This seemed to have the desired effect, and submitting to their authority in 1658, he behaved himself for a few years until the Restoration, when the Gorges party once more came to the front in Maine. Then he unloosed his bonds again, and de- fied his late political masters in an insulting letter to the Massachu- setts magistrates. In 1668 the tables were again turned, and although Bonython remained recalcitrant, he found, after three more years of ineffectual opposition, that submission was th...e wisest course, and he wrote the magistrates a letter asking them to pardon his past offences, alleging that he " was blinded by a letter from Mr. Gorge. " [Mass. Arch, xlviii. 108. ] His offences were not always of a political nature, for he quarrelled with his brother in law, Richard Foxwell, in 1654, and tore down his house, for which he had to pay roundly when the court reviewed the case. In 1640 he was sued for libel by Rev. Richard Gibson (who had married Mary Lewis, the daughter of his father's partner), in that he had called him " a base priest, a base knave and a base fellow, " besides slandering his wife.
