This shows that the colonies unified to support Boston in its protest against England.

Patricia Brooks: I think that this document shows that not all of the colonies are united.... the ones listed seem to have send a good bit to Boston, but where are the other colonies? Did they not give anything, or are they just not listed?

This after the Boston Tea Party, when Britain had closed the Boston ports...in an attempt to punish Mass...so Mass. was in trouble (no import/export) But all of the colonies **united** and helped support Boston. - Monica

Kristen Giles:This is a list of what different cities of colonies gave to Boston. This was a reaction to the Boston Port Act and other acts passed by British Parliament in response to "Boston Tea Party" in 1773. This shows a step of colonial unity.

Dymonde: Pretty much what the cities of the colonies gave to the relief of Boston Question what were they going to do with sheep?

eat the sheep maybe... can't this be unity and disunity?

Tasmia: This was prob after the Stamp acts and townshend acts when boston was in trouble and didnt have a lot of money so they needed donations. i think it shows disunity b/c only 5 of the 13 colonies helped.
