Boundary War Escalates at Aroostook River Clash
The Great Westers arrive in Bristol after a 14 day half homeward voyage as Maine and Massachusetts push to resolve the north eastern boundary dispute. Maine authorities authorize a land-agent to raise forces to drive trespassers from New Brunswick, seizing lumber and assets, with 150 men and later 200 more deployed. The incident ends with captives and a demand for reinforcement while New Brunswick warns of countermeasures and a possible military response.
