The American Herald of Liberty, Vol 8 Issue No. 11, September 17, 1793 - Exeter, NH

This week we have our oldest newspaper yet! With this we have a renewed call for a new war against Britain, as well as pro and anti views on the French Revolution. This episode was a fun and frustrating one to record with some slight spelling and print differences from what we're used to. I would also ask you to excuse my French and my attempts at pronouncing a few names and phrases.
