It’s July 1775, and the past few months have seen open fighting between New Englanders and the king’s troops at Lexington and Concord and at Bunker Hill. The local community has rallied around the Wentworth House as a site for gathering supplies for the troops surrounding Boston, for local men to train and prepare to leave home, and for the women of the town to share the latest news.
