Stop by Hogshead Trades Museum and meet two prominent Annapolis ladies, Mrs. Dulaney and Mrs. Calvert (portrayed by Kerry McClure and Gema Gonzalez), who are saying farewell to one another—and to the town they have long called home.

As revolution spreads through the colonies, their families prepare to withdraw to their plantations, hoping to avoid the turmoil of war.

Reflecting on the latest news and an uncertain future, they explain why a lifetime of allegiance to the British Crown cannot be abandoned!
