Explanation:

On the evening of 5 March 1770, a confrontation between British soldiers and a boisterous crowd in front of the Custom House on King Street in Boston, Massachusetts had deadly results and the event quickly became known as the "Boston Massacre." In its aftermath, the commander of the 29th Regiment, Captain Thomas Preston, as well as the eight soldiers involved, were thrown in jail, while the five men who lost their lives became martyrs for the Patriot cause. In the days immediately following the event, the acting colonial governor, Thomas Hutchinson, struggled to maintain order, eventually electing to relocate the British troops, previously quartered in Boston, to Castle William (now Castle Island), a fortified island in Boston Harbor.
