The two-sided handbill features a reprint from the Boston Evening Transcript. The first side includes text referencing the United States’ neutrality in the “European War” and calling attention to an “editorial which appeared in the Providence Journal, soon after the start of the European War, and which was reprinted by the Boston Transcript, as shown on the following page.” On the reverse side, the cartoon entitled “Convicted!” shows a small girl, labeled “Belgium,” pointing at an over-sized German soldier. Below the cartoon is an editorial condemning German atrocities in Belgium.
