Its pretty obvious that the british seemed to have an idea of what was up and Revere simply warned them that it was too late to stop the gathering of the militia.
Yes that is what I understood from his summary.
Even with a gun to his head. Makes you wonder what would have happened if he hadn’t been riding and warning everyone along the way. Interesting how they all responded with their guns ready to defend their homes.
Do you know if the threat the Brit made that he had 500 men coming was true.
