Historic Cannon and Invasion Echoes in 1776 New Jersey
The article recounts British forces landing at Elizabeth and advancing toward Springfield and Westfield during the 1776 invasion, with Majien Kuyphausern in command and a hotly contested battle in Springfield. It notes the capture of William and Asadah Clark, the stealing of a church bell in Westfield, and the use of an old cannon known as one horn which was damaged. The cannon repeatedly returned to alarm and celebration, though it has been stolen multiple times since 1805. A movement seeks to preserve the piece in a museum, requiring firemen’s consent to part with it.
