Thomas Hutchins (1711-1780)

You believe that the British Parliament has a right to impose laws on the colonies whether or not you personally like them. Your support of the Royal Government earns you the position of Royal
Governor at a politically charged time. Your political opinions make you very unpopular and a
mob ransacks your home. Though you love your hometown of Boston, you are forced to leave. You
end your life and career in England as an advisor to
King George III. You encourage him to treat the colonies kindly.
