The election of thirty-seven Burgesses on August 31st 1782 was the first held after the termination of the political warfare between the Government party and the Whigs, a warfare that had existed for many years ; had led to no less than four Quo Warranto informations being heard in the King's Bench, viz. on l0th Feb. 1714, 13th Feb. 1775, Feb. 12th 1777 and the 28th January 1780 ; and on each occasion caused the names of a large number of Burgesses to be removed from the Burgess Roll.
