HI Charlet

 

[Eugene]

Hello gang.

 

[Lucy]

Hey Eugene....I overheard some people in my dorm planning to steal stuff in the bar and I was afraid that you wouldn't get it back. So I hid it.

 

[Eugene]

I thought it looked a bit sparse here. Does this mean Chase's Hibiki is safe from your dorm mates?

 

[Lucy]

no it's not

 

[Lucy]

They wanted his scotch too lol

 

[Jacqueline Hyde]

I’m not a historian but my understanding is the same as Claire’s - it was the Longfellow poem that made Revere famous over Dawes or Prescott (or, indeed, Sybil Ludington or her father)

 

[Lucy]

hehe

 

[Jacqueline Hyde]

To be fair, he was also the one who hung the lanterns in the church steeple in the famous “one if by land, two if by sea” arrangement. I think.

 

[Lucy]

yeah I was thinking about that too when I talked to Julie

 

[Jacqueline Hyde]

As for why Longfellow chose to commemorate him instead of another - who knows. It could very well have been the sound of the name.

 

[Lucy]

Julie was talking about that it could be the woman's status at the time. In general.
