Granary Burying Ground

06 Apr 2022 7 1 58
© 2022 Arlequin Photographie The Granary Burying Ground in Massachusetts is the city of Boston's third-oldest cemetery, founded in 1660 and located on Tremont Street. It is the final resting place for many notable Revolutionary War-era patriots, including Paul Revere, the five victims of the Boston Massacre, and three signers of the Declaration of Independence: Samuel Adams, John Hancock, and Robert Treat Paine. The cemetery has 2,345 grave-markers, but historians estimate that as many as 5,000 people are buried in it.

Old State House (Boston)

06 Apr 2022 14 2 70
© 2022 Arlequin Photographie In front of the Old State House, on March 5, 1770, the so-called Boston Massacre took place, in which five civilians were killed by British troops. The event, called a "massacre" for the purpose of propaganda, became a beacon for the groups pursuing the independence of the colonies and contributed to the outbreak of the American War of Independence. The site where the massacre took place is marked today by a circle of cobblestones on the traffic island at the intersection of Devonshire and State Streets in front of the Old State House. Today, the Old State House is surrounded by tall buildings of the Boston financial district. However, it is not completely obscured and can be seen very well from the harbor side. It contains a local history museum and is operated by the non-profit Bostonian Society. The building is part of the route of the Freedom Trail. Beneath the print (PiP) are four sections of verse, which read: Unhappy BOSTON! see thy Sons deplore, Thy hallow'd Walks besmear'd with guiltless Gore: While faithless P--n and his savage Bands, With murd'rous Rancour stretch their bloody Hands; Like fierce Barbarians grinning o'er their Prey, Approve the Carnage, and enjoy the Day. If scalding drops from Rage from Anguish Wrung If speechless Sorrows lab'ring for a Tongue, Or if a weeping World can ought appease The plaintive Ghosts of Victims such as these; The Patriot's copious Tears for each are shed, A glorious Tribute which embalms the Dead But know, FATE summons to that awful Goal, Where JUSTICE strips the Murd'rer of his Soul: Should venal C--ts the scandal of the Land, Snatch the relentless Villain from her Hand, Keen Execrations on this Plate inscrib'd, Shall reach a JUDGE who never can be brib'd. The unhappy Sufferers were Mess.s SAM.L GRAY, SAM.L MAVERICK, JAM.S CALDWELL, CRISPUS ATTUCKS & PAT.K CARR Killed. Six wounded; two of them (CHRIST.R MONK & JOHN CLARK) Mortally Published in 1770 by Paul Revere Boston

Paul Revere 1734/1735 - 1818

06 Apr 2022 7 2 79
© 2022 Arlequin Photographie Paul Revere learned the trades of silversmith and letterpress printer and worked as a graphic artist and as a dental technician. His most famous print, a depiction of the "Boston Massacre" of 1770, placed him in the forefront of anti-British propagandists. He was a member of the Sons of Liberty and participated in the Boston Tea Party (1773).
