It was this terror, whether well or ill grounded, which rendered the repeal of the stamp act, among the merchants at least, a popular measure.

正是这种恐慌，无论是有根据还是无根据，使印花税法的废除成为一种流行的措施，至少在商人中是这样。

Even after the stamp act was repealed the movement remained as a network for those who wanted to end British control over the colonies. Leading members of the sons of Liberty went on to further premeditated offenses against Britain.

即便在《印花税法》被推翻之后这场运动对于那些想要彻底结束英国在殖民地统治的人群来说依旧是他们诉诸的形式，自由之子的主要领导成员甚至还进一步策划过向英国挑起战争。
