Old North Church
This is the oldest church edifice in Boston. It was built in 1723. The signal lanterns of Paul Revere displayed in the steeple of this church on April 18, 1775, warned the people of the march of the British to Concord and Lexington. Don’t fail to ask the sexton to show you the old communion chest recently found, and the statues which are reported to have been seized from a French ship, bound for a monastery in Montreal. Illustrated history of the church and admission to the steeple will cost fifty cents. Otherwise, admission is free from 9 a. m. until 5 p. m. Regular services Sunday.
