Book Description
Excerpt from History of Worcester, and Its People, Vol. 2 When war with France was imminent in 1798, and the President was authorized to raise troops for the emergency, a company of sixty men under Capt. Thomas Chandler, called the Worcester Volunteer Cadet Infantry, was formed. A flag was made by the ladies of the city and presented with much ceremony to the company. The company, with the Worcester artillery company, joined the forces known later as the "Oxford Army." Other Worcester men enlisted in the 14th Regiment under Lt. Col. Rice and went into camp. Except for the encounters on the sea, the war was entirely on paper, and the soldiers were not in actual service. War of 1812. - A convention of delegates from forty-one towns was held here, Aug. 12 and 13, 1812, to protest against the continuance of the war with Great Britain. Worcester was represented by Hon. Benjamin Heywood, Hon. Francis Blake and Elijah Burbank. Mr. Heywood presided. A committee was appointed to "consider and report what measures the Convention ought to adopt, in the present perilous situation of our Country, to mitigate the calamities of the present War with Great Britain, to avert the further evils with which we are threatened, to accomplish a speedy and honorable peace and to arrest the course of that disastrous policy which, if persisted in, cannot fail to terminate in the destruction of the rights and liberties of the people." The committee consisted of Andrew Peters, Hon. Francis Blake, Rev. John Crane, Hon. Solomon Strong, Aaron Tufts, Benjamin Adams, Gen. James Humphrey, Rev. Jonathan Osgood, Nathaniel Chandler, John W. Stiles and Col. Seth Benister. The committee reported on the 13th, dealing at great length with the causes of the war and its continuance. The report as adopted urged the shortening of the present most impolitic and destructive war, exhorting the friends of peace for that purpose to withdraw from the government all voluntary aid, and to render no other assistance than is required of them by the laws and the Constitution. "We do not, like some men, now in high authority, advise our constituents to refuse payment of them (double or direct taxes) and to rise in opposition to the authority by which they are imposed.
