In 1683, Edward Gove led an ill-starred insurrection against the unpopular New Hampshire Governor Cranfield. He was arrested, tried, and convicted of high treason, his extensive land holdings were all confiscated, and he was shipped to the Tower of London to be hung, drawn, and quartered. In 1685, after the accession of James II, he was pardoned, his property restored, and he returned home to Hampton where he died in 1691.[6]
