Act of Renunciation, 1776
This act, passed on May 4, 1776, officially repealed Rhode Island Colony’s allegiance to King George III
of England. Rhode Island was the first state to renounce its allegiance to the King and passage of this
act preceded the Declaration of Independence by two months.
In the original document the second paragraph is crossed out and replaced with a new paragraph
which is written out on a separate page.

_______
An Act repealing an Act entitled “An Act for the effectual securing to His Majesty the Allegiance of His
Subjects in this His Colony and Dominion of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations” and altering the
Form of Commissions of all Writs and Processes in the Courts, and of the Oaths prescribed by Law.
Whereas George the Third King of Great Britain entirely departing from the Duties and Character of a
good King instead of protecting is endeavoring to destroy the good People of this Colony and of all the
United Colonies by sending Fleets and Armies to America to confiscate our Property and spread Fire
Sword and Desolation throughout our Country in order to compel us to submit to the most debasing
and detestable Slavery And whereas Protection and Allegiance are reciprocal, the latter being only
due in Consequence of the former:
And Be it further Enacted by this General Assembly, and by the Authority thereof It is Enacted that in
all Commissions for Offices Civil and Military and in all Writs and Processes in Law whether original,
judicial or executory civil or criminal wherever the Name and Authority of the said King is made Use of
the same shall be omitted and in the Room thereof the Name and Authority of the Governor and
Company of this Colony shall be substituted in the following Words to wit: “The Governor and
Company of the English Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations” That all such Commissions
Writs and Processes shall be otherwise of the same Form and Tenor as they heretofore were: That the
Courts of Law be no longer entitled nor considered as the Kings Courts: And that no Instrument in
Writing of any Nature or Kind, whether public or private, shall in the Date thereof mention the Year of
the said King’s Reign: Provided nevertheless, That nothing in this Act contained shall render void or
vitiate any Commission, Writ, Process or Instrument, heretofore made or executed, on Account of the
Name and Authority of the said King being therein inserted.
And be it further Enacted by the Authority aforesaid, That the Oaths or Engagements to be

administered to the Officers appointed in this Colony shall be as follows, to wit
General Officers
“You ____ being by the free Vote of the Freemen of this Colony of Rhode Island
and Providence Plantations elected unto the Place of _______ do solemnly engage to be true
and faithful unto this said Colony, and in your said Office equal Justice to do unto all Persons, poor and
rich, within this Jurisdiction, to the utmost of your Skill and Ability, without Partiality, according to the
Laws established, or that may be established, by the General Assembly of this Colony, as well in
Matters military as civil: And this Engagement you make and give upon the Peril of the Penalty of
Perjury.”
[There are additional pages of oaths which have been omitted here since they do not add significantly
to the meaning of the document.]
[The next two paragraphs are the replacement language for the crossed-out paragraph on the first
page. These replacement paragraphs appear on a separate page in the original document.]
Whereas in all States existing by Compact Protection and allegiance are reciprocal the latter being only
due in Consequence of the former: And Where as George the Third King of Britain forgetting his
dignity, regardless of the Compact most solemnly
entered into ratified & confirmed to the Inhabitants of this Colony by his illustrious Ancestors- and till
of late fully recognized by him and entirely departing from the duties and Character of a good king-
instead of Protecting is endeavoring to destroy
the good people of this Colony, and of all the united Colonies by sending Fleets and Armies to America
to confiscate our Property and to spread Fire, Sword and Desolation throughout our Country in order
to compel us to submit to the debasing and detestable Tyranny whereby we are obliged by necessity
and it becomes our highest Duty to use every means with which God and Nature have furnished us, in
support of our invaluable rights, & privileges to oppose that Power which is exerted only for our
destruction.
Be it therefore Enacted by this General Assembly and by the Authority thereof it is Enacted that an Act entitled
