Cornwallis in Hillsborough!





The weather was perfect for the Revolutionary War re-enactors to put on a little demonstration. Apparently, Cornwallis camped in Hillsborough for a few days in February of 1781. So, the Rev. War buffs use that time to do their thing. It wasn't a big deal, but it was interesting. They had typical camp items, guns, food, etc. Then they put on a short exhibition of marching and firing the muskets. You can see what Lily thinks of the muskets! The scream you hear in the video isn't Lily, but she probably agrees with the screamer!
