The village of Lexington lies about
ten miles northwest OF Boston. the
first settlement was made there IN
1910 near the site of what Afterwards
became known as the Buchanan Tay-
ern. There still remain in the village
several well-preserved houses which
were standing at the time or the bat
tie of Lexington 125 years ago. They
have peer well cared for and have UNI
dergone little change. They add much
to the historic interest OF the place
and are annually visited by thousands
of tourists. The local historical society
has placed tablets on them enumerat-
ing the dates and facts of especial In
terest.
Lexington Common is In the form
OF a triangle and stands nearly In the
center Of the village. AT the time OF
the fight on April 10. 1775, 1t was an
open space and used as a drill ground
for the militia. Today 1t Is a beautiful
park. At the southern end of the tri-
angle is what is known as the Pulpit
monument, In the form OF a granite
pedestal Surmounteu by an open bipie'
This monument stands on the site OF
the first three churches built by the
colonists. Just behind 1t. properly
protected, is a thrifty elm which was
set out by Gen. Grant 20 years ago
on the centennial anniversary OF the
battle. Near the northwest corner OF
the Common is the Minute-men mon
ument, at the foot of which are buried
those killed In the battle. 1t Is quaint
ly inscribed and bears the names OF
those whose last resting place 1t
marks. In 1924 Lafayette was given
a public reception in front OF this
monument, and fourteen survivors OF
Capt. Parker's men shook hands with
him. Near the northeast corner OF
the Common is a huge boulder mark

when the famine stalks abroad the
Hindoo submits uncomplainingly. Day

THE spy.
FRANCIS NJ. FINCH.

With calm brow, steady brow,
He listens to his doom:
In his look there is no fear,
Nor a shadow-trace OF gloom;
But with calm brow, and steady brow,
He robes him for the tomb.
In the long night. the still night,
He kneels upon the sod.
Aid the brutal guards withhold
Fen the precious Word of God;
In the long night. the still night,
He walks where Christ has trod.
Meath the blue morn, the sunny morn,
He dies upon the tree,
And he mourns that he can lose
But one life for liberty
And in the blue morn, the sunny morn,
His spirit-wings are free.
But his last words, his message words,
They burn, lest friendly eye
Should read how proud and calm
A patriot could die.
With his last words, his message words,
A soldiers battle-cry!
From Fame Leaf and from Angel Leaf,
From Monument and Urn,
The sad of earth, the glad of heaven.
His history shall learn,
And on Fame Leaf II Angel Leaf
The name of Hale shall burn.
