That controversy is still warm and, the chances are, will always find partakers, especially in the towns df Lexington and Conc&rd, Mass., rivals for the honors of patriotism. It was revived by the recent historical celebration at Lexington. Was there really a battle at Lexington, when Major ritcairns British troops killed eight American militiamen? The phase, fired the shot heard round the world would lead one to believe that In the engagement that marked the first outbreak of hostilities the colonials offered stiff opposition, but the truth 18 that right after the fight they were very careful to deny any shots whatever had been fired on their side. Treason Then. BrHlsh Flring-o- n open rebellion, and the colonists at this time, 1775, were petitioning for their rights, not fighting for freedom. Independence had hardly been thought of. The battle of Lexington was nothing less than treason. The Massachusetts provincial congress, then meeting at Watertown, acted cannily and lawyerlike, says the New York Herald.. The depositions of 62 persons were taken to prove that the Colonials were dispersing on Pitcairn's order, and It was admitted only by Implication that the shot heard round the world" had actually been fired.

But in- - addition it recalls some historic and patriotic associations of the old New Hampshire town which are well worth cherishing, and one of which, pefhapa the greatest and most significant of all, has been far too much neglected. It was four months before the famous night ride to Concord and Lexington, and the consequent "shot heard round the world." Paul Revere came riding with desperate speed into Durham to tell John Sullivan, for the Boston Committee of Safety, that George III had put an embargo on Importations of arms and ammunition Into the eolonies, and was sending two regiments up from Boston to occupy Portsmouth and Its harbor fort.

Incidentally, he had all. the men take oft their boots and wade ashore and enter the fort barefooted, so as to make no noise, and remain barefooted In the boat all the way back, lest a nail In a boot-hee- l strike fire and explode the powder and It was In New Hampshire. Led to British Raid. It was that exploit of Sullivans that provoked the British four months later to try to raid the patriot stores at Concord, with momentous results. Moreover, some of that very powder carted from Durham down to Charlesaltown In John Demerltts though It arrived too late to save the day at Bunker Hill, did arrive just in time to enable John Stark to cover the retreat of Prescotts troops and save them from being trapped ox-car- t, other girls about it.
