Answer:
Colonists were divided over the issue of independence.
Explanation:
That "Colonists were divided over the issue of independence" is the life this passage demonstrates in the Georgia colony in 1775.
The Sons of Liberty (members of the local committee) who wanted to enforce continental association against trade with Britain was vehemently opposed by Brown. This led to the attack carried out by the Liberty Boys on Brown. They were seeking to be free from the British trade. But Brown as a loyalist wasn't in agreement.
So, the division was as a result of independence.
