Changed lines 8-9 from:
September 24, 1779 - this date hallmarks the time and hallowed ground where lie the true relics and sun-bleached skulls of the American Military Pack horses of the armies of Major-General John Sullivan. These peaceful servants of General Sullivan and his officers, with about 5000 "ragged rebels" (as expressed by King George III) brought forth a gallantry in the American Revolutionary War's western campaign against the Six Nations of Indians (Iroquois).

Changed lines 12-13 from:
A few years later, the skulls of the horses were arrayed along the trail in defiant fashion by a few returning Indians, as a gesture that the same fate would be met by any settler, should he attempt to homestead on this location. The first settlers, reading these Indian signs, promptly built their homes on the spot. The Town and Village of Horseheads rose in tribute to glorify the event. This location, first known as "The Valley of Horses Heads" was later changed to Horseheads, New York.
