Excerpt from The Beginnings of the American Revolution, Vol. 2: Based on Contemporary Letters, Diaries and Other Documents Ach week the line became more marked between the Tories and those whose sympathies lay with the country in its struggles, which now tended more and more openly and inevitably toward independence. The in fluence of the Committee of Correspondence in giving form to the Solemn League and Covenant drew attention to its power, and a town meeting was held on June 27th in Boston, which continued all that day and a part of the next, while the Tory merchants made one last rally against the Committee, urging its dismissal. Rowe1 notes the de bates as very warm on both sides. The Committee were opposed by Messrs. Treasurer Gray, Thomas Gray, Saml. Barrat, Edw. Paine, Francis Greene, John Amory, Saml. Eliot, and Ezek. Goldthwait; and upheld by Saml. Adams, Josiah Quincy, Drs. Warren and Young, Benj. Kent, and Wm. Molineaux.
