Title
A View of the Palatine Camp form'd in White Chappel fields
Description
Illustration of a camp, in Whitechapel Fields, with triangular tents, a church and other buildings on the left beyond the field. People in foreground wash clothes and prepare food over open fires. This camp was established by about 800 natives of the Palatinate, a region in southwestern Germany, and Bohemia, part of present-day Czech Republic, who were tricked into setting out for a new life in America by an adventurer named Stumple. Once they shipped for London, Stumple abandoned them and they arrived at the Port of London in great destitution. The Tower of London sent 100 tents and funds were raised to send them to Carolina the following year.
