From the pen of Henry Robie, Patriot of Hampton Falls...
Good neighbors, Though I have long since laid down my earthly labors, it heartens me to know that the memory of those who answered Liberty's call has not faded. We gathered once more at Old Westview Cemetery to honor the Patriots who helped secure the blessings of freedom for generations yet unborn.

If you were unable to attend our Echoes of 1776 ceremony, I invite you to witness the remembrance through this video. May it stir in you the same gratitude and devotion that inspired us 250 years ago.
"Remember us not with sorrow, but with purpose."

Good friends,

I am Henry Robie, once a farmer of Hampton Falls and a humble Patriot who answered the call when liberty was in peril. We were ordinary neighbors—fathers, sons, brothers, and friends—who left our homes believing that freedom was a treasure worth every sacrifice.

Though my voice belongs to another century, I ask you to join us once more.

Come to Old Westview Cemetery on Saturday, July 25, at 10:00 a.m. as our community gathers for Echoes of 1776: Honoring Our Patriots. Stand among the resting places of those who served, hear the stirring notes of Highland Cathedral, witness the graveside honors, and remember the courage of Hampton Falls men whose devotion helped secure the blessings we enjoy today.

We sought no monuments—only that future generations would remember the price of liberty and cherish it well.

If you would honor our memory, walk among us for a little while. Bring your family, your children, and your gratitude. Let them hear the stories carried by these ancient stones, so that the echoes of 1776 may never fade from Hampton Falls.

Your faithful servant,
Henry Robie
Patriot of Hampton Falls, New Hampshire
