Question

Colonist B is a wealthy woman from New York City. Her husband's business earns tremendous

wealth and honor for the family. She frequently claims to be related to several members of the
House of Lords in the British Parliament. She worries about the amount of violence being
committed by mobs of men called the Sons of Liberty. She and her husband fear that their wealth
and their connections to Britain may cause them to be targets of the mob.
Circle:
Patriot
Loyalist
Neutral
Reason for decision:

Answer 1

Correct answer is Loyalist .

Step-by-step explanation:

I choose Loyalist because this were the colonists who supported the British government and believed that there should be no revolution. They wanted to preserve their status and political arrangements that were already made in the colonies. Sons of Liberty opposed the British government and they were connected to Patriots. There weren't actually that many neutral people in that period.
