- Thank you, sir.
360
00:18:09,963 --> 00:18:13,175
I came to write a story about
unsung heroes of the Revolution
361
00:18:13,258 --> 00:18:15,135
and got more than
I bargained for.
362
00:18:15,177 --> 00:18:16,470
- I should say so.
363
00:18:16,512 --> 00:18:18,138
I feel quite as if
I witnessed these
364
00:18:18,222 --> 00:18:19,932
awful events myself.
365
00:18:19,973 --> 00:18:21,975
- I want my readers to be
as angry as I was
366
00:18:22,059 --> 00:18:23,560
when I was in Danbury.
367
00:18:23,644 --> 00:18:25,270
Maybe it'll help them
realize how important
368
00:18:25,312 --> 00:18:27,314
our fight for freedom
really is.
369
00:18:27,356 --> 00:18:29,358

it will do just that.

You too, girls,
James.
386
00:19:17,990 --> 00:19:19,867
I'm going to face them.

get an entire regiment

390
00:19:34,047 --> 00:19:34,965

00:19:44,391 --> 00:19:45,767
How many?

393

leaving.

Just to be sure.

I said they'll never
get you, Father.
