Batsto Iron Works and the 1776 Cannon Ball Effort

In early 1776 the Pennsylvania Council of Safety ordered Batsto Iron Works to produce cannon balls and shot. John Cox, owner and Council member, faced delivery hurdles as British blockades and seasonal wagon shortages slowed transport to Philadelphia. The council hired wagons and paid Cox 2,481 pounds for his wartime efforts, while Batsto continued arms production through the war.

Trainor Andrukite Campaign Promises Fire Hillside Reform

A Hillside campaign committee meeting for Edward J. Trainor and Loretta Andrukite outlined fiscal soundness in government as a key goal. Trainor praised Andrukite, a civic activist running for Tax Collector, for bringing efficiency to the office and serving residents. The image group included Frank Gennaro, Kevin Davis, Commissioners Lou Santagata and Jim Welsh, with Barbara Kulish and Bill Miller also noted. The passage then shifts to a Civil War era note about Batsto and Chestnut Neck, describing a British fleet’s 1779 expedition to crush privateers and the ensuing repulse up the Mullica River.
