Daniel West, a son of a doctor in Salem, Massachusetts in era of American Revolution (1770s). Daniel, who you would often see with Beckett, Peter Ray, Jeremy, and few others. Daniel, himself is a Loyalist (or Tory) or at least he thought he was. His father, who often away being in Boston, which everyone often would say that Mr. West is ignoring his own practice as a doctor. And I have one major question related to this; Since that Daniel West had to make very important decision of his lifetime, like is Daniel West a truly a Loyalist or a Patriot (Whigs)? Read on and find it out! - Happy Reading!
