Marblehead

Hi, Go Fact Yourself.

This is Todd Belfbecker from Marblehead, Massachusetts.

My question for What's the Difference is, while both are things that might be served by cookie on a cattle drive, what's the difference between pasta and noodles? Thanks a lot.

Have a great show.

Hi-yo.

Light shots on Marblehead.

Hold on.

Where's my phone? And how loud is she? How loud is she, John? Can you run that clip about how loud she is?

I don't know where that tone from Schefter comes from.

Here's Marty in Marblehead.

Yes, Marty.

Yeah, you guys took the Landry point right out of my mouth, but I'll make another point.

We'll see.

Let's go to Gene in Marblehead.

Hi, Gene.

Hi.

3 a.m.

The British expedition arrived in Menotomy, where the three members of the Committee of Safety from Marblehead, Colonel Jeremiah Lee, Colonel Azor Orni, and Eldridge Elbridge, that's Elbridge Gary, later signer of the Declaration of Independence and Vice President of the United States, were spending the night at the Black Horse Tavern following a session of the committee.

As the troops marched by, Geary and his associates arose from their beds to gaze on the unwanted spectacle, and upon the approach of an officer and file of soldiers to search the house, fled out the back door in their nightclothes and hid in a field of corn stubble.

4 A.M. General Gage, pondering the failure to keep the expedition a secret, ordered Lord Percy to start out from Boston via Ruxbury at this hour with a relief force of 1,000 men.

Lord Howe left ten or twelve transports and other armed vessels to blockade the harbor.

Ten or twelve days after this, Captain Mugford of Marblehead, a privateersman having just returned with a prize, a powder-ship, went down in company with the schooner Lady Washington, another privateer, to Pudding Point.

on his way out on another cruise.

They were attacked by boats from the fleet, which were finally repulsed, though Captain Mugford lost his life in the engagement.
