Sunday, May 3 at 2:00 p.m. at  Peachfield, 180 Burrs Road, Westampton, NJ 08060 

Written and performed by Gayle Stahlhuth based on the diary of Margaret Morris and other research
Created to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution. 
Margaret Morris lived in Burlington, NJ when she began writing detailed entries in her diary on December 6, 1776. She knew General Washington had been defeated at the Battle of Long Island and was heading south, pursued by British General Sir William Howe. The Pennsylvania Navy, and the Pennsylvania and New Jersey militias were patrolling the Delaware River, preparing for war to come to Philadelphia. It was only a matter of time before Burlington, located along this river, not far from Philadelphia, would be invaded by Hessians. As many of her neighbors fled Burlington, Margaret remained, as she continued writing her story.
