Province of Halifax Revolts as Arbuthnot Fortifies City
From last night’s issue, Halifax reportedly revolted and Commodore Arbuthnot has placed the town on its best defence. Letters describe Fort Johnson seized and islanded, with Provincials fortifying positions above Ashley and Cooyver rivers. Reports caution against believing claims of the King’s confidence in America and note various maritime incidents and Irish parliamentary acts.
