To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Investigations of the accounts of one in particular added to Sharpe's worries and harass- ments when settling Parson Allen's and Mr. Jordan's difficulties.
CHAPTER XV THE STAMP ACT In 1763 a new cabinet had been formed in England. George Grenville took the place of the Earl of Bute at the head of the Treasury, and the Earl of Egremont and Lord Halifax became secretaries of state.
Immediately on its formation, Grenville renewed the attempt for the passage of a revenue bill extending the stamp du...ties to the colonies. On the 9th of March 1764 he read in the House of Commons a series of resolutions declaring the intention of the Government to raise a revenue in America by a duty on stamped paper, announcing, however, that the colonies should have an opportunity of suggesting other modes of taxation. In August 1764 Lord Halifax wrote to Governor Sharpe announcing the intention of the Government to charge certain stamp duties in the colonies and plantations, a scheme which Pitt had charac- terised as taking an unjust and ungenerous advantage of them.
