Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Work of the Maryland Society of the Sons of the American Revolution: 1889 to 1902 The neglect of the State of Maryland to spend the few thousand dollars necessary to preserve its old Provincial, Colonial, and Revolutionary history, has resulted in the almost total ignorance by its people of the true facts in regard to the same. How many of its citizens know the truth of the settlement of Kent Island, years before Lord Baltimore landed at St. Marys? How many know of the old flourishing Providence Town on the north bank of the Severn, years before Annapolis was laid out, or even before it was thought of? So it is in regard to what is known as the Revolutionary War period, and when the true facts of those days are brought to their attention, they are astonished at the brilliancy of the record of the dear old State. Taught from the school books published in the North, their young brains have been crammed with pictures of the Boston Tea Party, and full descriptions, page after page; but the far bolder action of the young patriots of what is now upper Howard County and the section of Montgomery County joining it, when they forced the burning in broad daylight of the brig Peggy Stewart and her cargo of tea, by its owner in Annapolis harbor, comes to them now from the almost oblivion of the past, with such brilliancy as to force wonder. The go-ahead States of the thirteen original colonies, have long since published their old records and received the benefit from the same, but those of Maryland, or large numbers of them, are to be found scattered over the country, and in fact there rests in the custody of a certain institution of Baltimore City, a large collection of valuable revolutionary documents, that causes the searcher after truth to wonder how such State property could ever become private. When the bronze tablet that marks the site of Old Congress Hall or as known in "ye olden days," Jacob Fites' Tavern, at the corner of Baltimore and Sharp Streets was placed, one heard on all sides the remark, "Why I never knew the Continental Congress met in Baltimore." And yet within its walls during the winter of 1776 and 1777, when the Congress had fled from Philadelphia, was enacted the legislation that gave to George Washington the extraordinary power that made possible the success of the army, and gave liberty to the people.
