In face Of such a force, Colonel
Smith The English commander, could
not tarry. He took his wounded men
and began to retire on Boston. The
Minute Men from all the towns of east
ern Massachusetts were waiting tor
him and searching for him. The men
of Middlesex, who had formed at Con,
cord, We're pushing him. His retreat
became a flight. His jaded men, on
the run in their panic, welcomed with
joy at Lexington a reinforcement un,
der Lord Percy. Percy had marched
from Boston, through RoXbury and
Cambridge, and arrived at Lexington
just in time TO save the wreck of the
first division, but he saw that he must
not linger, n returned to Cambridge
in as good order as he might. But ev-
cry stone wall was lined with fire, and
night had fallen when, to the anxious
people OF Boston the return OF the two
expeditions was indicated by the flash
of musketry on the north side of the
bay.
Gage had begun the war and had
been driven TO his quarters.
The English loss was 10 men killed,

And so through the night went his cry

A cry of defiance, and not of fear,
A voice in the darkness, a knock at
the door,
And a word that shall echo forever.
