Subject: happy? - May 10 From: Abby Sale Date: 10 May 05 - 08:12 AM 5/10/1775: Battle of Ft Ticonderoga, NY; the 1st agressive US act (won by Col. Ethan Allen with his evolved "committee of safety" plus Col. Ben Arnold et al.) The fate of the Colonies was mearly a side issue to the Vermont Wars of Independence against New York & New Hampshire.
"The Song of the Vermonters" by John Greenleaf Whittier; The New Green Mountain Songster, HH Flanders, etc., 1939 & 1966. The song is well established in tradition in Vermont. This "Clinton" is probably NY Governor George Clinton, twice vice-president & DeWitt's father. (The fort was abandoned to British forces July 6, 1777) Copyright © 2005, Abby Sale - all rights reserved |
