The cry rang out amidst the bursts of canon fire; over the deafening pop-pop-pop of Brown Bess, the Mexican Cavalry’s standard firearm; and the moans of injured men whose last moments were spent on the hallowed church ground.
The Battle of the Alamo in 1836 is indubitably the most remembered fight of the Texan struggle for Independence. The Duke’s (a.k.a. John Wayne) portrayal of Davy Crockett in the 1960 film, The Alamo, only further illuminated the struggle the Texians faced as they strove to free themselves from Mexico’s tightly clenched grip.
But their struggle will be remembered for all of time—if not because of the rallying cry that echoed all throughout America, than because of the large number of spirits which still haunt its bloodshed grounds.
This is the Alamo, which remains till this day, one of San Antonio’s Most Haunted locations.

<span>Erie Canal (from Lake Erie) is <span>a canal connecting America to the
western territories which was built
from 1817 to 1825 under the
supervision of DeWitt Clinton often called as “Clinton’s folly”. Some of its
effects to the United States are the following: </span></span>
<span><span>·
</span>It decreases importing and exporting products in
which it could ship millions of goods annually.</span>
<span><span>·
</span>It had connected the United States’ great lake <span>the Atlantic
Ocean.</span></span>
<span><span>·
</span>It made new York City as the busiest port overnight.
</span>
<span><span>·
</span>At its popular time, 50,000 people (or more) depended
on the canal for their livelihood making boat houses for transactions.</span>
<span><span>·
</span><span>It was the first public infrastructure to extend
help to hospitals and institutions.</span></span>
The middle three are good answers. The top and the bottom are not really important.
Most scholars today believe that Jefferson derived the most famous ideas in the Declaration of Independence from the writings of English philosopher John Locke. Locke wrote his Second Treatise of Government in 1689 at the time of England's Glorious Revolution, which overthrew the rule of James II.
