SUMMARY:The Dramatic Story of an Artillery  Commander at Bunker Hill  1776
DESCRIPTION:Illustrated talk about how an artillery commander from Marblehead defied his superior officers at the Battle of Bunker Hill on June 17\, 1775\, by leading his cannon company into the thick of the fray\, rather than retreating\, and dragging the only American field-piece down off the hill as the American forces retreated.  That would prove to be the only American cannon in that battle that was not captured by the enemy.  Afterward\, however\, the Marbleheader\, Captain Samuel Russel Trevett\, was falsely accused of his superior officer’s failures. Though he was exonerated soon after\, he would instead join his many townsmen as a Captain of privateer vessels through the war’s end in 1782.
