- On May 7, a small detachment of British soldiers and sailors was taking soundings on Lake St. Clair, near Detroit, when it was attacked by a band of Chippewa warriors.
- Last words
- (Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)The revolutionaries of 1776 did not leave a perfect world to their heirs. If subsequent generations have failed to live up to the ideals of 1776, however, no blame can be ascribed to the men and women who first gave their voice to those ideals and attempted, in a limited way, to put them into practice.
