ON THE NIGHT OF DECEMBER 16, 1773, MEN IN BOSTON WENT EVEN FURTHER. THEY BELONGED TO A GROUP CALLED THE SONS OF LIBERTY. DRESSED AS MOHAWK INDIANS, THEY SNEAKED ONTO THREE SHIPS AND DUMPED 342 CHESTS OF TEA INTO THE HARBOR.

THE EVENT BECAME KNOWN AS THE BOSTON TEA PARTY. KING GEORGE III WAS FURIOUS! HE THOUGHT THE COLONISTS SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE TEA-AND THAT THEY HAD TO BE PUNISHED!
