| 2 |  "The Boston Brahmin accent, also known as Brahmin English, is a historical accent once associated with Boston’s upper-class elite, particularly the old-money families known as the Boston Brahmins. This dialect often sounds similar to an English accent, and is characterized by non-rhotic pronunciation, elongated vowels. It often includes unique vocabulary and pronunciation that reflect its formal tone and English roots.
Emerging in the 19th century as a marker of social status, the Brahmin dialect was closely tied to Boston’s intellectual and cultural aristocracy. Though its prevalence has declined over time, replaced by other regional accents and more generalized American accents, the Brahmin Boston dialect remains a fascinating linguistic artifact of American history." | 258 |

📍Worcester, Massachusetts
The plaque is depicting a boy with an Abenaki man holding a bow. The plaque reads:
'On this site stood the home of Samuel Lenorson
'This tablet is erected in memory of his son Samuel who at twelve years of age was stolen by the Indians in 1695 His master joined in the attack on Haverhill in 1697 assisting in the capture of Mrs. Dustin and Mrs. Neff on the march toward Canada While encamped on an island near Concord NH These captives led by Mrs. Dustin killed ten of the Indians and thus regaining their liberty returned to their homes.'

📍Guilford, Connecticut
'We whose names are hereunder written, intending by God’s gracious permission to plant ourselves in New England, and if it may be, in the southerly part about Quinnipiack, we do faithfully promise each to other, for ourselves and our families and those that belong to us, that we will, the Lord assisting us, sit down and join ourselves together in one entire plantation and to be helpful each to other in any common work, according to every man’s ability and as need shall require, and we promise not to desert or leave each other or the plantation, but with the consent of the rest, or the greater part of the company who have entered into this engagement. As for our gathering together in a church way and the choice of officers and members to be joined together in that way, we do refer ourselves until such time as it shall please God to settle us in our plantation. In witness whereof we have subscribed our hands this first day of June 1639'

| 7 |  Memorial Arch of Tilton
📍Northfield, New Hampshire
The Memorial was supposed to be a giant tombstone for Charles Tilton. Alas, things did not work out that way, and now it’s just a monument, with Tilton being buried nearby in a humble cemetery.
Charles Tilton got rich during the California Gold Rush. When he returned to his hometown of Sanbornton Bridge, NH, he invested heavily in it. So much so in fact, that the residents named the town after him.
Inspired by the Arch of Titus in Rome, Tilton had his own arch built in the early 1880s on a large hill with one of the best views in the area. He planned on being interred in the large, lion-topped, pink-granite sarcophagus between the two columns at its base. He also planned on Northfield, the adjoining town where the hill was actually located, being incorporated into Tilton. However, when Northfield eventually refused, Tilton forsook his finished monument and was buried in Park Cemetery off West Main Street in his beloved Tilton.

| 10 |  "Live Free or Die,"
New Hampshire State Motto
"Live Free Or Die; Death Is Not The Worst Of Evils."
"Live Free Or Die," once voiced by General John Stark, the state’s most distinguished hero of the Revolutionary War, and the world famous Old Man of the Mountain was voted the official state emblem.
The motto was part of a volunteer toast which General Stark sent to his wartime comrades, in which he declined an invitation to head up a 32nd anniversary reunion of the 1777 Battle of Bennington in Vermont, because of poor health.
The toast said in full: "Live Free Or Die; Death Is Not The Worst of Evils." The following year, a similar invitation (also declined) said: "The toast, sir, which you sent us in 1809 will continue to vibrate with unceasing pleasure in our ears, "Live Free Or Die; Death Is Not The Worst Of Evils."
It was the 1945 Legislature that gave New Hampshire its official motto and emblem, as World War II approached a successful end.

| 15 |  The 1689 Boston Revolt
In the late 17th century, the New England colonies had grown frustrated with the increasing control by the English Crown and its establishing of The Dominion of New England. This implemented several unpopular policies, imposed new taxes, and local restrictions.
On April 18, a mob gathered in Boston and arrested Governor Andros and other high-ranking officials of the Dominion. The colonists established a temporary government called the "Council of Safety" and issued a Declaration of Grievances.
The uprising spread beyond Boston, with other towns in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island joining the revolt and establishing their own local governments.
The 1689 Boston revolt led to the dismantling of the Dominion of New England, restoration of some colonial charters, and It paved the way for future acts of rebellion leading to the American Revolution.

| 19 |  Burning a yule-log is a well known yuletide tradition, but there is a West Country variant on this in a tradition known as the Ashen Faggot. Instead of a log, nine green Ash poles are bound together with kindling and slowly fed into the hearth. Depending on the region this rite was performed on various nights – however most sources agree that this was an old English custom.
