It was aimed at punishing Boston and forcing it out of resistance. Almost all positions in the colonial government were to be appointment by the governor or directly by the King. Activities of town meetings were limited. Massachusetts was very proud of its independence and was angry at this infringement on its rights.Administration of Justice Act: The third measure provided that British officials accused of committing crimes in a colony might be taken to England for trial.
