By land or sea from the town to-night,
Hang a lantern aloft in the belfry arch
Of the North Church tower as a signal light,--
One if by land, and two if by sea;
And I on the opposite shore will be,
Ready to ride and spread the alarm
Through every Middlesex village and farm,
For the country folk to be up and to arm."

teacher who was insane. Then we suddenly realised the principle of 'work done' whose point had
escaped us before: if the object doesn't move, there's no 'work done!! We progressed fast under our

Researchers Charles Buffum and Craig Harger say that the destruction of the USS Revenge changed the course of history. After the ship sank, the Navy demoted Oliver Perry, the ship's commander. Because of this demotion,
Perry was denied another high seas command. Instead, he was assigned to the Great Lakes during the War of
1812. Perry assembled and commanded a small American naval force. In the 1813 Battle of Lake Erie, with two
battleships and 500 men, he defeated the British and retained control of the Great Lakes. After the battle, Perry
was promoted to captain and awarded a medal by Congress. Buffum and Harger assert that ultimately the
shipwreck of the USS Revenge played a direct role in shaping U.S. history and Perry's career.

The wreck of the USS Revenge proved to be
