The Battle of Boston Neck.

On this day in 1775,

Continental volunteers led by Maj. Benjamin Tupper and Capt. John Crane attack a British outpost routing the British guard, and burned down the guardhouse and the Battle of Boston Neck.

And in 1779,

Maj. Gen. Clinton's raiders burn the entire town of Fairfield, CT to the ground.
