Excerpt from Calendar of Home Office Papers of the Reign of George III, 1773-1775: Preserved in the Public Record Office The letters calendared tell very graphically the story of the meetings at Liberty Tree, and the attack of the excited crowd upon the warehouse where the consignees were assembled. We have also a sample of the kind of oratory by means of which the emotions of the people were excited, or in which these emotions found expression. A letter left in the house of one of the consignees at Boston ran - We do not wonder in the least that your apprehensions are terrible when the most enlightened, humane, and conscientious community on earth view you in the light of tigers or mad dogs whom the public safety obliges them to destroy. Long have the people been irreconcilable to the idea of spilling human blood on almost any occasion whatsoever; but they have lately seen a penitent thief suffer death for pilfering a few pounds from scatering (sic) individuals; you boldly avow a resolution to bear a principal part in the robbery of every inhabitant of this country, in the present and future ages, of everything dear and interesting to them. Are there no laws in the Book of God and Nature that enjoin such miscreants to be cut off from among the people as troublers of the whole congregation? Yea, verily, there are laws, and officers to put them in execution, which you can neither corrupt, intimidate, nor escape, and whose resolution to bring you to condign punishment you can only avoid by a speedy imitation of your brethren in Philadelphia. It would have been matter of little surprise if those to whom such threats were addressed had yielded to them, coupled as they were with demands made with all due formality, proceeding from the town meeting, and presented by Mr. Hancock, the moderator of it, and others. But the refusal of the tea factors is firm and dignified (p. 168), though declared by the meeting to be "daringly affrontive."
