PENNSYLVANIA EVENING POST, Philadelphia, Oct., 10, 1775
* Bunker Hill
* Lexington & Concord
A page 2 report from Cambridge begins: "The miserable tools of tyranny in Boston appear to be now somewhat conscious of their infamy in burning Charlestown...one of them in Mrs. Draper's paper asserts that the Provincials, on the 17th of June, after firing out of the houses upon the kings troops, set fire to the buildings. This doubtless is as true as that the Provincials fired first upon the kings troops at Lexington".
Remember that June 17 was the Battle of Bunker Hill, this report gives reference to it and Lexington & Concord in the same paragraph.
Pg. 3 has several items on the war, including a few items from Gen. Schuyler datelined from Ticonderoga. Very tiny hole on front leaf, top corner of the sine is missing causing no text loss, otherwise in nice condition.
