Dubbing themselves the “Minutewomen”, Prudence, who had been elected as the militia’s captain, and about 30-40 other townswomen dressed as men, shouldered muskets, wielded pitchforks, and marched to Jewett’s Bridge. It was here on the Nashua River that the “Prudence Wright Guard” planned to intimidate the approaching Redcoats. The courageous women successfully stopped the British, captured several soldiers, and intercepted vital dispatches regarding troop movements.
Yes. There was this one group. Prudence was a force. One of the Tories she cornered was a relative who knew she meant business. I had forgotten about her. I can’t believe my post autocorrected from Lexington HS had the minute maids to whatever that Lexi thing is.

Not a great sports name IMO! Rip it up, Revs!

I can’t stand GW…residual hate from the Jarvis era. :twisted:
