It comes in two scents, White Tea and Fig or Ocean Mist and Moss, and pairs with the ornament of the same design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the winter of 1778 to 1779 Israel Putnam commanded from Redding: three camps, the Danbury stores behind him, the Sound below, and a division unpaid and close to walking home. On the morning of December 30 he talked the Connecticut brigades back to their huts with a speech and one confined ringleader.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom these camps he pushed patrols down to the coast, and in late February 1779 a British column caught him at Greenwich with a handful of men. The ride that followed is the one everyone tells; what people forget is that he rode home to Redding. The park at his winter camp keeps a bronze of that moment by Anna Hyatt Huntington. This figure is not that one. It is an original drawn for Merlin Classics, sword up and hat on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoy candle, 11 oz, 100 percent soybean wax, with double cotton-cored wicks and roughly 65 hours of burn, in White Tea and Fig or Ocean Mist and Moss.
