"Tell your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their children nnother generation," is an injunction honored by age, but which every true New Englander is prompted to obey on each anniversary of tho memorable battle of the opening or the revolution. A glimpse at the battle map gives the reader some intimation of the territory stirred to action and from which came the embattled farmers, and suggests the spirit of gratitude shnwu In bronze and granite set up by those who now consider that significant uprising In connection with Its consequences to the entire world. Although years have passed, evidence of the yeomens determination continue to accumulate. Of all the towns that responded to tbs Lexington alarm, none has a grander record than the town of Acton, and from the old Robbins garret In that territory has come this very spring a yellow manuscript which reads ns follows: "We, the subscribers, do solemnly agree and promise that ws will observe and conform to the association of the continental congress, and do horeby make It our own particular act and convcnnnt until we obtain an ample redress of our grievances, as Is specified In the said association, ns wltnqss our hand this fifth day of December, 1774. Of the twenty-seve- n signature! to this paper, one autograph most Impressive Is that of Isaac Davis, who fell nt Old North brldgo on the 9th of April. The alarm sounded by Paul Revere was carried on by courier to the borders of the county and beyond, while Ebenezer Dow, who left Boston about the same hour, disguised as a countryman on a marketing trip, gave the alarm to the towns In other directions. took place before the engagr nent: "I havent a man thats afraid to go," and the Acton minute men vjrt in the front In the opening fight Cnpt Davis and Abner Hoamer were killed and Ezekiel Dafrls was wounded wh.le pursuing tb enemy, and at Fisks hill James Hayfard was mortally wounded.

The retreats lng enemy came down the main road and the watchers were surprised by a flanking party of Irritated British, who wreaked their vengeance on the provincials. Not less than 22 Americans fell on that April afternoon In Menotomy (Cambridge), and fully twice as many of the enemy perished. Many of the dead were carried back to the towns whence they came In the early morning. So urgent were their countrys needs that the villagers had no time for funeral rites and the carpenters were too busy to make the coffins, so that these martyrs were committed to a common grave with their clothes for shrouds. Lynn, In Essex county, responded' with a will. Many men went In hot haste In answer to the early warning. Four were killed, as the immortal croll bears testimony. One, Abed-neg- o Ramsdell, ran tn hia stocking feet from the marsh, where he was gunning, all the way to Saugus, got to Lexington at noon, faced the British In the middle of the road, fired ones and fell riddled with bullets. No more pretentious monument is needed than the simple gravestone set up to Townsends memory. Charlestown, although only across the river Charles, saw none of the fighting until the return of the enemy, yet her men were out In pursuit of the British, with whom they were familiar. James Miller was killed and a son of Capt William Barber, 11 years old, lost his life.

The Wcstford men were among the first at the bridge. Tho company reached Concord just as the firing began, and joined In the pursuit Capt Bates was mortally wounded. The old town of Billerica had a score to settle against the kings troops, for during the winter of 1771-one of the men cf tho town had been seized in Boston and treated to a coat of tar and feathers.
