Echoes of Revolution

Boston

Memories

The Flag

You are outside Faneuil Hall. In 1776, while the Revolution was in full swing, this area was a hotbed of Patriotic sentiment. Talks were delivered here and revolutionary banners displayed openly despite the British occupation. Alongside Samuel Adams, create a banner and unfurl it on the front of the building in defiance at British rule.

Enter the streets of revolutionary era Boston and head to Faneuil Hall.

Historical details

The Flag

When the Thirteen Colonies of America were seceding from the British at the start of the revolution, it became necessary for a flag to be created to symbolize the patriot cause and rally individuals for the Revolution!

These flags were often created by local artists and revolutionary groups to reflect the locations or the key messages that they stood for. One famous example is The Moultrie Flag. Commissioned by Colonel William Moultrie in 1775 to prepare for war with Britain, it depicts a white crescent moon with the word “LIBERTY” inscribed within it on a field of navy blue.

Among several victories he was responsible for the capture of the Royal Navy frigate Serapis. He came to be regarded as the father of the American Navy due to his advocacy for and training of American Naval officers. "Historical_Title_Boats" An American Navy

Their work was kept secret through a network of supporters and through a range of spy craft during the revolution, from coded lantern signals to invisible ink and complex ciphers. \n \nAmong the most notable ciphers of the era was that developed by James Lovell, though it frequently failed in practice. Lovell's hints at the keyword were often so obscure as to be useless, as this instruction to John Adams illustrates: \"You certainly can recollect the name of that family where you and I spent our last evening together... Make regular alphabets in number equal to the first sixth part of that family name.\" Adams struggled so persistently with the cipher that he once accused Benjamin Franklin of deliberately withholding information, having simply failed to decode his letter.\n "Historical_Title_GDT" Green Dragon

Gather your gear and prepare to join the fight as one of the famous Minutemen.\n\nEnter revolutionary era Boston and head to the street next to the encampments on Boston Common. "MapMemoryIntro_Title_Gear" Minutemen "LOG_MilitiaGear" I joined the famous Minutemen at the encampment on Boston Common. There, under the command of Commander Bigelow, I gathered my gear and prepared to fight for the Patriot cause. "MILITIA_Collection_ItemCollected" COLLECTED "MILITIA_GearItem_Balnket_Detail" Soldiers' blankets were mostly made of wool, linen, or the mixed cloth linsey-woolsey, and came in a variety of colors and patterns. There was no official provision of blankets, and most were donated from people's own homes. "MILITIA_GearItem_Balnket_Title" Blanket "MILITIA_GearItem_Canteen_Detail" A canteen - made of wood, tin, or glass - was vital for militia soldiers to carry water on the march. With a typical day's march covering 8 to 13 miles and a canteen holding just 1.4 liters, a soldier had to make that supply last the entire day unless he found a chance to refill it. "MILITIA_GearItem_Canteen_Title" Canteen "MILITIA_GearItem_Hat_Detail" Perhaps one of the most iconic and easily recognized pieces of clothing from the colonial era is the tri-corner hat, or more simply known as the tricorn. Although the style originated in Europe, it is now associated with the American Revolutionary War and the nation's fight for freedom. "MILITIA_GearItem_Hat_Title" Tricorn Hat "MILITIA_GearItem_Horn_Detail" A militia soldier needed two powder horns: a large one, for the coarse powder used in the main charge in the musket, and a small one, to hold the more finely ground powder that was used in the priming pan. These were made from real horns that were often obtained from domestic cattle. "MILITIA_GearItem_Horn_Title" Powder Horns "MILITIA_GearItem_Musket_Detail" The most common weapon used during the American Revolution was the musket - a long smoothbore gun without grooves inside its barrel, fired from the shoulder. These weapons were slow, complicated to load and extremely inaccurate, and were normally only fired in volleys. "MILITIA_GearItem_Musket_Title" Musket "MILITIA_GearItem_Sword_Detail" During the Revolutionary War, most infantrymen carried a hanger as a secondary weapon, a type of short sword with a blade about twenty-five inches long, designed to supplement their musket in close combat. This sword is based on the one carried by Massachusetts minute man James Taylor. "MILITIA_GearItem_Sword_Title" Sword "MILITIA_GearItem_Worm_Detail" ‘The Worm' was the name given to a corkscrew-shaped piece of metal which was used to extract any residual debris from the barrel of the soldier's musket when cleaning it. Every soldier had to carry one in order to keep the musket ready to use.

Tap it to collect it. "MILITIA_TutModal_3_title" Collection "Historical_Details_Gear" As war broke out between the American colonies and Great Britain, the Americans were forced to adjust and evolve their military. This was previously defined by informal militia but as events around Boston became more tense, many communities in Massachusetts began to create more elite regiments. \n\nTheir regiments trained more frequently and were expected to be ready quickly, “at a minute’s warning...” They became known as “Minute Men.” These regiments were made of men from all economic and racial backgrounds and formed the backbone of the Revolutionary forces.\n "Historical_Title_Gear" Minutemen

A complex weapon, it required loading by hand with powder, wadding, and ramrod - a slow process demanding extensive training to master. This training was also essential for developing the discipline and coordinated movement necessary for cohesion on the battlefield. \n\nThe musket's smooth, non-rifled barrel also made it highly inaccurate, meaning speed of fire mattered far more than precision. A well-trained British soldier could discharge four rounds a minute; most recruits, however, could manage only one or two, making rigorous training vital to the Revolutionary cause.\n "Historical_Title_Muskets" Fighting for Freedom

"TRIAL_Toast_CorrectEvidence" That's it! That helps to answer the question. "TRIAL_Toast_Inactive" Humm... That doesn't seem pertinent to the case. "TRIAL_Toast_ItemCoal" It seems like they were throwing more than snowballs. "TRIAL_Toast_ItemCoat" These gunshot marks came from behind. Preston must've stood in front of his men when they fired. "TRIAL_Toast_ItemHat" Seems like Kilroy took a nasty blow to the head. "TRIAL_Toast_ItemWithContent" I wonder if there's something more to this. "TRIAL_Toast_MissingEvidence" We have not answered all of the questions yet. "TRIAL_Toast_Question1Complete" Based on testimony and marks on Preston's coat, it's clear he stood in front at the time. "TRIAL_Toast_Question1Complete_pt2" Therefore, he would not have called for them to fire unless he wanted to get shot! "TRIAL_Toast_Question2Complete" It's clear from the evidence that Preston's men did not shoot with malice. "TRIAL_Toast_Question2Complete_pt2" Kilroy had taken a substantial blow to the head and had large objects thrown at him. "TRIAL_Toast_Question2Complete_pt3" Even Carr said he had never seen soldiers bear half as much as those soldiers did.

"TRIAL_Toast_Question3Complete_pt3" Miss Whitehouse saw a man in dark-colored clothing who approached the men from behind.

"TRIAL_TutModal_5_title" Finalizing "Historical_Details_Trial" The Boston massacre was a confrontation between a small contingent of British soldiers and a crowd of around 300 revolutionary supporters in which five protestors were killed and six were injured. The Boston government was determined to give the soldiers a fair trial so that there could be no grounds for retaliation from the British. \n\nJohn Adams, despite being a member of the Sons of Liberty and revolutionary supporter, defended the men at trial. The trial resulted in Thomas Preston, the senior British officer present, being acquitted after the jury was convinced he had not ordered his troops to fire. In the trial of his eight other soldiers involved six of them were acquitted while two, Matthew Kilroy and Hugh Montgomery, were found guilty on the offense of manslaughter and sentenced a reduced punishment of a branding of the thumb.
