PAUL REVERE STARTS HIS 'MIDNIGHT RIDE' OF WARNING: Massachusetts
silversmith Paul Revere saddles up and heads off into the night to
alert his fellow colonial militia members of the British force's
imminent arrival and their intent to commandeer the American's arms
as well as to arrest patriots Samuel Adams and John Hancock.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote of the famous ride ... in 1860

Listen, my children, and you shall hear
Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere,
On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-Five:
Hardly a man is now alive
Who remembers that famous day and year.

He said to his friend, "If the British march
By land or sea from the town to-night,
Hang a lantern aloft in the belfry-arch
Of the North-Church-tower, as a signal-light,-
One if by land, and two if by sea;
And I on the opposite shore will be,
Ready to ride and spread the alarm
Through every Middlesex village and farm,
For the country-folk to be up and to arm."
