No, from Fischer's
Paul Revere's Ride:
"A woman came to an upper window, and [Bentley and Richardson] whispered an urgent request. There was a quick rustle of petticoats in the darkness and a set of woolen undergarments came floating down to the street. The lady's undergarments, still warm from the body that had worn them, were wrapped snugly around the oars."
p. 104, the corresponding footnote identifying the lady as an ancestor of John R. Adan.
