Militia Clash in Germantown Amid Fatal Shootings
A chaotic Philadelphia confrontation saw a violent clash between police, state troops named the Fencibles, and 10,000 strike sympathizers along Germantown Avenue. A dozen men were shot, at least 100 clubbed, women trampled, and children injured as the battle stretched for two hours. Major Thadbert Branen led four companies of troops deployed to guard the Germantown lines, while Mayor Reyburn and Henry Clay faced pressure to discipline the force. The scene began as a peaceful holiday crowd but escalated into a concerted, dangerous standoff near Gar mentown and Lehigh avenues, with soldiers stranded amid flanking onlookers and improvised attempts to seize their ammunition.
