Sir John was a man of less ability', but the Tories of the valley, who were rich and powerful, looked up to him as their natural leader. Such was the position of affairs in July, 1774. The month previous the Boston Port Bill went into operation. The friends of liberty in New York City had suggested a Continen- tal Congress. Already the storm of approaching war was visible around the whole horizon. Men less brave than the 8( ttlers of Tryon County might well have hesitated as they looked into th...e future. At Johnstown, barring their com- munication witti the eastern portion of the province, lay Sir Jithn and Colonel Guy Johnson, with five hundred Eoman Catholic Scotch Hig;hlanders, Tories to the core ; all along their northern frontier stretched Canada, whose loyalty to England was never doubted. Water communication on the east and on the west laid them open to the incursions of the foe, while in their midst dwelt an enemy of equal numbers with their own, whose weapons of war were the torch, the tomahawk and scalping knife.
