On This Day in History...



...In 1775, Patrick Henry gave the speech that made him famous to the Virginia House of Burgesses, concluding, "I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"



Incidentally, I wonder what Mr. Henry would think today of the institution that bears his name? I've wondered that a lot, actually, over the last several years.
