Edition Notes

Broadside printed "in pursuance of the Quebec order-in-Council for land boards to maintain a registry of loyalists ... and in the absence of such registries in Upper Canada, Simcoe directs loyalists claiming confirmation of land grants to take oath of their adherence to the unity of Empire in the American Revolution, before local magistrates in the next michaelmas quarter-sessions, or forfeit their right to fee-free grants"--Tremaine

At end: Given under my hand and seal at arms, at the government house at York, this sixth day of April, in the year of our Lord, one thousand seven hundred and ninety-six, and in the thirty-sixth year of His Majesty's reign, John Graves Simcoe ... by his Excellency's command, E.B. Littlehales.
