The correct answer is A) To keep in touch with similar committees in other colonies.
The purpose of the Committees of Correspondence was to keep in touch with similar committees in other colonies.
Boston was the first one to have a Committee of Correspondence, in 1764. In 1765, New York had its committee. It was until 1773 that the Virginia House of Burgesses proposed every colony should have one to keep the colonies informed. They served as a communication channel to make decisions under the incremental problems the colonies had with the British monarchy.
In writing this headline I would suggest focusing on the perspective of each party based upon their political views. A colonial patriot would support this action and applaud the revolutionary method of protest. However, a loyalist would consider this act treasonous and would not support it.
