TV series Ellery Queen Jim Hutton: Adventure of the Disappearing Dagger
In this episode a lenghty shot is made of a plaque which reads:
Connecticut State Historical
Society Marker N°609
ELMSFORD, CONNECTICUT
Village Green
On this site May 12. 1778, a gallant
band of colonial militia, led by
Col.Nathan 'Old Ironbeak' Shay,
were massacred by a platoon of
British regulars and sixty three
Pottawomotock Indians.
It doesn't connect to the plot and Google did not find any of these 'facts' or 'names'... An inside joke then?
Any advice or comment is welcome!
