Francis Rotch was the co owner of the Dartmouth (a ship containing items from the east India trade company). He was to plea with Governor Hutchison to allow him the okay to let the ship’s go back out and not get stopped. They were very close and if it weren’t this bad of circumstances they would probably having a good time enjoying each other’s company. Defeated Rotch returned back to Boston where Samuel Adams said that they had done all they could. Later that night the Boston Tea Party occurred. Men were dressed as warriors went to the dock and dumped all the tea contents into the water while people watched thinking they were crazy. A lot of pounds worth of tea was destroyed and wasted that night and because of its value was deeply punished. This was one of the protests that fueled the Americans with the power and confidence to start the American Revolution.
