Moren grumbled something and grabbed a piece of paper, writing in his green Sharpie again.

1. Founding father and propagandist of the American Revolution Thomas Paine wrote a book called ‘The Age of Reason” arguing against Christianity. He went from a revolutionary hero to reviled, 6 people attended his funeral and 100 years later Teddy Roosevelt called him a “filthy little atheist”. 2. During the American Revolution, many untrained American soldiers used bayonets to cook meat over fires rather than using them for close combat. After receiving bayonet combat training from a Prussian general, the American Army was able to win an entire battle without firing a shot. 3. The British tried to surrender to the French at the end of the American Revolution. French General Rochambeau refused British Brigadier General O’Hara’s sword and instead pointed him towards George Washington to offer surrender. 4. A teenage colonist girl was captured in 1755 by the Shawnee, given to the Seneca, fully assimilated into their culture, helped supply the Mohawks against the rebels in the American Revolution, helped negotiate for the Seneca after their defeat, and lived to the age of 90 with the Seneca Nation. 5. George Washington and Samuel Adams, both considered to be leaders of the American Revolution, refused to join a political party because they believed the idea would divide Congress. They’re instead only identified as Whigs, a common name for those supporting independence.

He bit his lip, staring at what he wrote. Obviously, he wasn’t done.
