SUNDAY, JULY 17, 2010 at the Edmund Fowle House in Watertown, Ma.. we celebrated the Reenactment of a double Special Occasion.... The reading for the first time in Watertown on July 18, 1776 at the Fowle House, of the new Declaration of Independence by the new United States of America, recently declared. The Fowle House at that time, because of the dangers to our seat of Government in Boston, was moved to The Fowle House.This day was sponsored by The Historical Society of Watertown. Governor's Councillor Marilyn Devaney is seen in the white dress reading the original Treaty After this, we also did a Reenactment of the signing on July 19, 1776, upstairs in the Fowle House. This is the FIRST treaty ever signed with a foreign Nation, that being the M'ikmaq and St. John's Tribes of Native Americans. As far as we know today, that may still be the ONLY Treaty ever signed by this Government with any Native American Tribe that WE have never broken.
