Answer:

In the novel "The Witch of Blackbird Pond" by Elizabeth George Speare, in chapters 13-15, several townsmen gather at the Wood household until late at night because they suspect that Kit's grandfather, Matthew Wood, is hiding royalist sympathies. The men search through Matthew's belongings and find books and pamphlets that are considered to be treasonous, including a pamphlet by William Penn. They also find a prayer book that Matthew had brought with him from England. The men take the items and leave, warning the Woods to be careful about their political leanings. This event foreshadows the tension and conflict that will arise later in the novel between the royalists and the patriots.
