When the yellow fever epidemic hit Philadelphia in 1793, many residents fled the city to escape the outbreak, leading to a mass exodus. Those who stayed often took on the responsibility of caring for the sick, despite the risks involved. Volunteers, including the Free African Society, helped to provide aid and support to the afflicted, while local authorities implemented quarantines and sanitation measures in an effort to control the spread of the disease. The crisis revealed both the fears and the resilience of the community during a time of crisis.
