    Photo of the Journal of Jehiel Stewart, June 16-18, 1775, at the National Archives Museum in Washington, D.C., May 12, 2025. In his journal, Stewart noted on June 16, "this night our men went to in trenchen on Doggester [Dorchester] point," across the Charles River from Boston. It remains unknown why the militia fortified Breed's instead of Bunker Hill on the Charlestown Peninsula. Intent to remain on the defensive, Massachusetts provincial leaders only sought to contain the British, not provoke a fight. When the British awoke to find American fortifications within cannon range, they immediately mobilized for battle. (U.S. Army photo by Bernardo Fuller)
