Robert Treat Paine was a prosecutor of this event, for which just two men were convicted; other perpetrators, including Thomas Preston, were acquitted by Josiah Quincey and John Adams. One engraving of this event depicted neither thrown snowballs or African-American victim Crispus Attucks; that Paul Revere work incorrectly showed the aggressors in a line. For 10 points, name this 1770 incident in which British troops fired on a mob in a Massachusetts city.
