destroyed private property when they threw the tea Into their harbor to show the government their spirit of New Englanders Suspicious There had been more than a touch of violence more than a little turbulence and a vast deal of radical and talk in all that they had revolutionary done and the colonies were full yet of men who had no tolerance for anywere it never thing that transgressed so little the moderate limits of constitutional agitation “There is an opinion which doeB in some degree obtain in the other colonies that the Massachusetts gentlemen and especially of the town of Boston do affect to dictate and take in lead continental the measured that we are apt from an inward vanity and to assume big and haughty airs” said Joseph Hawley who for all he had grown old as a Massachusetts quiet lawyer among his had kept his shrewd eyes neighbors abroad "It is highly probable” he told John Adams with a wholesome bluntness "that you will meet from several of the other colonies fully equal to yourselves or any of you in their knowledge of Great Britain the colonies law history government commerce By what we from time to time see In the public and what our assembly and papers have received from the committees assemblies and committees of the more southern colonies we must be satisfied that they have men of as much sense and literature as any we can or ever could boast of" Advised to Be Prudent It was mere Counsel of prudence that they should play their part in the congress with modesty and discretion Not Cushing and Paine but the Adamses carried the strength of the

partisans had fitted him out — the of the revolution very impersonation men were beginning so to fear No man had ever daunted him neither could any corrupt him Ha to wonder of these them phia southern colonies besides had in sympathy with the life empire than had their northern neighbors Their life had depended directly upon that of England hitherto and had partaken of it with a constant zest They had no rival trade they had wanted no rival government The general air of the wide empire had blown in all ordinary seaeoni through their affairs and they had cultivated none of that shrewd antagonism toward the home government which had so sharpened the wits and narrowed the political Interests of the best men In New England Reasons for Virginia’s Primacy They had read law because they were men of business without caring too much about its niceties or meaning to practice it in litigation They had read their English history without feeling that they were separate from Their passion it for

forcible man though he was did not figure as a leader among the Virginian delegates Peyton Randolph was elected president of congress Richard Henry Lee and Patrick Henry stood forth as the Virginia leaders on the floor "If you speak of solid information and sound Judgment Colonel Washington is unquestionably the greatest man on that floor” was Henry’s confident and generous verdict but Washington was no politician and did not stand in exactly the same class with the rest He had headed committees and presided over popular meetings among his own neighbors in Fairfax and had been prompt to join them In speaking with high spirit against the course of the ministry in England He had been forward In urging and punctiliously careful In practicing He had declared lo Gage’s conduct
