In Weare New Hampshire on April 14 1772 a group of woodsmen attacked Sheriff Benjamin Whiting and deputy during a raid on king s law enforcement. The incident followed illegal timber cutting of royal white pines. Rioters hid the bail money and forced the deputies to flee. By September seven rioters faced fines. The episode foreshadowed Lexington and broader resistance to British rule in New Hampshire and beyond.
