With the Fourth of July right around the corner, join us on Mount Royal Avenue at the Maryland Line Monument. It honors the soldiers of the Maryland Line, who during the Battle of Long Island, held off a British attack long enough for George Washington and the Continental Army to escape to fight another day. Thanks for watching and we'll see you soon with another video.

This is our series called "Five Minute Histories." Every week, we’ll record a short video about a different historic place in Baltimore and post it on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.
