Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Relations Between Maryland and Virginia England until 1638, six years after the charter of Maryland was granted to Cecilius Calvert. Meanwhile, in every act of resistance to the Proprietary of Maryland, Claiborne was backed by the strongest expressions of encouragement and approval from the King and from the Council of Virginia. A few years later the relations between the two colonies were further complicated by the expulsion of a large number of Puritans from Virginia and their settlement in Maryland. During the Protectorate, when the hand of Lord Baltimore was powerless, these Puritans quarreled with the Catholics and a state of civil war for some time prevailed. Claiborne was in no way responsible for this state of affairs, and although he was one Of the commissioners appointed by Parliament for the reduction of the colonies to the authority Of the Common wealth Of England, he seems to have had very little to do with Maryland at this period.
