What happens
The truce with Great Britain is being celebrated all over the country with liberty poles, tall wooden poles planted in the ground and surmounted by a Phrygian cap. It was used during the War of Independence by the Sons of Liberty as a symbol of dissent against Great Britain. In New York City, the Sons of Liberty erected liberty poles which were periodically destroyed by the royal authorities, a struggle which was often violent and raged for 10 years. Now, a liberty pole in New York City has been crowned with a gilt vane bearing the single word, 'Liberty'.
