Theophilus Lillie (1730-1776)

Since your business depends on British imports, you do not wish to join Patriot boycotts of British goods. Facing threats, you publish an eloquent editorial accusing the Patriots of infringing on the liberties they claim to protect. When an angry crowd shows up outside your shop, your neighbor tries to break it up. In the scuffle a boy is killed. You later serve in a Loyalist militia and are forced to flee Boston. You
later die of disease in Nova Scotia.
