    Notes 
    • 264: As soon as the news of the battle of Lexington, April 19th, 1775, reached Concord, Capt. Abiel Chandler raised a volunteer company of thirty-six men, and marched to Cambridge, where they remained a fortnight. The names of this patriotic band, and of others from Concord who hastened to the scene of blook, cannot now be ascertained. But at a meeting, December 5th, it was voted, "That Capt. Abiel Chandler and those that went under him to Cambridge, upon the alarm in April last, be paid by the parish, at the same rate that other troops in this colony are paid." [2]
