Storyboard Text
- I got it! We're issuing a new quartering act! The colonists will be forced to share their homes with British soldiers should the need arrive
- Haven't we tried that before?
- 10 years earlier . . . (1765)
- What if we created some type of law that the colonist have to provide barracks for our soldiers... it'll save us some money. . . yeah that's good someone write that down
- yeah but this time we'll enforce it
- We really can't refuse?
- I just cleaned
- Such a nice place you have here. Mind if we stay a while?
- I don't want these strangers in my home
- Pretty sure that infringes on our rights
- I'm with you guys
- Yeah. . . that's not happening
- Each colony (except Georgia) sent representatives to decide how to respond to the British
- First Continental Congregation
- I'm sure you're wondering why I called all 56 of us here
