A: The trustees wanted colonists settle their differences outside of court; lawyers would not help colonists do this.

Warm-up for 09.20.112. Why do you think it was important to the trustees to have colonists settle their differences outside of court?• Legal proceedings = often drug out over

long periods of time• Court rulings can later be challenged

thus keeping problems in a state of limbo without a real, lasting solution.

• Fairly popular thought that lawyers thrive off of dissention and fighting, thus trustees wanted colonists to work issues out themselves partly because colonists were too busy with making the colony “work” to fight over matters for very long.
