Paul Revere rode about 21 miles on his ride made famous by Longfellow.

Israel Bissell rode for four days and six hours covering the 345 miles from Watertown, Massachusetts to Philadelphia raising the alarm.

Looks like good press gets you remembered.

What i was impressed with was the militia response...

They just kept coming.

There was plenty of “pent up demand”.
