     Samuel Paine was born in Worcester, Massachusetts. He was the son of Timothy Paine and Sarah Chandler. Samuel Paine graduated in 1771 from Harvard. The Worcester County Convention, September 7, 1774, " Voted, To take notice of Mr. Samuel Paine, assistant clerk, for sending out venires. Voted, That Mr. Samuel Dennison go to Mr. Samuel Paine forthwith, and desire his immediate attendance before this body, to answer for sending venires to the constables, commanding their compliance with the late Act of Parliament." Mr. Paine appeared and stated that he felt bound by the duty of his office to comply with the Act. "Voted, That Mr. Paine has not given satisfaction, and that he be allowed to consider till the adjournment of this meeting." On the 21st of September, he transmitted a paper to the Convention, explanatory of his course, but that body " Voted, That it ' was not satisfactory, and that it be committed to Messrs. Joseph Henshaw, Mr. Bigelow, and Mr. Doolittle," who reported, that, as the writer was " a young man," &c, &c, his "letter be dismissed," and Mr. Paine himself " be treated with all neglect."
In 1775 our Loyalist was sent by the Committee of Worcester, under guard, " to Watertown or Cambridge, to be dealt with as the honorable Congress or Commander-in-Chief shall, upon examination, think proper." His direct offences consisted, apparently, in saying that the Hampshire troops had robbed the house of Mr. Bradish ; that he had heard the Whig soldiers were deserting in great numbers ; and that he was told " the men were so close stowed in the Colleges that they were lousy." This is the substance of the testimony of a neighbor, the only witness who appeared against him, and who had a conversation with him (in the garden of the witness) immediately after he had been on a visit to Cambridge, where the Whig Army was then encamped. In 1776 Mr. Paine accompanied the British Army from Boston to Halifax. During the war, he wandered from place to place, and apparently without regular employment. He returned to Massachusetts.

After some delay he wrote and signed his resignation. The committee insisted further that he should personally appear before the people; this he did. It was then insisted that he should read the paper himself, and with his hat off. He hesitated, anddemanded the protection of the committee, but finally complied, and was allowed to retire to his dwelling unharmed. The object of the multitude having been accomplished, they withdrew in companies, those of each town marching off in a separate body.
