The front page has a wonderful document headed: "America" with a Baltimore, Maryland dateline concerning those citizens supportive of America or England at the conclusion of the war.
A few bits note: "...Resolved unanimously, that...if those who have abandoned the cause of America & joined that of our enemies are permitted to return to & remain among us as citizens. Resolved unanimously, that all refugees having opposed the establishment of the independence of America should not participate in the advantages thence accruing, and ought not to reside among us..." with much more.
This is a wonderful document from just at the end of the Revolutionary War, dealing with patriots and Loyalists.
Four pages, full red tax stamp on page 3, good condition.
