The Citizens of Hillsborough New Jersey confirms their support for the Continental Congress, large document on vellum, 13" x 13", no date, probably early 1776, the text in full: "The freeholders and inhabitants of Hillsborough, in the county of Somerset and provence of New Jersey having Long Viewed with Concern the Avowed Design of the Ministry of Great Britain to Raise a Revinue In America; Being Deeply affective with the Cruel Hostilities allready Comence in Massachusetts Bay for Carrying that Abritrary Design into Exectution; Convinced that the Preservation of the Rights and Priviledges of America Depends, under God on the firm union of its inhabitants, do, with hearts abhoring Slavery and ardently wishings for a Reconciliation with our parent State on Constitutional principles, Solomnly Associate Resolve under Sacred Ties of virtue, Honour and Love to our Country that we will Personally and as Far as our Influence Extends Endevor to Support and Cary into Execution whatever Measures may be Recommended by the Contitental Provincial Congresses Descending and our Constitution Preserving the Same Inviolate.

The document was signed by more than 30 citizens of Hillsborough. One small split and a couple of tiny unnoticeable holes, some worn areas but mostly quite readable, exceedingly rare. There are two or three more of these documents in historical societies, such as Salem County. We are not aware of any others in private hands. A wonderful historic artifact of America at the beginning of the Revolutionary War, clearly showing what was disturbing the colonists about Great Britain's rule. Estimate 4,000 - 5,000 (Image)

AMERICAN WAR OF INDEPENDENCE, 10th July 1780 Letter (8 pages, without outer wrapper) headed "Camp near the River Brunse". It is likely that the writer was with General Sir Henry Clinton's forces in New York. The letter describes a recent engagement with "the whole Militia of the Country [New Jersey] join'd by a strong Part of Washington's Army who disputed every inch of ground. we advanc'd only. about 10 miles which cost us between 3 & 400 Men kill'd & wounded". The writer goes on to discuss the recent successful British siege of Charleston in which he was involved, the indecisive Naval Battle off Martinique, problems of communication with England on account of the French Fleet, etc. Together with this important Campaign Letter is an earlier letter from the same writer concerning an unnecessary detour to the Channel Islands in 1779 just after leaving England for America. Also four multi page letters (one with postal markings) referring to the writer of the other two letters, from which it appears that he was Colonel James Stuart, ensign of the First Regiment of Guards, who "lived with a woman by whom he has five children." and was the brother of Lord Blantyre (to whom all six letters were addressed). He was killed in America on 15th March 1781 at the Battle of Guilford, Connecticut. An excellent group, offering some fine insights into the period. Estimate 750 - 1,000 (Image)
