Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Memoir of George Chambers: Of Chambersburg, Late Vice-President of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania
That we are now in the most imminent danger by a powerful army of cruel, merciless, and inhuman enemies, by whom our lives, liberties, and estates, and all that tends to promote our wel fare, are in the utmost danger of dreadful destruction, and this lamentable truth is most evident from the late defeat of the Vir ginia forces; and now, as we are under your Honor's protection, we would beg your immediate notice, we living upon the fron tiers of the Province, and our enemies so close upon us, nothing doubting but that these considerations, will affect your Honor; and as you have our welfare at heart, that you defer nothing that may tend to hasten our relief, etc. This petition was signed by Benjamin Chambers and seventy-four others, and dated Cumberland, july 15th, 1754.
