1710 CE

Cary had removed the oath requirement and restored Quakers to the government, and so from 1708–1710, Cary and the Quakers dominate the government of the northern section of Carolina.

Cary has also lowered the quit-rents for Bath County, which are essentially a land tax charged in exchange for the royal land grants.

Cary's government is not endorsed by the Lords Proprietors and so has no official legal standing.
