Afraid to meet parliament on the naked proposal of the expediency of taxing America, Grenville, with consummate art, resolved to place it upon the most general and acknowledged grounds of whig Policy. Lloyd's Conduct, &c. 119. The king, therefore, on opening the session on the tenth of January, most wisely for the immediate gain of great majorities by his ministry, most unwisely for his own peace and the welfare of his realm, presented the American question as one of obedience to the laws and respect for the legislative authority of the kingdom. The raising such a question was dangerous in the extreme; if passed by undecided, it must leave the administration of the colonies in confusion; if de
ant, an infamous, atrocious, and nefarious crime. A colonist, murmured a Boston man who had dipped into Grenville's pamphlet, a colonist cannot make a horse-shoe or a hob-nail, but some ironmonger of Britain shall chap. XIV.} 1765.

Colden's Corr. Boston Gazette. N. Y. Gazette. Providence Gaz. Lloyd's Conduct, &c. Newport Mercury. We will eat no lamb, promised the multitude, seeking to retaliate; we will wear no mourning at funerals. We will none of us import British goods, said the traders in the towns.

rds the colonies in the dilemma, that, if parliament should make concessions, their authority would be lost; if they used external force, affection was alienated for ever. We are not bound to yield obedience, voted the freemen of Providence, echoing the resolves of Virginia. The patriots of Rhode Island, remembering the renowned founders of the colonies, thanked God, that their pleasant homes in the western world abounded in the means of defence. Providence Gaz. Ex., 24 August, 1765. Lloyd's Conduct, 90, 91. That little turbulent colony, reported Gage, Gage to Lee, Sept. 1765. raised their mob likewise. And on the twenty-eighth day of August, after destroying the house and furniture of one Howard, who had written, and of one Moffat, who had spoken in favor of the power of parliament to tax America, they gathered round the house of their stamp officer, and, after a parley, compelled him to resign. At New-York, the Lieutenant-Governor expressed a wish to the General for a

He added, I desire you would tell Lord Strange, that I am now, and have been heretofore, for modification. King to Rockingham in Albemarble, i. 302. So Rockingham was disavowed, and the opposition declared more than ever that the ministers counterfeited as well as prostituted the sentiments of the king, whose unwritten word they would not trust, Lloyd's Conduct, &c., 134. and whose written word convicted them of falsehood. On the same day, Bedford and Grenville went to an interview with Bute, whom they had so hated and chap. XXIII.} 1766. Feb. wronged.
