nov 26, 1765 - Rebels Sacked the Boston Mansion of Thomas Hutchinson
Description:
Thomas Hutchinson, the lieutenant governor of Massachusetts, had one of the finest homes in Boston
On that night violence boiled over in response to the British plans to impose the Stamp Act on the colonies. The tax would have applied to all official papers in the colonies. Hutchinson, though, wasn’t necessarily the right person to protest.
