Harriet Elisabeth Beecher Stowe was born in Litchfield, CT.
(June 14, 1811 – July 1, 1896)

Abolitionist author Harriet Beecher Stowe’s literary classic, Uncle
Tom’s Cabin, encouraged anti-slavery efforts in the Northern
states. Her other numerous literary works include novels, letters,
articles, and travel memoirs. She received a first-class education
at a school run by her sister and later supported the Underground
Railroad and housed several fugitive slaves.

The track “Yesterday” was recorded at Abbey Road Studios immediately
following the taping of "I’m Down", and four days before McCartney’s 23rd
birthday. McCartney’s vocal and acoustic guitar, together with a string
quartet, essentially made for the first solo performance of the band.

Flag Day is celebrated on June 14. It commemorates the adoption of the flag of
the United States, which happened on June 14th.

In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation that officially established
June 14 as Flag Day; in August 1949, National Flag Day was established by an Act
of Congress. Flag Day is not an official federal holiday.

The oldest continuing Flag Day parade is in Fairfield, Washington. It began in 1909
or 1910, Fairfield has held a parade every year since.
