Day 130, Tuesday, June 3 2025 - Boston Massachusetts - The Freedom Trail - Near the Old State House

The Boston Massacre, known in Great Britain as the Incident on King Street. On a cold March night in 1770, a beleaguered squadron of British soldiers opened fire in the square in front of this royal building, killing five individuals and wounding many others. By the next morning, leaders called the event a "bloody massacre." Six years later, shots were heard again in the square. But this time they were fired in celebration.
