	The US50 - A guide to the state of New Hampshire - History

	U.S.: New Hampshire Governor Vetoes Anti-Death Penalty Measure
		New Hampshire’s House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed the bill, but the vote in the Senate was 12-11 in favor of the measure.
		New Hampshire has not imposed the death penalty in 65 years, and the state has not executed a juvenile offender since colonial times.
		With that in mind, the New Hampshire governor’s refusal to let the bill become law is probably less important than the fact that the legislature sent it to him.

	Historical Biographies, Nova Scotia: Governor, Sir John Wentworth (1737-1820).
		Governor Parr took issue on the basis that the people he was taking fees from (newly arrived loyalists) were promised land grants without fees.
		Governor Wentworth, however, thought that he and his friends should just continue along with their outdated notion31 that the prerogative rights of the crown, as Wentworth represented, were not to be affected by the resolutions of the elected assembly.
		It is to be remembered that John Parr was named the full Governor of Nova Scotia in 1782; and, I might say at this point was to continue on as the governor until his death in 1791, at which time John Wentworth, finally, was named as the governor of Nova Scotia.

	New Hampshire Grants - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		New York based its claim on the letters Patent granted the Prince Edward Augustus, Duke of York and Albany all of the lands west of the Connecticut River to Delaware Bay.

	Benning Wentworth

		He refused to enforce the Acts of Trade, and thus, New Hampshire’s trade expanded as merchants participated in the "triangle trade" between the colonies, Europe and Africa, and the islands in the Caribbean.
