This is a legend concerning Revere. He did begin the ride but was stopped by a British patrol and arrested, so he did not finish it. Instead a man named Dawes saw what was happening and went on to Concord. The idea about Revere came from an 1861 poem written by Longfellow to remind people of thier history before the Civil War.
