Luffy on his quest to claim the greatest treasure, the legendary One Piece, and become the Pirate King. Boston, Mar 31, 1766. Dear Sir I kept this Cover open waiting for the Boston Gazette of this day: & it is flagitious beyond expectation; & furnishes sufficient proof of the Overthrow of this Government. I think it is of importance enough to lay before you their Lordships to show them that my Fears for the Recovery of Government here are not without foundation. I must particularly point out the following passages; 1. An Address to the Sons of Liberty to recommend that if the Sons of Liberty Representatives don’t turn out of the Council all persons bearing Offices, & lower their Salaries, &c, &c, it is to be resented by the Sons of Liberty. Then follows. 2, a List of the Members of the House who are on the side of Government as proper objects of the resentment of the Sons of Liberty. 3, is a Letter from Col Barre to M r Otis, which is left to your Consideration. Is an attempt to take away the Governors power of proroguing & dissolving the Assembly by Proclamation. I shall dissolve them by proclamation next Monday, & then if they meet, which, I dont think many besides the Members of this Town, will, it must be at their own Peril. There are some other things worth notice; particularly an advertisement for rejoicing (ie mobbing) on the News of repealing the Stamp Act. I am glad that I have an Opportunity of adding this Paper; as it very much confirms my Apprehensions of farther Mischief & danger to the Government. Pownall Esq r. The editors of this online resource advise that “the Journals of the House of Lords follow the same model as for those of the House of Commons.. The volumes are from the Hartley Library [ Univ. Of Southampton], but give no information as to date, order or printer.”. The first thirty-one volumes (covering the period up to 1767) were published between 1771 and 1777; vol. 36, published in 1808, took the series up to 1779. Bellot, “Parliamentary printing, 1660-1837,” Bulletin of the Institute of Historical Research 9 (1933-34). A second edition was published in 1774 with a variant title and additional papers. Select Letters on the Trade and Government of America; and the Principles of Law and Polity, Applied to the American Colonies. Written by Governor Bernard, at Boston, In the Years 1763, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. Now first published: To which are added The Petition of the Assembly of Massachuset’s Bay against the Governor, his Answer thereto, and the Order of the King in Council thereon (London: T. Payne, 1774). It was reprinted in Boston by Cox and Berry and advertised for sale on 27 Oct. Sons of Liberty groups had been created in most of the colonies to co-ordinate opposition to the Stamp Act. The best history remains Pauline Maier, From Resistance to Revolution: Colonial Radicals and the Development of American Opposition to Britain, 1765-1776 (New York; 1972; ed. London, 1991). According to Maier, organized resistance to the Stamp Act was most advanced in New York, where the Sons of Liberty began corresponding with other colonies. But the groups in Boston and Connecticut, to which FB refers in this letter, were just as forward as the New Yorkers in advocating and delivering resistance to the act. In short, the Sons of Liberty successfully converted popular discontent with parliamentary taxation into popular action and sustained opposition to Grenville’s reforms throughout the winter of 1765 and well into the spring of 1766 (as FB often noted). FB is referring to an advertisement placed by “The Committee of the True-born SONS OF LIBERTY” giving notice of a recent meeting at “THEIR OWN apartment” in Hanover Square*, the committee expressed their “deepest Abhorrence and Detestation” of two “abusive and threatening Letters” that had been received by Sheriff Stephen Greenleaf and his deputy Benjamin Cudworth. ![]() The Sons of Liberty professed to “heartily join in” the resolution of the Boston town meeting of 26 Dec., where Whig William Molineux had confirmed the reports of “several Gentlemen” that the Suffolk County courts of probate would meet as scheduled on 13 Jan. Molineux’s confidence was based on much more than opinion. Thomas Hutchinson, who had resolutely opposed opening the courts in defiance of the Stamp Act, had removed himself from the Whigs’ line of fire by temporarily demitting office as judge of probate in favor of his younger brother Foster (ostensibly so that TH could travel to England). The Board agreed to nominate Foster Hutchinson as a “special Judge” for one year, with TH continuing as the office-holder (which he did until 1769). While TH was uneasy with this arrangement (and would have preferred to resign), FB convinced him that he could make such an appointment without using stamped papers. Thus, with Foster Hutchinson deputized and ready to conduct business, Sheriff Greenleaf notified the town that he was ready to serve writs for the Suffolk probate court. But Greenleaf also intimated that he had received “highly abusive and inflamitery” letters “tending to the Destruction of all good Order and Government.” These threats the town unanimously condemned and promised that “they will be at all Times ready to assist the Civil Magistrates and support all Officers in the Execution of their Trust according to the Laws and Usage of this Land.” Boston Gazette, Supplement, 30 Dec. 1765; Council minutes for 21 Dec.
