In April 1768, an opinion writer known only as “A Farmer in Pennsylvania” finished the last letter in a series decrying the Townshend Acts and making the case for colonial Americans’ natural rights. His thoughts would be echoed further in A Summary View of the Rights of British America, the Declaration of Independence, and The Federalist Papers, among other Founding documents.
