No offense Humble, but I pride myself on knowing the truth about American history, and I’m sure that quite often I sound less than acute because I don’t tow the party line. July 4th? Nope, July 2nd would be the more important date, etc. I cut Sarah slack because I know... exactly... how... she... feels.
Good deal then. Do you happen to know what they suspected the British soldiers would seize:
...it was supposed, that they were going to Lexington, by the way of Cambridge River, to take them, or go to Concord, to distroy the Colony Stores."...
Does this indicate they were after arms as Sarah Palin indicated?
