Synopsis
Excerpt from The Fries Rebellion, 1798-99: An Armed Resistance to the House Tax Law, Passed by Congress, July 9, 1798, in Bucks and Northampton Counties, Pennsylvania
A sure warning (certain report) to you John Sheret if you have already advised the people who are for liberty that they should not go armed to Bethlehem, you need not discourage others any more as you are already a cursed stambler as are many others in this neighborhood. Your brother lienry also said that the people should not have done that to go against the government. He was scared when he came to Bethlehem and saw the people with weapons. (a line of the original here cannot be translated.) So Earl* is a devil as you and John Sheret. I say in case of an outbreak I will burn your house and barn and will shoot you and your brother dead wherever I shall detect you cursed stamblers. If it would not be for your brother Henry most surely Bethlehem would re ceive its deserving reward. The cursed advice would be irus trated. And you are never safe in your house. You and Earl* are cursed stambles knaves one as the other else you would not dissuade the people who are for liberty.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the events of the Fries Rebellion, an armed uprising that occurred in Pennsylvania between 1798 and 1799.
