45.
AS to the derivation of the name
Delaware, this was appropriately
given to the state from the river,
which in turn was named after the
bay and the bay was called Delaware
In honor of Lord Delaware, who was
governor Of the Virginia colony in
1910.
