Excerpt from Vindication of the Rights and Titles, Political and Territorial, of Alexander, Earl of Stirling Dovan, and Lord Proprietor of Canada and Nova Scotia These charters gave the Earl of Stirling vast political and administrative powers. He was made his Majesty's hereditary lieutenant general over the whole countries of Nova Scotia and Canada. He Was also made justice general, high admiral, lord of regality, and hereditary steward. The power was con ferred upon him of making officers of state and justice, of con ferring titles of honor, of coining money, and the privilege of making laws concerning the public state, good and government of the country. He had the power of appointing one hundred and fifty baronets, called Baronets of Nova Scotia, who were to take precedence of all other baronets. Under this power the first Earl actually made over one hundred baronets; nearly fifty of the present baronets in Great Britain hold their titles from patents granted by the first Earl of Stirling.
