May 30, 1593: Playwright Christopher Marlowe is killed in Deptford during a quarrel over a bill. #Shakespeare may allude to this incident with the line "it strikes a man more dead than a great reckoning in a little room" from As You Like It. #OTD

The first Mt. Tom summit house included observation decks, a restaurant, souvenir shop and a hall of mirrors. President William McKinley visited in 1899 and praised the beauty of the view. The next year the building burned to the ground, but a new one replaced it promptly.

The Revolution had heroes many Americans know little about. History books often left them out. But their courage helped shape a nation. 📖 Read: Don Troiani’s Black Soldiers in America’s Wars, 1754–1865 pairs jaw-dropping art with historical depth—revealing the stories too often overlooked. 📺 Watch: @kaj33 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s Netflix series, Black Patriots: Heroes of the Revolution, shines a long-overdue light on their fight for freedom. 👉 Once you know this part of history, you won’t forget it. #HiddenHistory #BlackPatriots #RealHeroes #DonTroiani #KareemAbdulJabbar #AmericanRevolution

@kellehersp @SaratogaNHP @fold3 @TodaysDAR We just found a quarter way down this page that Frank Goodway curated the page until his passing in 2012. Level of detail for each soldier listed is great! Will @SaratogaATP curate an updated list of all Patriots who participated & died? #America250 Thx! saratoganygenweb.com/sarapk.htm

@bsullivan35 @SaratogaNHP @fold3 @TodaysDAR Is it possible that they are gaps given this list was made by genealogist w/goal of finding individual histories? This is based on the returns so a military document. Could there be a missing document. Yes but I am sure it was documented on the source
