8329. TAXES, Consent and.—
He
[George III] has endeavored to pervert the
exercise of the kingly office in Virginia into a
detestable and unsupportable tyranny * * *
by combining with others to subject us to a
foreign jurisdiction, giving his assent to their
pretended acts of legislation * * * for imposing
taxes on us without our consent.—
Proposed Va. Constitution.
Ford ed., ii, 10.
(June. 1776)
