Governor Patrick Gordon was sympathetic to the measure, but, while he appeared willing to ignore Hannah Penn's instructions to his predecessor, he hesitated to offend the Board of Trade.
In 1726 the board had indicated to Gordon its low opinion of bills of credit and the damage paper money purportedly had caused in neighboring colonies, and advised him that it would recommend to the crown the repeal of any future paper money acts from Pennsylvania.
The two governors cited royal instructions or the length of the excise taxes needed to support some of the proposed emissions as the reasons for their vetos.

 Jonathan Belcher: Governor in the Emerging Trilateral Center
But as long as the colonies were divided, with each colonial concerned only for his own interests and the interests of his own colony, and not as concerned for the welfare of the citizens of the other colonies, the Americans would not muster the initiative to create such an intercolonial, America-wide military force.
Halifax's period of greatest activity was 1750-1754, when he intimidated local colonial politicians by proposing wide-sweeping measures for overhauling the administration of the American colonies and frightened colonials accustomed to believing their own version of the British constitution--that colonial assemblies were on a legislative parity with the British Parliament.
The colonial assemblies were to elect the members of this representative council, and unlike Bladen's bicameral Plantation Parliament, Franklin's Grand Council was to function as a unicameral legislature, whose acts were subject to the veto of the (Crown-appointed) President General.

 The Frontier In American History: Chapter III
Riots occurred when the colonial authorities attempted to assert possession, and the matter was at length compromised in 1719 by allowing Litchfield to be settled in accordance with the town grants, while the colony reserved the larger part of northwestern Connecticut.
The diplomacy of New York governors during this period of the Old West, in securing a protectorate over the Six Nations and a consequent claim to their territory, and in holding them aloof from France, constituted the most effective contribution of that colony to the movement of American expansion.
Among the objects of the colony, as specified in the charters, were the relief of the poor and the protection of the frontiers.

From 1652 to 1660 the Governors were elected by the House of Burgesses, though there is some reason to believe that their choice may have been influenced by the wishes of the Parliamentary authorities, or of Cromwell.
The Councillors were the Governor's advisers in executive matters, and patents, etc., are stated to be issued with their "advice and consent." They constituted the General Court -the supreme court of the Colony and also had legislative functions as members of the upper house of the Assembly, corresponding somewhat to our senate.
The colonial almanacs (which were always published late in the year before that whose date they bear-as is the case now) contain lists which have in the main been found to be very accurate, of the members of the House in existence at the time when the almanac was printed.

 H-Net Review: Jerry Frost on William Penn
For example, her proof that Penn intended to sell the colony from its beginning is based upon a 1725 letter of James Logan.
She argues that Pennsylvania was not simply the product of one man's collecting on a debt to create a religious utopia, but resulted from Charles II's fear of civil war at the time of the exclusion crisis.
Her stress upon the influence of merchants in the drafts of Frames of Government and later history of the colony is needed.
