Which battle resulted in both a confederate victory and the death of general stonewall jackson?
the second battle of bull run
the battle of antietam
the battle of chancellorsville
the first battle of bull run

The correct answer is: "the Battle of Chancellorsville ".

Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson (1824 – 1863) was a Confederate general during the American Civil War. He had a significant role in all armed confrontations that occurred in the Eastern Theater of the war, until he was severely wounded in the Battle of Chancellorsville, and this caused his death.

During the Battle of Chancellorsville, he was shot by a Confederate military unit by accident. He survived at first and just lost a leg, but he ended up dying of pneumonia 8 days later.

1. the townshend acts of 1767 “threaten the country with poverty and ruin.”

at a town meeting held at faneuil hall in boston on october 28, 1767, boston freeholders and residents discussed the implications of the brutal townshend acts levied against the colonists. the townshend acts were a set of four acts passed by the british parliament in the summer of 1767 in order to generate revenue for the crown (through duties on goods such as lead, glass, paper, and tea) as well as exert british control over the increasingly rebellious colonists.

during the oct. 28 meeting, the bostonians found:

the excessive use of foreign superfluities is the chief cause of the present distressed state of this town, as it is thereby drained of its money: which misfortune is likely to be increased by means of the late additional burthens and impositions on the trade of the province, which threaten the country with poverty and ruin.

as a result, the citizens unanimously voted to boycott all british-made goods.
