The spirit of the Treaty\, the statesmanship of the diplomats and President Roosevelt\, and the citizen diplomacy of local people is a legacy that is perhaps more important than ever in these turbulent global times — and is echoed in the themes of the “Diplomats in Portsmouth” exhibit displayed for the Portsmouth NH 400th at the John Paul Jones House. \nBy re-enacting the bellringing that occurred when the Treaty was signed on September 5\, 1905\, we echo the celebration all around the Seacoast that welcomed the news that the Russo-Japanese War was over and we commemorate the active role local citizens played in helping to achieve that peace. So the sounding of bells around the state at 3:47 pm on September 5th is the historical\, and in many ways most meaningful celebration of Portsmouth Peace Treaty Day\, an official statewide observance since unanimous legislation was passed in 2010.
