The resulting taxes and laws imposed by Parliament where the colonists had no representation were met first by protests, then boycots, and ultimately, inevitably, armed resistance. The long series of provocations and incidents between 1764 and 1775, includ- ing the Boston Massacre fMarch 5, 17701 and the Boston Tea Party fDecember 16, 17732, finally led to the Intolerable Acts of 1774 which, in turn, resulted of the First Con- -f ., tinental Con- gress.

Colonial forces from New York take Fort Ticonderoga, but suffer defeats at Quebec, losing General Montgomery, and at Bunker Hill above Boston, losing one the most able and active leaders of the origi- nal colonial opposition, Dr. joseph Warren. Even though colonial opposition t repressive British rule had flared into armed rebellion many colonists remained loyal to the Crown fighting not for in- dependence but for their rights as citi- ever with Parliament s decision to mount a massive campaign to crush the rebel- lion in its infancy including the use of German mercenary soldiers many pre- viously-loyal Tories became convinced that justice under George III was impos- sible. o zens of the British Commonwealth.
