| Everyone's heard of Paul Revere, George Washington,
Benedict Arnold, and Peyton Randolph, but who knows about Molly

an apron. Some of these women fought up close. One contributed from
thousands of miles away. But, if it weren't for these women, we
might be singing My country Tis of Thee with its original lyrics.
