About the event
"One if by land and two if by sea..."
We are all familiar with that story. Â But what we're not familiar with is that the Old North Church congregants were loyalists. Â Old North's fame began on April 18, 1775 when two patriot vestrymen climbed the steeple and held two lanterns as a signal from Paul Revere that the redcoats were marching to Lexington and Concord, and coming via the Charles River. Â
Catherine Matthews with Old North Illuminated will speak specifically about the years 1775 - 1778 when loyalists Old North was closed for worship...and why.
