Lay down your arms ! Why don't you lay down your arms ? '' Finding the demand unheeded, they fired, doing no harm. They fired again, and men fell. Then the militia, who had been ordered not to fire unless they were fired upon, returned the assault of the troops. Kesistance was so clearly in vain, that the militia withdrew, fired upon as long as they remained in sight. Seven were killed and ten wounded on the American side. The British, with huzzas over their easy victory, hastened on to Concord.... They might shout, but they had begun a work whose end would be their own undoing. There was cause for rejoicing, but it was not with them. The prophetic vision of Samuel Adams looked through the dark days which were at hand to the exceeding light and liberty be- yond, and he uttered the lofty exclamation which we have written in granite : " Oh, what a glorious morn- ing is this ! " It was a short march to Concord ; but there the work of destruction which had brought the British from Bos- ton met with small success.
