This Massachusetts group of women were called the
Daughters of Liberty and they are known for putting matters into their own hands.
During the “Coffee Party” their attention was diverted to a local merchant who
hoarded coffee and refused to sell it to the people, the women decided to put
matters into their hands by forming an assembly of women with carts and trucks,
they walked to the warehouse and insist to get the key from the merchant, one
of the women attacked him which forced the merchant to give up the warehouse key. The women opened
the warehouse and took all the coffee.
