	Early Canada Historical Narratives -- UPPER CANADA'S LIEUTENANT-GOVERNORS AND THE COLONIAL OFFICE
		When Governor Gore promptly appointed his own secretary to this position, people in the province were disappointed, for they knew the governor would exercise close control over the agent, monitor his actions and interpret his reports to suit the interests of the governor and not necessarily those of the colony.
		Governors were selected, not because of any special aptitude for or knowledge about the colony, but for reasons usually unrelated to the interests of the colony to which they were being sent.
		Military governors had few political or diplomatic skills, and they held the extreme views of their aristocratic Tory class which was that the finer things in life should be only for those with prestige, property and influence.

	The Colonial Currency
		Colonial paper currency, generally called bills of credit, was issued on two bases: on the credit of the colony supported by tax funds, and on loan.
		The existing colonial price indices based upon the prices of a few commodities bought or sold in foreign commerce are in no way indicative of the general price level.10 The colonial prices of such commodities depend predominantly upon the conditions of supply and demand in foreign markets and on the rate of exchange.
		In a colony where a specie standard prevailed and bills of credit were not issued as war finance measures, as was the case in Massachusetts between 1750 and 1775, the price of exchange fluctuated in harmony with that in New York and Pennsylvania, but the fluctuations were not so great.

	Forfeiture in England and Colonial America
		Some were royal colonies (such as Virginia) thought to be under direct control of the Crown; others were chartered colonies (e.g., Massachusetts) in which extensive governing rights were given to a charter company; still others were proprietary colonies (e.g., Maryland and Pennsylvania) in which a single owner had been granted vast authority [Hall, 1989:14].
		This created a difficult situation, because slaves, in many of the colonies, were considered chattel and could, theoretically, be included as part of a forfeiture if their owner were convicted and attained for a capital felony.
		Given the fact that a number of colonies had abolished the use of forfeiture and corruption of blood, it is not surprising that the Constitutional Convention of 1787 took up the issue.
