The Midnight Ride By: Cade On January 1, 1735 Paul Revere was born. When he was still a young boy his dad taught him to be a silversmith. At the time the British Army and the colonists were not getting along very well. So one night Paul told a man to go up into the old church and shine one lantern if the British were coming by land and to if the British were coming by sea. And when Paul saw two lanterns he rode foo into the moon light to warn everybody that the British were coming. The first people that Paul warned was John Hancock, and Samuel Adams because they had committed treason to Great Britain and king George the third by signing The Declaration Of Independence.On Paul Reveres midnight ride he warned the colonists and the minutemen and when he was on his way to Concord he was captured by British troops and Paul managed to scare the British troops and they let him go.
