"Mutiny of the Pennsylvania Line"
by Larry Smith [Blair County Chapter, Pennsylvania Society SAR]
All eleven of the Pennsylvania Continental regiments left winter camp in Morristown NJ and
marched to Princeton, preparing to continue to Philadelphia. After eleven days the mutiny was resolved
with little bloodshed. One result was the re-organization of the men remaining in the eleven much-under-strrength
Pennsylvania Continental regiments into three full "provisional" Pennsylvania Continental regiments.
