Hey, what got sent to Boston to quell the tax revolt and confiscate John Hancock's ship?

What a beepin' irony that is.

She became caught up in the tensions leading up to the outbreak of the American Revolution when she was sent to support the Boston commissioners enforcing the Townshend Acts in 1768. Her actions involved impressing local sailors, confiscating a vessel belonging to John Hancock and providing a refuge for the unpopular commissioners when rioting broke out.
