A printed circular addressed to women, urging them to support American domestic manufactures and give up imported British fabrics and fashionable dress. It invokes the example of colonial women who boycotted tea. It sets out two resolutions: to buy only articles made in the United States, and to employ only spinners, sewers, knitters and weavers who clothe themselves in homespun. It ends with a long list of women's signatures from a borough and asks for signature lists to be returned by the first of February.
