To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" To serve as an overseer was made a compulsory duty and no compensation was allowed. 1 Besides the townships and counties for building and maintaining highways and caring for the poor, borough governments were established, of which Germantown was the first. By its charter of 1689 six members were chosen committee-men, who with the bailiff and bur- gesses, were the general court of the corporation of Germantown. Once a year the court met and elected officers taken from the membership of the cor...poration. Thus the borough began its political career by limiting the right of full citizenship to a select few. One of the provisions declared that the "yeomen by the name of bailiff, burgesses and commonalty and their successors were at all times thereafter to be able and capable in law, with joint stock to trade, and that the same or any part thereof to have, take, purchase, possess, and enjoy manors, messuages and lands, tenements and rents of the yearly value of ^1500 per annum. " Having a court of their own, the citizens thought that they ought to be independent of the court of Phila- delphia County.
