At the time judge Smith presided ovr court in the town of poughkeepsie. He had sent some British troops down to town of patterson to quash a settlers revolt. They arrested two of the leaders and brought them to poughkeepsie for trial. The locals got a little miffed and tard and feathers him and sent him packing back to the capital of Massachusetts.
