Well, Billy was a Quaker boy, black-sheep son of a British Admiral. I suspect he'd lived a rather sheltered life--unless we count that short stay in the Tower of London for heresy, of course. He was no doubt distraught to see his "greene country towne" turn into a massive seaport and colonial metropolis
But Jag must positively worship Penn, who beleived in setting international disputes via arbitration. UN day is even celebrated on Penn's birthday...
