EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic broadside document from the Provincial Congress in New York, dated 13 June 1776. The image captures an important moment in American history during the late stages of the Revolutionary War. The text on the broadside orders the local militia to prepare for an imminent English invasion of the colony, highlighting the tense atmosphere and impending danger faced by early American settlers.
