In colonial New England, the town crier played a vital role in the dissemination of news and information. Before the advent of modern communication methods, town criers were responsible for delivering official announcements, news, and public proclamations to the residents. Equipped with a handbell to attract attention, the town crier would stand in prominent public spaces, such as the town square, and loudly proclaim messages from the town government, including news of new laws, market days, town meetings, and community events.

The town crier served as the voice of the local authorities, ensuring that important information reached all members of the community, including those who were illiterate. Their role was crucial for maintaining order and informing the populace, especially in times of emergency or significant events. The town crier's proclamations were trusted and authoritative, making them a key figure in the social and civic life of colonial towns. Their presence helped bridge communication gaps in the community, contributing to the cohesive functioning of early New England society.
