Oliver to the civil department, and is now Governor of Boston only, he having jurisdiction over no other town in the province. of the Province, and President of a Council appointed by the King in a manner particularly obnoxious to popular resentment. On the morning of 2 Sept. 1774, a large number of Middlesex freeholders (Gov. Oliver says about four thousand), assembled at Cambridge, and induced the recently appointed Mandamus Councillors to renounce their offices. The President of the Council was not spared; but, though he urgently requested delay, inasmuch as he could not with propriety renounce that office, while he held that of Lieut.-gov., yet he finally yielded, and signed a solemn engagement as a man of honor and a Christian, that he would never hereafter, upon any terms whatsoever, acc

David the f. grad. H. C. 1741, was a Colonel, Representative 1753, and High Sheriff of Middlesex 1764-1774. He inherited the homestead, and resided there until the Revolution, when he adhered to the King and went with his family to England, where he d. 7 July 1811. His estate here was confiscated; but the loss was repaired by benefits which the British Government bestowed on him and on his children. Picke, John, by w. Mary, had Abigail, b. 22 Ap. 1642. See Pickering. Pickering, John, by w. Mary, had Lydia, b. 5 Nov. 1638. I suspect this John Pickering and the foregoing John

Apparently, however, he derived not much pecuniary advantage from his honorable offices, for he d. insolvent in 1746; his w. Susanna survived. 10. Benjamin, S. of John (4), m.
