General John Stark & local militia rout British at the Battle of Bennington (Vermont)- 8/16/1777:

          Why come ye hither, Redcoats,
          Your minds what madness fills?
          In our valleys there is danger,
          And there's danger in our hills!
  
                  "The Riflemen of Bennington," The American Revolution; Folkways
                  (A good song.)
