Isaac Davis of Acton, who was killed in the engagement, are considered ; with some reasons why a proposed monument should not be placed over the two British soldiers who were buried in one grave at the North Bridge ; and some notice of the agitated question as to the place where the first resistance was made ; accompanied by the testimony of two of the surviving members of Capt. Davis's company and of his surviving widow ; and a map of the scene of the Concord fight, as it was at the time."
