Historic New England
On October 10, 1775 Colonel Josiah Quincy peered out the windows of his third story monitor of the Quincy House and recorded the movements of British troops in Quincy Bay. He etched into a pane of glass for posterity that the Crown's appointed Governor Gage was fleeing Boston. Take a special tour of the Quincy House exploring the lead up to revolution with the first two generations of the family to live there. After the tour, raise a toast on the porch as the governor sails into the sunset with refreshments provided by Break Rock Brewing. Break Rock Brewing | Brewery & Taproom, Quincy MA
