September 07, 1775
THE PENNSYLVANIA EVENING POST, Philadelphia, September 7, 1775

* Edmund Burke Speech
* Revolutionary War original


The entire front page is a continuation of: "The Speech of Edmund Burke on Moving his Resolutions for Conciliation with the Colonies" which also takes all of page 2 and a bit of page 3 as well.
Page 3 has a very nice report from Williamsburg concerning an ordinance for: "...raising and embodying a sufficient force for the defense & protection of this colony." which includes the pay & many other details (see photos).

The back page has reports from the "Committee Chamber" which includes a resolve of the Continental Congress (see photos).

Issue is complete in 4 pages measuring about 8 by 10 inches, some browning mainly near the margins but otherwise very nice. Great to have a Philadelphia newspaper from the Revolutionary War.
