The year was 1769 and the times were troubled. Boston rang with complaints against King George III: his soldiers were arrogant; taxes were too high; a man could not conduct his business without interference from the king's ministers- so people said.
John Treegate did not agree. Solid citizen of Boston, he had fought for king and country in the Battle of Quebec. He was loyal to his British king
and he had taught his son Peter to be loyal ,too.
How was it then that only a few years later, in 1775, he said to Peter:
"Boy, have you a gun?
"Yes," said Peter.
John and Peter Treegate, father and son, were armed for the battle against the British which was to go down in history as the Battle of Bunker Hill.
