Paul Revere's Ride

This famous ride is when Paul warns the patriots that the British are attacking. There is a poem written about the ride by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. On April 18, 1775, Paul Revere tells a friend to prepare signal lanterns in the Old North Church to inform him if the British will attack by land or sea. He would await the signal across the river in Charlestown and be ready to spread the alarm throughout Middlesex County, Massachusetts. The unnamed friend then climbs up the steeple and sets up two signal lanterns, informing Revere that the British are coming by sea. Paul rides his horse through Medford, Lexington, and Concord to warn the patriots.
