The Mechanics?

In the fifth episode of DIC's Liberty's Kids, called "Midnight Ride", Ben Franklin's fictional helper Moses says the following: "The Mechanics are a secret group of patriots concerned about how Britain is treating the colonies. [The Sons of Liberty] is another group. Its membership is reserved for men of commerce. We craftsmen having no group of our own decided to form one. We call ourselves 'Mechanics'."

Likewise, history.com has an article about Paul Revere where under point 4 it says: "According to the Central Intelligence Agency, Paul Revere founded the first patriot intelligence network on record, a Boston-based group known as the "mechanics". Prior to the American Revolution he had been a member of the Sons of Liberty, a political organization that opposed incendiary tax legislation such as the Stamp Act of 1765 and organized demonstrations against the British. Beginning in 1774, the mechanics, also referred to as the Liberty Boys, spied on British soldiers and met regularly (in the legendary Green Dragon Tavern) to share information."

Did this secret organization exist? There doesn't seem to exist a lot of information. If they did I would like to think they merit mention, if not a page. 190.100.175.35 (talk) 07:37, 4 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
