﻿1
00:00:06,467 --> 00:00:12,160
When the town hall meeting ended, people returned to their homes.

2
00:00:12,161 --> 00:00:17,139
Paul Revere and John Adams stayed behind speaking together.

3
00:00:17,140 --> 00:00:20,228
The children stayed close by.

4
00:00:20,229 --> 00:00:24,984
"Paul, you know what to do," said John Adams.

5
00:00:24,985 --> 00:00:28,286
Revere nodded and put on his hat.

6
00:00:28,287 --> 00:00:30,324
"It was nice meeting you,"

7
00:00:30,325 --> 00:00:34,002
he said to the children and then left.

8
00:00:34,003 --> 00:00:37,336
"Where is he going?" asked Vinnie.

9
00:00:37,337 --> 00:00:43,872
"Mr. Revere takes important messages to New York and Philadelphia," explained Will.

10
00:00:43,873 --> 00:00:46,871
"That's what I want to do someday."

11
00:00:46,872 --> 00:00:50,862
"To be a messenger?" asked Vinnie.

12
00:00:50,863 --> 00:00:56,145
"To be one of the Sons of Liberty," said Will seriously.

13
00:00:56,146 --> 00:01:00,223
"Good-bye, children," said John Adams.

14
00:01:00,224 --> 00:01:04,115
"Never forget the value of freedom."

15
00:01:04,116 --> 00:01:08,450
They all shook hands, and the children left.

16
00:01:08,451 --> 00:01:13,789
As they walked down Boston's streets, the daylight was fading.

17
00:01:13,790 --> 00:01:15,200
"Come for supper.

18
00:01:15,201 --> 00:01:18,733
Mother is making meat stew," said Will.

19
00:01:18,734 --> 00:01:23,510
"You have been so kind to us," said Mandy.

20
00:01:23,511 --> 00:01:26,090
"But we should go now."

21
00:01:26,091 --> 00:01:30,157
"Where are we going?" Vinnie whispered to her.

22
00:01:30,158 --> 00:01:34,802
"Thank you for everything," said Mandy to Will.

23
00:01:34,803 --> 00:01:38,807
"Well, you know where I live," he said.

24
00:01:38,808 --> 00:01:40,497
"Visit some time.

25
00:01:40,498 --> 00:01:43,267
You can try our apple cider."

26
00:01:43,268 --> 00:01:49,092
Waving good-bye, the children watched Will disappear down the street.

27
00:01:49,093 --> 00:01:53,278
"That's just great!" Vinnie sighed.

28
00:01:53,279 --> 00:01:59,230
"Without Will, how are we supposed to find this tree?"

29
00:01:59,231 --> 00:02:02,771
He took the photo out of his pocket.

30
00:02:02,772 --> 00:02:06,127
Mandy was looking up the street.

31
00:02:06,128 --> 00:02:10,523
Two familiar figures were walking ahead of them.

32
00:02:10,524 --> 00:02:15,003
"Vinnie, let me see the photo," said Mandy.

33
00:02:15,004 --> 00:02:17,282
He showed it to her.

34
00:02:17,283 --> 00:02:21,037
The flag in the photo was glowing blue.

35
00:02:21,038 --> 00:02:23,946
"There's a big tree over there.

36
00:02:23,947 --> 00:02:27,728
It looks like this one," said Mandy.

37
00:02:27,729 --> 00:02:32,777
Mandy followed the two figures, walking just behind them.

38
00:02:32,778 --> 00:02:35,317
Vinnie followed her.

39
00:02:35,318 --> 00:02:41,492
When they got to the corner, the children noticed a sign on the nearby elm tree.

40
00:02:41,493 --> 00:02:44,987
"Can you read it?" asked Mandy.

41
00:02:44,988 --> 00:02:46,797
Vinnie shook his head.

42
00:02:46,798 --> 00:02:49,485
"It's too far."

43
00:02:49,486 --> 00:02:53,200
The two figures walked into a grocery store.

44
00:02:53,201 --> 00:02:57,869
Vinnie ran up to the tree and quickly read the sign.

45
00:02:57,870 --> 00:03:00,835
Then he ran back to Mandy.

46
00:03:00,836 --> 00:03:06,300
"It says, 'The Tree of Liberty'," he gasped.

47
00:03:06,301 --> 00:03:08,991
The two men reappeared.

48
00:03:08,992 --> 00:03:13,095
One of the men was Mr. Keith, the grocer.

49
00:03:13,096 --> 00:03:15,652
He held a long pole.

50
00:03:15,653 --> 00:03:20,339
The other man carried a red and white, bundled cloth.

51
00:03:20,340 --> 00:03:25,126
At the tree, they tied the cloth at the top of the pole;

52
00:03:25,127 --> 00:03:27,342
it was a flag!

53
00:03:27,343 --> 00:03:33,680
They lifted the flag high enough in the tree so it stuck out from the branches.

54
00:03:33,681 --> 00:03:38,156
The grocer said, "The Sons of Liberty will meet tonight."

55
00:03:38,157 --> 00:03:42,316
"Action will be taken," said the other man.

56
00:03:42,317 --> 00:03:44,779
Then he turned around.

57
00:03:44,780 --> 00:03:47,249
It was John Hancock.

58
00:03:47,250 --> 00:03:52,571
"He's been released!" Mandy nearly shouted.

59
00:03:52,572 --> 00:03:57,502
"Mandy! The photo!" Vinnie pointed to the picture.

60
00:03:57,503 --> 00:04:02,942
Sticking out of the tree, the red and white flag was glowing brightly.

61
00:04:02,943 --> 00:04:05,889
It was time to go home.

62
00:04:05,890 --> 00:04:14,866
The children's eyes closed as they fell into the familiar dark tunnel.
