Laws here include acts "for quieting and settling the Disorders that have lately happened within this Province" 1691 "for restraining and punishing Privateers and Pyrates" 1693 and 1698 and "against Jesuites and Popish Priests" 1700 as well as numerous acts "for Regulating Slaves" and one for "Baptizing them" 1706.
