A scholarly account of what happened on April 19, 1775, including the death of Jason (a son of my GGGGG Grand Uncle), can be found in Arthur Tourtellot, Lexington and Concord (W.W. Norton & Co., New York).It favors the "one more drink" version (Jason was celebrating the birth of his son); but I've also heard that Jason was actually participating in firing on the Regulars as they marched back from Concord.
