Minutemen grabbed their guns and prepared for war

In the night of April 18, 1775

Dr Samuel Prescott joined the men along the road

Narrowing escape from the British soldiers

It was the job of Paul Revere and Dawes to warn Samuel Adams

Going fast on his horse, one reporter fail off and broke his leg

Helping out form Concord to Lexington

They used lanterns for signals

Revere went out to tell Samuel Adams and John Hancock the redcoats are coming

Issued warning was to tell John Hancock and Samuel Adams

Dawes and Revere went north to warn Samuel Adams and John Hancock about their arrest

Elizabeth Revere was Paul Reveres sister
