11Title:  A true and impartial state of the province of Pennsylvania: Containing, an exact account of the nature of its government; the power of the proprietaries, and their governors; as well those they have assumed in manifest violation thereof, their father's charter, and the rights of the people, which they claim under the said grant, charter, and laws of their country, confirmed by the royal approbation. With a true narrative of the dispute between the governors and assemblies, respecting the grants of supplies so often made by the latter, and rejected by the former.
