I can't really see the answers you've provided if you did but, i wrote an essay kind of thing on captain thomas preston's account of the boston massacre here are some parts of it.

the source was created on 1770, considered a primary source, it was written because he wanted to prove his innocence to the jurors. the author's purpose was so because the daughters of the revolution wanted to re-open the case. according to his source the soldiers started the boston massacre they started to fire without order, and that the mob yelled fire, meaning an actual fire.

plus from what I've written, i personally believe the colonists started the boston massacre because, as stated by Captain Thomas a First-hand account, they started taunting them and throwing snowballs along with other objects because they did not want the British regulars in their town. The commending officer ordered his men to fix their bayonets and join the guard outside the building which they were having a meeting in, after the colonists attacked the soldiers one rifle shot into the crowd to the other soldiers began firing moments later. Five colonists were dead three more were injured while the british soldiers were put on trail only two were found guilty of man slaughter and their thumbs were branded with an ‘M’ for murder as punishment. I believe this could have been prevented if the soldiers were not outside fixing their guns at that time. And had the British parliament had not taken over american taxation measures in boston, the british should’ve stayed over in britian.

What are some pros and cons of being a merchant in the middle ages?

qaws [65]

The pros were that you were being protected by the guild in case of something bad happening you like getting hurt or similar. They would help you and your family for example. The cons were that you wouldn't be able to dictate the price of your wares which was done to prevent exploitation of consumers, so even if you were in a position to establish a personal monopoly, you couldn't and you couldn't become richer than what is the adequate wealth for a merchant.
