Massachusetts Remonstrants Protest War Policy and Congress
A Massachusetts remonstrance denounces the War of 1812 as premature and unjust, accusing the administration of following French aims, and calls for immediate measures to stop hostilities, protect commerce, and preserve the union. It cites British repeal of orders, French decrees, and demands constitutional balance, fair taxation, and planning for peace.
