Back to Patrick Henry

Core Belief

"Dunmore believes in the absolute authority of the British crown and Parliament over the colonies, and the necessity of maintaining order and obedience through force if necessary."

Worldview

Dunmore views the world through a lens of imperial power and colonial hierarchy, seeing the colonies as subordinate to the mother country and their inhabitants as subjects of the British crown.

Personality

Dunmore is depicted as a haughty and authoritarian figure, deeply loyal to the British crown and dismissive of colonial concerns. He is willing to use force and intimidation to maintain order and suppress dissent.

In Their Own Words

"(Paraphrased) That the gentleman has spoken treason."
"(Proclamation) I have thought proper... to issue this my proclamation, strictly charging all persons... not to aid, abet, or give countenance to the said Patrick Henry."
