In small groups Virginians began to meet at the Raleigh Tavern and the Bruton Parrish Church to form a resolution. With the help of a colonel from Mount Vernon, George Washington, they framed the Virginia Resolutions. Before long all the colonies were adopting resolves, re- fusing taxation without representation. The spring of 1766 saw the repeal of the Stamp Act. But King George, fearing that other British territories would follow America's lead and refuse to pay their taxes, decided to make an example of the American ,colonies by putting them in their place. Every man in England seems to consider himself as a piece of a sovereign over America. Benjamin Franklin 1767 In place of an internal tux, external taxes were levied on such goods as lead, glass, paper, paint and tea. Several other acts, among them the Townshend Act, levying duties and permitting the search and seizure of property, soon became the law. Local government was giving way to control by men paid by the Crown.

If this be treason, make the most of it! Patrick Henry 1765 Through the years of 1767-69, tensions seethed just below the surface. Most of the trouble occurred in the port cities and surrounding areas. The press became more unified and more outspoken for colonial rights. f .. 1 . xx H tt! --fp ..

The colonies showed unity by boycotting English goods. By the spring of 1770, after the tally sheets of British merchants showed a strong decline in revenue, the Townshend Act died. All that re- mained was a small tax on tea. The American patriots still were not satisfied. Skirmishes be- tween the Sons of Liberty and British troops garrisoned in Boston, New York, and Phila- delphia would occasionally break out, but not until March 5, 1770, was the real spark ignited. A British sentry was standing his post' that night in front of the Commons House in Boston while local toughs taunted him. Several other guards came to assist him and soon the mob had grown to considerable size. A shot was fired and, before order was restored, several colonials were dead or wounded. What soon became known as the 'tBoston Massacreu was a signal fire to militant radicals like Samuel Adams of Boston. Fanning the flames wherever and when- ever possible, the rebels kept alive the spirit of independence. England remained antagonistic to the cause of independence during 1771-72, steering a middle course with the colonies, trying for some reason- able solution. During this time, however, the Sons Raleigh Tavern and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Natures God entitle them, a decent ies 1 of Liberty continued to exchange ideas through the efforts of the Committee of Correspondence. Formed by Samuel Adams, the Committee used post riders to deliver pamphlets and letters deal- ing with the latest British offenses, and the newest hopes for colonial freedom. One of the best of these riders was the Boston silversmith, Paul Revere. Meanwhile, Benjamin Franklin, Deputy Post- master General, was in England trying patiently to work out the problems between the Crown and the colonies. It was here that he came into possession of some letters which indicated that 7' ' l lik. . Xxx s, fl-Q ' in il' M! I - is Y!,,--N2-ix. I l . X: f h 'gi fi -ix' G Xi LN.

Samuel Adams 1768 In 1773, the British Parliament again blundered, but for the last time. To assist the financially troubled East India Company, England gave it an exclusive monopoly on tea imports to the colonies. This sanctioned monopoly, combined with the tea tax still in effect, fanned the flames of revolt. As ships arrived, the patriots held tea partiesf' In Boston, Sam Adams organized 150 men, disguised as Indians, to dump 342 chests of tea into the harbor in protest of the tax. 2' Independence Hall - Philadelphia This act was repeated in other colonial ports and was, according to the British, the most wanton and unprovoked insult offered to a civil power . . . recorded in history. King George III knew what had to be done: s'Suppress the revolt with troops, do not negotiate, make America obeyf, The line had been drawn and the flames assumed the proportions of an inferno. In the fall of 1774, delegates from every colony journeyed to Philadelphia to form the First Continental Congress. The time had finally arrived to display some unity of purpose. Philadelphia, a booming city of 30,000, greeted her visitors with the jubilant sound of pealing church bells. After much arguing and heated debate on pro- tion 1--We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, cedures and voting rights. Patrick Henry jumped to his feet, saying, Let free men be represented by numbers alone . . . there are no distinctions HERE . . . I am not a Virginian, I am an Ameri- can. The Congress put forth a set of resolutions similar to Massachusetts' Suffolk Resolves, stating colonial rights to life, liberty and property, the rights to free assembly and exclusive power to determine taxation and internal policy. Thirteen acts of Parliament were declared illegal. Eco- nomic boycotts were to be brought against England, until such time of their repeal. All future imports from England were to cease! During the winter months of 1774, tension ran high in Boston. More and more of King Georgels troops arrived. As cold weather also arrived, it became impractical for the troops to quarter on the Commons. General Thomas Gage,the British Commander, tried ' to hire labor to build huts, but to no avail. Unemployment was high, the British wages good but few Bostonians responded with any spirit of cooperativeness. Keeping up the troops' morale was difficult. so marches were made across the bay to the interior. On one such march, American arms and powder were confiscated by the British at Cambridge and Charlestowng the reaction to these forays was the organization of the Com- mittee ofSafety. . John Hancock, a wealthy merchant and shipper, was selected to head the group. The Committee was given the power to call out the militia - of the entire colony if necessary f at any sign of at they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable Rights, that among these are distress. Each unit of men had a few who were subject to instant call. They were designated Minutemen, The Committee set about pro- curing arms and provisions for up to l5,000 militiamen, choosing Concord as a suitable depot because of its distance from the British troops in Boston. The spring of 1775 brought British retaliation with new acts forbidding the colonies to trade :E anywhere except with England or the British West Indies.

Richard Price 1770 aroused by the large troop movements being made outside Boston, and arrangements were made with patriots to warn the Committee if at any time more than 500 British troops left the city's garrison. On the night of April l8, l775, Paul Revere. was awakened and warned of British activities. While being rowed across Charles Harbor, Revere looked for and found his signal A two lanterns in the spire of Old North Church, the sign that the British were moving in force, by water. Revere's main objective was to warn John Hancock and Sam Adams, who were staying in the Hancock-Clarke House in Lexington. After doing so he joined William Dawes and Samuel Prescott, soon they were ambushed by a British patrol and Revere was captured. He was later released without his horse. By that time, how- ever, others had warned every Middlesex village and farm. General Gage's men were not in the best of moods: being aroused soon after going to bed, rowing across the Charles river, disembarking into knee deep water and standing for two hours in the cold night before marching off to Lex- ington-Concord had made them anxious, to say g Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed That whenever any the least. All night long the sounds of bells ringing in the distance and men running through the woods kept them on edge. Arriving in the early morning on Lexington Green under the com- mand of Captain John Pitcairn, the British troops faced two companies of Minutemen commanded by Captain John Parker. The situation was not promising for the Ameri- cans, so Captain Parker ordered his troops to disband. Major Pitcairn, meanwhile, ordered his men to form a line but on no account to fire or even attempt it without orders. Who fired the first shot will never be known, but after the skirmish was over, 8 American patriots lay dead. The remaining militia scattered and the British marched on to Concord. The Minu temen waiting in the grey dawn along the road into Concord had just received the news of Lexingt on Green when they saw the approach of the scailet-coated British troops.

The cautious, the moderate, the conservative elementsjoined with the extreme and the liberal to form a common bond. They promised to defend each other with their lives and their fortunes. The War had begun! - Soon the colonies of North and South Carolina were raising money and troops to join the cause. The most immediate action, however, came from Massachusetts' northern neighbors: from Con- necticut, Israel Putnam brought 3,000 men, in- cluding the Governor's own foot guards led by Benedict Arnold: Rhode Island sent troops com- manded by handsome Nathaniel Greeng New Hampshire sent the old Indian fighter Colonel John Stark with a force ofurugged men. By mid-May these new troops formed the New England Army. ln Boston General Gage waited patiently and passively for the hour ofconflict. It came on May 10, 1775, with an assault on old Fort Ticonderoga on Lake Champlain. Ethan Allen and his Green Mountain Boys, assisted by Benedict Arnold and some Connecticut troops, quickly overran the small British garrisong al- though the fort itself was situated on a useless piece of land, within lay a vast array of artillery. June 17, 1775, the first major encounter between British and American forces occurred above Charlestown, across the river from Boston. The Americans intended to entrench on Bunker Hill, but, in the dark, they mistakenly dug into Breed's Hill, a position closer to the water and to the British gunboats. Later it was called The Battle of Bunker Hillf' even though little fighting took place there. A-1 ,p Xb it .lt , - Q-T' :A l x A A Hg! ff .x .3 H, fir., I whfq ?' - .' f 'ff Y'Xs...f 1 .

After an all morning shelling, the city of Charlestown was ablaze, and even seasoned troops would have been justified in giving ground.

As a result, the British marched with honor to defeat. If vic- tory was ever to be theirs, English generals would have to alter their tactics. On the tame day in Philadelphia the Second Continenifal Congress also made history. John Adams esented before the delegates his Grand pf Plan for a Continental Army, consisting of sol- diers frofn every colony. He went on to nominate Colonel general. Discussi son, pre George Washington as its commanding on lasted two days before Thomas Jeffer- siding that day as head of the Congress, was askeii to inform George Washington, Esq. of the unanimous vote , . . to be Commanding Gen- eral and lCommander-in-Chief of the forces to be raised in defense of American liberty. Washington, concerned about his inexperience with such accepted an extensive and important trust, the responsibility with humility and some reservation. As no pecuniary considera- tion cou arduous lid have tempted me to have accepted this employment . , ., 'he stated, HI do not wish to niake a profit from it. The Congress made one final effort in July, 1775, to settle the differences between the Crown and the colonies. The Olive Branch petition, as it was callefi, was signed by 25 of the same men who a year later would sign the Declaration of Inde- pendenc e. King George refused to see the bearer treated across the small neck of the Peninsula to Of this d0CUm6Hf, William PCHIYS gfHfIdSOH, the safety of the mainland. RiChHrd.t l uch form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Swfety and Happiness. Prudence, i l eed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and tra General Washington worked through the fall of '75, reviewing his military assets and liabilities. He visited the various commanders and built con- fidence in his chain of command. Recruiting was difficult because many had enlisted for only eight months and would have to be talked into re-enlisting. The only arms they had were their personal rifles. The present extent of Washing- ton's artillery was that captured from the British at Ticonderoga, 300 wilderness miles away from Boston where it was needed. During the December 31st attack on the citadel city of Quebec, a devastating defeat was suffered by the American armies in the north and many fine troops were wasted in the deadly cold and snow. General Richard Montgomery was killed and Colonel Benedict Arnold was wounded. It was a demoralized force that retreated back through the ice and snow down the St. Lawrence to old Fort Ticonderoga that January, and only through the courage displayed by Arnold were they able to persevere. Later that spring the Brit- ish sent a flotilla with additional men into Canada. In Boston, General Howe quietly replaced Gen- eral Gage as British Commander. While Boston lay blockaded to the East, and the Northern armies of Benedict Arnold licked their wounds and tried to regroup after defeat, the Con- tinental Congress debated what the next course of action should be for the colonies in their relation- Here for l the first time the thoughts John Adams i had voicdd were articulated in every day language l for everyone to read. An attack on the very institution of Royalty, Common Sense helped promote the idea of independence as a concept to be sought by all people.

The protestations were waved aside, and he was left alone to choose the words that would create a new republic. Oc- casionally during those days before July, Franklin or another colleague would visit to offer a minor change. On or about the 28th of June, Jefferson copied his rough draft, on which all later major changes were noted. The copy was presented to Congress the 'sFirst day of July, 1776. The Declaration was read and opened for debate. John Dickenson of Pennsylvania strongly ob- jected to the document: I had rather forfeit popularity forever, than vote away the blood and happiness of my Countryman . . . it is like destroy- ing our house in winter . . . before we have another shelter. Thus argued the man who would later defend America as a private in the Continental Army. John Adams spoke later in the day, as lightning crashed and driving rain pounded the Philadelphia State House. Nature herself, it seemed, suffered the selfsame pangs as those locked in heated debate within. The following day, as more delegates arrived, the vote for independence was taken and approved. Now it remained to vote for the Declaration itself, which would explain to the world why the fight for independence was necessary. Tyranny, like Hell, is not .ly 9081 conquered: yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict the more glorious the triumph.

It was a jubilant sound signaling the colonies, proclamation of freedom, yet doleful in its warn- ing of the dangers which lay ahead. A new nation would now have to earn its declared freedom.
