Since I wrote the note to Her Excellency at the request of the Seneschal of 
Seawinds, perhaps some clarification iis in order.  I did not "petition" on 
behalf of the shire to be included in a principality.  Neither I or the 
Seneschal have that authority.  I did ask, inasmuch as we were having our own 
event and could not attend the discussion, that Baroness Jehanne express our 
interest in being included in the discussion.  The whole question came up 
between populace meetings and would certainly have to be presented to the to 
the populace as a whole.  However, Romanus presented the question at fighter 
practice last night and I would say that most were interested in pursuing the 
issue.

I did not speak for them.  In fact, I specifically said I could not speak for 
either La Marche Sauvage or River Tree.  I did suggest that they might want to 
be consulted and pointed out the fact that if the principality became kingdomm 
we three shires would have to drive through the kingdom to reach most of our 
kingdom events.
