Please note that the Midnight Ride of Paul Revere occurred the day before The Shot Heard Round the World, as was its purpose. During 1772, Paul Revere had made church bells manufactured from copper and tin for several of the churches in Boston.
This is the view of Paul Revere's grave from inside the church, on Brimstone corner, a granary used to store gunpowder during the revolution. Donna is cataloging book donations in the library- I have lunch overlooking the graveyard. Today is Palm Sunday.
Postscript: To commemorate the 250th anniversay of Paul Revere's Ride, The White House noted that the ride was intended to communicate with Sam Adams and John Hancock- both patriots are buried next to Paul Revere and their graves can also be viewed from where I have lunch on Sundays. Today was a week day and Donna bought me brunch in Cambridge, Massachusetts. (We did in fact take part of Brattle Street home. The name of the national park is Longfellow House-Washington Headquarters, but evey time we pass it she asks if its the other yellow house right before it, but she remembers the rabits in the garden.)Scott Lord
