Description: The Bedford Flag is the oldest known flag in the United States. The flag is commonly believed to be the inspiration for the first stanza in Ralph Waldo Emerson's Concord Hymn which opens: By the rude bridge that arched the flood, their flag to April's breeze unfurled... The flag bears the Latin motto Vince Aut Morire ("Conquer Or Die"). This is similar to the Vincere Vel Mori mottos of the Scottish Clan Macdowall and Clan Maclaine of Lochbuie.
