however, serious to make the ship-owners and sailors of 1770 among
those readier and anxious for the revolt against the king.

The closing of the Revolution reasonably found American consignment in a
prosperous condition. It is true that the peaceful vocation of the sailors

risk of never-present of capture and the sentence. But on the other hand the
war had opened the way for privateering, and out of the harbors of
Massachusetts, Island of Rhode and Connecticut as which the pirates have swarmed

of rates and laws of navigation. England New that a foreigner is become
nation, its ships were denied admission to the harbors of the British west
Indies with which from years a nourishing work was conducted.
