PAUL REVERE AND ROGER SPREAD THE ALARM. Roger's heart almost stopped beating, as the conversation recorded above fell upon his ears. What was this the British officers were saying? They were going to capture Samuel Adams and John Hancock, and place them under military arrest! The two greatest men, politically, the colonies at that time knew! It must never be! Young as he was, he realised the importance of such a capture, should it be executed. In all the movements of the patriots in and about Boston, Samuel Adams was, to use the expression framed at that time, " the power behind the throne." He was a foremost member of Congress in 1774, and he helped draw up the original draft of the State Constitution, and now hardly a movement was made but what he was directly or indirectly concerned in it. Of John Hancock no less could be said. Elected to the presidency of the Provincial Congress in 1774, he stood shoulder to shoulder with Samuel Adams, in company with Doctor Warren, afterwards General Warren, the martyr-hero of Bunker Hill, Josiah Quincy, Jr., the patriots' Cicero, William Cooper, the fearless Boston town clerk, and a score of men equally feared by the Crown. In addition to being an active patriot, Hancock was one of the wealthiest landowners and business men of Boston, and his influence caused many a merchant to become a Whig, who might otherwise have turned Tory. "It must not be," thought the boy. "I must tell Captain Parker, -- everybody. Somebody must know where Mr. Adams and Mr. Hancock are stopping to-night, and warn them to seek a place of safety. And the militia and minute men must be on guard, too, against the troops General Gage is going to send from Boston. That surprise must not be all on one side!" With bated...

Download or read book Lexington written by Richard Kollen and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Established in 1713 by Puritans, Lexington entered the history books as the "Birthplace of American Liberty" one April morning in 1775, but the town's history did not begin or end with that event. Though primarily agrarian, early-nineteenth-century Lexington contained twelve taverns, a large fur industry, and other manufacturing businesses. The twentieth century brought a streetcar system with Lexington Park, replete with a zoo and a theater, at its terminus. With the construction of Route 128, Lexington's population rapidly increased and the farm era faded, changing the shape of the community. Through fascinating vintage images, Lexington traces the town's life as it transformed from a provincial farming village to an attractive suburb of Boston. Within these pages, you will visit Massachusetts House and Russell House, where wealthy Bostonians enjoyed summering in the town's "good air" after the Civil War; beautiful estates, including the Hayes Castle, that dotted the town's hills once the railroad to Boston became a reality for commuters; and the Lexington station, the last remaining depot train shed in Massachusetts, which stood at the foot of Meriam Hill.

With no trace of her family, Lex grew up at the zoo with her foster father, Roger; her best friend, Fisher; and the wind whispering in her ear. Years later, Nyah sends Lex a telepathic image of the woods outside the zoo. Soon, Lex is wrapped up in an adventure involving ghosts, lost treasure, and a puzzle that might be the key to finding her family. Can Lex summon the courage to discover who she really is--and why the tornado brought her here all those years ago?
