Sadsbury Friends Meeting House, 1089 Simmontown Road, Gap, will host a presentation by Harold Finigan on the history of Fort Mifflin on Saturday, Oct. 11.

Finigan led the restoration of historic Fort Mifflin near Philadelphia. Fort Mifflin's valiant 1777 defense during the Revolutionary War delayed the British from resupplying in Philadelphia. Finigan will discuss how this action gave the Continental Army, under Gen. George Washington, time to retreat to Valley Forge for the winter, regroup, and become an effective fighting force. This critical delay is seen by many historians as a turning point that saved the American Revolution.

The program is free of charge. For more information, visit http://www.sadsburyfriendsmeeting.org, call 484-985-0454, or email cwebster3615@comcast.net.
