Etching of the British Retreating from Concord     

This etching, originally engraved by James Smillie, depicts a dramatized version of the British retreat from their defeat at the Battle of Lexington and Concord. Although there were no confirmed Groton soldiers at this initial Battle, Captain Henry Farwell and his company of 55 minutemen marched down Battle Road towards the fighting, eventually catching up to the British Regulars at Bloody Angle and firing on them there.
