On March 18, 1766, the British Parliament repealed the Stamp Act, which it had passed March 22, 1765. This legislation was repudiated by the "12 Immortal Judges of the Frederick County Court" in November 1765, the first official body in the colonies to do so. On March 18, 1843, Frederick Augustus Heisley, who designed and constructed Frederick's Town Clock in the steeple of Trinity Chapel on West Church Street, died in Harrisburg, PA. John W.
