Abstract
The Original Minutes of His Majesty’s Council at Annapolis Royal, 1720–1739 show some interesting examples of English. As is to be expected, the English used corresponds closely with late seventeenth and early eighteenth century British English and with American English of New England records or the same periods. The British English documents ‘with which these Minutes have most in common are the Wentworth Papers, 1705-1739 and the Verney Letters, 1696-1717.
