MORRISTOWN – As the sweltering crowd intermittently shouted "justice," "down with King George," "huzza" (an early version of
"hurray") and "tyrant," they also listened to a reading of the Declaration of Independence on the lawn behind the historic Ford Mansion (Washington's Headquarters) at the Morristown National Historical Park. For on this Independence Day 2002, this was THE place to be to celebrate freedom.
