SUMMARY:260th Anniversary of Repudiation Day
DESCRIPTION:Join the Carrollton Manor Chapter\, NSDAR; Frederick Chapter\, NSDAR; and Sgt. Lawrence Everhart Chapter SAR Dressed in your mid 1700’s Attire to Reenact this Important Frederick County Historical Event \nOn November 23\, 1765\, twelve judges of Frederick County became the first to repudiate the British Stamp Act\, a tax which was designed to cover the costs of keeping British troops in the American colonies. The judges met in a home on Record Street\, near the county courthouse (today’s City Hall)\, and decided they were not going to charge the tax and refused to require local residents to use stamped papers. The late Judge Edward Delaplaine called the 12 Frederick County judges who repudiated the Stamp Act the “12 immortal judges.” \nA reenactment of the well-documented parade by the celebrating citizens of old Frederick Town will form up at 2:00 PM in front of City Hall and we encourage community participation. A parade will follow the sidewalks of old town Frederick. Participating in the parade will be the Daughters of the American Revolution\, Sons of the American Revolution\, the Monocacy / Old Line Music Corp\, “citizens of the town” carrying the coffin in which the Stamp Act was symbolically laid to rest and people carrying signs expressing their feeling about the Stamp Act. Once back at City Hall\, there will be a brief ceremony on the front steps then activities will move into the City Hall Meeting Room. Guest speakers will relate the history of the period and the story of everyday people doing extraordinary things to secure their rights and liberties. Adults and children interested in the history of Frederick and this period in Colonial America should find the presentations informative and educational.
