Taunton Flag Morale Patch by Texas 144.1

On Friday, October 21, 1774, citizens of Taunton erected an enormous liberty pole. On Monday, October 24, the Boston Evening Post reported the story:

"We have just received the following intelligence from Taunton… A liberty pole 112 feet long was raised. Attached to it was a Union flag with the words Liberty and Union sewed on."

The flag, also known as the Liberty and Union Flag, symbolized revolt against British oppression. The Evening Post story inspired flags with similar mottoes throughout the colonies.
