Index Entry | Tune, Yankee Tune [t], British troops end playing |

Citation | SCGCJ.775.057 30 May 1775:12 (496) Newport, (Rhode Island) May 1. By the best accounts of the late action [at Lexington], it appears, that considering the number engaged on each side, the fire of the American, did at least four times as much execution as that of the regulars. It is said the British troops in Boston have done playing the Yankee tune; and give the American a great character for humanity and courage. |
