Thompson and my parents and friends will suffer on my account; and though I foresee and realize the distress, poverty, and wretch- edness that must unavoidably attend my pilgrimage in 37 unknown lands, destitute of fortune, friends, and acquaint- ances, yet all these evils appear to me more tolerable than the treatment which I meet with from the hands of mine ungrateful countrymen." "I must also beg a continuance of your prayers for me, that my present afflictions may have a suitable impression... on my mind, and that in due time I may be extricated out of all my troubles. That this may be the case, that the happy time may soon come when I may return to my family in peace and safety, and when every individual in America may sit down under his own vine, and under his own fig- tree, and have none to make him afraid, is the constant and devout wish of Your dutiful and affectionate son Benj» Thompson." His talents were lost to America at a time when they were most needed. His genius for organization was driven to a foreign soil when it should have been devoted to the es- tablishment of a new government in the land of his birth; and all this because a few of his friends and relatives in Concord did not have the courage to stand with him, face his jealous accusers, and declare his innocence in accordance with their belief.
