A barrister who was expelled from his chambers after tweeting about a ‘stroppy teenager of colour’ says he is now under investigation by the Bar Standards Board.

BRATTLEBORO — Brattleboro’s first meeting house was located off present day Orchard Street and was built around 1768. The area is now known as Meeting House Hill. There is a cemetery there and a marker establishing where the first meeting house was built. While Meeting House Hill was the geographic center of Brattleboro, it did not turn out to be a convenient location to establish the main meeting house for the town.
In March 1781, a town meeting was held at the meeting house and Brattleboro citizens voted to join the newly formed Vermont Republic. Vermont had written a constitution and declared its independence in 1777 but Brattleboro was one of the southeastern towns that initially remained loyal to New York. ....
