Tea Act, 1773 Britain passed the Tea Act of 1773. It lowered the price of the tea, added a very small tax on it. But you could only buy from the British East India Co. & no one else. So, colonists would not allow ships to unload the tea. They had to go back to Britain; except in Boston.
Boston Tea Party On Dec. 16, 1773, about 50 Sons of Liberty, led by Sam Adams, dressed as Mohawk Indians. They got onto the 3 ships in Boston Harbor and dumped 342 chests, 90,000 lbs., of tea into the water. ($700,000) Everybody cheered!
The Intolerable Acts, 1774 To punish Boston, King George III passed the Coercive Acts. 1. closed Boston Harbor until all tea was paid for. 2. could have no meetings without permission. 3. Boston Massacre soldiers were to be tried in England. 4. more troops were sent to the colonies to live in the colonists homes.
