Joseph Warren (1741 - 1775) was a soldier and leader in the American Revolution, who on April 18, 1775, sent Paul Revere and William Dawes to Lexington and Concord on their famous ride to warn local patriots that British troops were being sent against them. Warren was a member of the first three provincial congresses held in Massachusetts (1774–75), president of the third, and an active member of the Massachusetts Committee of Public Safety. On June 14, 1775, he was chosen a major general, but three days later he was killed in the Battle of Bunker Hill (Breed’s Hill). (from Britannica) Author Richard Frothingham Jr. (1812 – 1880) was a Massachusetts historian, journalist, and politician. Frothingham was a proprietor and managing editor of The Boston Post. He served in the Massachusetts House of Representatives, and as mayor of Charlestown, Massachusetts.
