Paul Revere’s Ride to Lexington Concord 1775

2 Shares
I had a heart attack several years ago so we called in sick from the church library to day for a pastrami and cheese here in Cambridge rather than our weekly Sunday on Boston Common.
(To be honest, for a year or so we would vist West Concord- by the Ocean Spray headquarters there's a neat path through the woods to the Assabet river, but not really Lexington-Concord together yet... optimistically, its a new Space Age and I'm from Massachusetts; Donna's from New Jersey.) These are from a Houghton-Mifflin 1907 volume; for a while in high school I was a collector, which essentially, roundaboutly, at first brought me to Cambridge. There was something inspirational that our church bought the office next door that housed Little and Brown- so I had a period of collecting them during Modern Times. Again, we became the tallest church spire in America after competing with the Old North Church, which was in 1809. Our apartment in Cambridge is in a section of Cambridge which was active during the Revolutionary War.
This is The Old North Church in Boston with Donna sitting nect to me. If you are writing a book titled something like The Art of the Revolutionary War may I send you my best- history can quickly become art history. These are from Paul Revere's Engravings, which I found first and need time to look at. Scott Lord

In the library one of the church members withdrew a novel entitled In His Steps by Charles Sheldon. Donna wants to attend Mass after church in Harvard Square at Saint Paul's, which is a student orientated church eith Harvard curriculum. So in effect the morning has been at our Congregational Church of ten years, and the afternoon will be our second Mass together after her father's passing at an Apostolic church we have never before attended. Christ Has Risen. Scott Lord Scott Lord
