George Burrington, colonial governor of North Carolina, was appointed governor in January 15, 1724, because of his father's support of George I and the British government. Burrington was perhaps not the best choice to lead the colony, and was replaced by Sir Richard Everard not too long after on April 7, 1725. Burrington was so angry at being removed, that he badgered Everard with disorderly conduct, calling him "a noodle and an ape," knocking loudly on his door, declaring him unfit to be governor. Oddly enough, when Everard left office in 1730, Burrington was restored as governor. While his behavior had still not improved and complaints were made about him, Burrington left the colony in April 1734 under the pretense of a visit to South Carolina, but made his way to England to answer the charges. He "engaged in drunken frolic" and was found murdered in St. James' Park.

What are two reasons American colonists were unhappy with British rule?
American colonists were unhappy with British rule primarily due to taxation without representation and restrictions on their economic activities. The imposition of taxes, such as the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts, angered colonists who believed they should not be taxed by a Parliament in which they had no representatives. Additionally, British trade regulations limited colonial trade with other nations, stifling economic growth and fostering resentment towards British control.
