Arrested!

A group was gathered listening to the words of Benjamin Franklin, when suddenly, several British Redcoats arrived and announced that Franklin was being arrested for sedition to the King. Here, a handcuffed Franklin is being led away. Fortunately for him, a contingent of American militiamen arrived moments later and, outnumbering the British, forced Franklin's release.
