Kayleigh’s one lantern on the shelf behind her is interesting. Thanks to Number and CJ for illuminating tweets.

Q dropped at least four posts that mention MB, one shows a Church steeple, reminiscent to the Old North Church steeple featured in the famous Paul Revere Midnight Ride. Not certain if church in photo was verified as Old North.

Q Drop # 3988 has the Old North Church Steeple

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_North_Church
Excerpt
The Old North Church was built in December 1723, inspired by the works of Christopher Wren, the British architect who was responsible for rebuilding London after the Great Fire. Timothy Cutler was the founding rector after serving as third rector of Yale College from 1719 to 1722.
In April 1775, Paul Revere told three Boston patriots to hang two lanterns in the steeple. These men were the church sexton Robert Newman and Captain John Pulling—the two of whom historian David Hackett Fischer suggests each carried one lantern up to the steeple—as well as Thomas Bernard, who stood watch for British troops outside the church. The lanterns were displayed to send a warning to Charlestown patriots across the Charles River about the movements of the British Army.

Excerpt
The Lantern Ceremony celebrates the events of the night of April 18, 1775, when two signal lanterns were hung in the Old North Church steeple, alerting Paul Revere that the British were invading by sea and launching the American Revolution.

It was ascertained that the church steeple with lanterns was the Old North Church.
