Revolutionary War Cannon Resurfaces | Burlington News
They pulled a 250-year-old Revolutionary War cannon from Lake Champlain—once part of Benedict Arnold’s gunboat New York, which blew up during the 1776 Battle of Valcour, killing Lieutenant Thomas Rogers.

This find closes a 30-year search, completing a hauntingly vivid chapter of history resurfacing from the depths. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
