Jan. 10, 1770-The Battle of Golden
Hill was fought. This was the first
conflice of the American Revolution.
It occurred in New York City, seven
weeks before the Boston Massacre.
British soldiers killed one and wound
ed three, when Sons of Liberty sought
to prevent destruction of a Liberty
Pole set up on the outskirts of town
cat what is now Park Row and Broad
way)
A committee of 81 merchants and
property owners denounced the Sons
of Liberty as irresponsible and un-

added, IF you don't like this country,
why don't you go back where you
come from.

a very slight increase in the school

barrage-fire. ,,s
The British forces were now mold
ing 80 miles of the western 'front.' ana
thew were nowhere idle. Through
swirSing snow and driving rain,
through floods of mud, they plugged
away at the enemy, apparently deter
mined that Fritz should have no rest.
There were daily and nightly trench
raids and incessant bombardment.
The British had at last secured that
artillery preponderance for which
they had been striving for a year.
Their guns now outnumbered the Ger
mans. The lessons of Neuve Cha
pelle and Loos had been taken to
heart. There were no more rash
rushes into enemy lines before troops
and artillery were ready to support
the attack.
At last, the Battle of the Somme
could be said to have turned out to be
British victory. Before July /, 1916
Verdun had been the greatest continu-
Gus battle in world history. The
Somme had eclipsed it in numbers
engaged, in tactical difficulties, and
in Importance of the strategica
scheme of the campaign.
The objects of the Somme campaign
were three: to relieve Verdun; to pre-.
bent the Germans from transferring
| masses of troops to the east against
Russia; and to wear down German
strength All three aims had nov
been accomplished.
