Redding knew the man before the legend did.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat winter of 1778-79 Israel Putnam commanded from Redding. Three camps, the Danbury stores behind him, the Sound below, and a division unpaid and close to walking home - he talked the Connecticut brigades back to their huts on the morning of December 30 with a speech and one confined ringleader. From these camps he pushed patrols down to the coast, to Norwalk, Stamford and Horseneck, and it was on that line, in late February, that a British column caught him at Greenwich with a handful of men. What he did next is the ride everyone tells. What people forget is where he rode home to: here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe park at his winter camp keeps a bronze of that moment, by Anna Hyatt Huntington, on the visitor-center lawn. This isn't that one. It's ours - an original figure drawn for this ornament, rendered in old bronze, the general with his sword raised and, by some readings, a message for the men at the top of the stairs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe art is original and printed on a three-inch faceted crystal glass round, white-backed so the bronze reads warm and solid against a lit tree. The faceted edge catches light from every angle.
