AMERICAN REVOLUTION, THE CRISIS,
AMERICAN REVOLUTION, THE CRISIS, SEPT 9, 1775 The Crisis, dated September 9, 1775 is a fine example of an early newspaper from London printed on Fleet Street by T.W. Shaw containing a scathing full edition letter to John Stuart, 3rd Earl of Bute (1713-1792). He was briefly Prime Minister in the 1760s and quickly became one of the most vilified men in the British world. Burned in effigy (often represented by a jackboot) from London to Virginia, the Scottish Lord Bute was a powerful symbol of pervasive fears that hidden forces behind the throne were bent on corrupting the British constitution. This letter discussed the weakness of the king and the disgrace that has come from the colonies having the revolution and the ramifications of such action with mention of brave Washington and cowardly Americans. Very strong wording with emotionally driven content. Signed CASCA, most likely a reference to one of the assassins of Julius Caeser, who's fear was the king was going to go against the ideals of the empire as was the case in the direction of the letter.
