Revolutionary war hero Nathan Hale taught at a school house located here (circa 1774-1775 CE) before going to fight in the American Revolution. While fighting he spied on the British for General Washington, he was captured and sentenced to be executed. His last words were "I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country."
