George Washington's slave - Henry?
Neutralists treated as Loyalists
Tory vs. Loyalist
Violence against Loyalists and the stifling effect on numbers
Black loyalists in Virginia served in the military, but in New York were treated as slave labor
British government saw freedom as a sufficient prize to slaves and offered no monetary reward for service rendered during the war
Occasional executions, tortures, tarring and feathering, family harassment, destruction of private property, etc
