you have to do is to try it on the

tells a lie, especially If he Is under
oath, there is an emotional reaction,
affecting the breathing and the blood

Now, as to the many things that may be read
between the lines of what Hancock and Frank
lin said, here's just a hint: Hancock was a rich
merchant, It was part of the purpose of the
British troops at Lexington and Concord to cap-
ture Hancock. At that time Hancock was re.
spondent in the Admiralty court in suits of the
crown to recover nearly half a million dollars as
penalties alleged to have been Incurred for viola:

Hancock should sign hig name large and plain

him from financial ruin and give him free com:

Benjamin Franklin, publisher, printer, philos-
opher and statesman, sevenly-one years of age,

jest, but no man there knew better that there is
many a true word spoken in jest,
So the truth ig that on our side of the ocean

The most casual glance at this skeleton chro
nology shows it to be literally loaded to the musz-
zle with the eighteenth century equivalent of pe-
litical and economic TNT. The American Revo
lution was inevitable, sooner or later. The mar-
vel Ig not that it eame, but that out of the condi.
tions grew a nation.
What a chaos It was! The title to the colonies
was not in the people of England or in the state,
but in the crown. The crown could make and re-
peal laws; could appoint rulers and remove them.
The colonists were not citizens of the realm. but
subjects of the crown, having only such rights as
granted them in their charters. The crown
claimed and exercised the right to amend or revoke
these charters, Such rights and no more did the
American colonists have, according to the view of
the party in England which stood for legal and
constitutional prerogatives of the crown. These
claims of the crown were resisted by every col
ony as incompatible with its essential rights and
by the anti-prerogative party In England,
Of the thirteen colonles seven were royal eol-
onles, three charter and three proprietary col.
onles. Each colony wag related to the others only
through the crown. All the conditions tended
rather to Intercolonial hate than love. Find the
causes that drove the colonies together and there
are the causes of the Revolution,
George III was a stickler for the kiag's pre
rogatives, One of his first acts In relation to the
colonies was to revive the navigation and trade
laws which had been only nominally enforced for
a century. As a matter of fact all the colonies
were technically smugglers, in that their evasion
of these laws gave them practically free trade.

This cumulation of activities on the part of the
crown seems to have convinced the colonies that
their only salvation lay in getting together for
united action. So the First Continental Congress
met. This congress was merely deliberative and
advisory: It issued a declaration of rights; it
importation agreement; it forwarded a petition
to the king and set out an address to the
onles: it provided for another congress to meet
in 1775. Still there was no open discussion of
independence.
