    This is a monument in southwest Massachusetts which commemorates an event, but I smudged out its name.  Without looking this up, can you tell me what this event was?

    The last battle of Shays Rebellion.This rebellion of debtor farmers in western Massachusetts convinced many political leaders in the early American Republic of the need for a stronger federal government than was provided for in the Articles of Confederation.
