A short state of the countries and trade of North America. Claimed by the Hudson's Bay Company, under pretence of a charter for ever, of lands without bounds or limits, and an exclusive trade to those unbounded seas and countries; Shewing The Illegality of the said Grant, and the Abuse they have made of it; and the great Benefit Britain may obtain by settling those Countries, and extending the Trade amongst the Natives by civilizing and incorporating with them, and laying a Foundation for their becoming Christians and industrious Subjects of Great-Britain; and the Necessity there is of a Parliamentary Enquiry into the pretended Rights and exclusive Monopoly claimed by the said Company, and their Abuse of the Grant. That those Countries may be settled, either by fixing a Company under proper Regulations and Restrictions, or by laying open the Trade to all the British Merchants, and settling them, at the Publick Expence, or by a moderate Tax upon that Trade.
