The British have won the war against the French,
but they find their vast North American empire
difficult to manage. Many Indians, tired of
British broken promises and disrespect, join
together and launch attacks on Britains frontier
forts. In an attempt to stop the conflict with
Indians, King George issues the Proclamation of
1763, declaring that all lands west of the
Allegheny Mountains belong to the Indians. The
Colonists are upset with the Proclamation. Some
Colonists take matters into their own hands and
begin a campaign of anti-Indian violence. The
financial pressure on the colonists mounts as a
series of taxes is levied by the British Crown to
pay for the war. These taxes are on sugar,
paper, tea, and later all imports. The Colonists
are angered by these new taxes.
15
Notes Taxation without Representation 11
Protecting the Colonists After the Proclamation
of 1763, the British were forced to
continue protecting the colonists from the
Indians. More than 5,000 (of the 10,000) British
Troops were sent into the New England Colonies
after the war ended. Colonists felt threatened
by the military presence. This would later lead
to conflicts between New England Colonists and
the British Army.

Quartering Act During the war the practice of
quartering began. Quartering is when civilians
are forced to house and feed military officers
and soldiers. The actual law was passed in 1765
after reminiscence began against taxes.

Quartering Act During the war the practice of
quartering began. Quartering is when civilians
are forced to house and feed military officers
and soldiers. The actual law was passed in 1765
after reminiscence began against taxes. Act of
1765 if its soldiers outnumbered the housing
available, would quarter them in inns, livery
stables, ale houses, and the houses of sellers of
wine, houses of persons selling of rum, brandy,
strong water if numbers required in
uninhabited houses, barns, or other buildings,
requiring any inhabitants (or in their absence,
public officials) to provide them with food and
alcohol, and providing for fire, candles,
vinegar, salt, bedding, and utensils for the
soldiers without paying any thing for the same.
This act was repealed in 1770, but later
replaced with additional quartering laws

Taxation without Representation The Navigation
Acts forced colonists to buy British goods.
These goods were often taxed by the British
government. The taxes on the colonists were
usually very unsuccessful. Usually colonists
would just smuggle (illegally ship) goods into
the colonies without paying taxes. In order to
motivate Colonists to stop smuggling goods the
British government lowered the tax on imported
goods such as Sugar Tax (a tax on sugar and
molasses).

Enforcing the Sugar Act Writs of Assistance were
general warrants that allowed British military
and customs officers to search wherever they
wanted. During the Sugar Act these warrants (or
writs) allowed them to search anywhere to find
smugglers. Special Courts were developed by the
British outside the Colonial courts to put
suspected smugglers on trial. These courts were
also used for people who were evading taxes.
Colonists were upset with this system. There was
no jury trial in these courts, and you were
presumed guilty until proven innocent.

Complaint about the Tax In Massachusetts the
protest against the tax had its loudest critics.
John Adams and James Otis were two of those
critics. Each were attorneys in Boston. James
Otis said about the tax no parts of
(Englands colonies) can be taxed without their
consent. (they have) a right to be
represented. (Taxation without
Representation) In 1769, Otis was beaten by a
British Officer while protesting. He was
mentally damaged from the clubbing
thereafter.
