Why was paul revere going to do the midnight ride?

The fable of Revere comes from a Longfellow poem written in 1861 and in reality he didn't ride through the night yelling about the British coming. Longfellow wrote his poem on the eve of the civil war to remind people of the nation's history. Somehow the poem became part of history and was put into history books as fact. Revere never finished the ride, his horse was taken away and he was held by a British patrol, but thanks to Longfellow we all know who he is. He billed Congress for the ride and the cost of the horse since it was taken from him and it didn't belong to him. It was borrowed from Rev. John Larkin and was named Brown Beauty. Larkin refers to it in his will. His one big contribution was the picture on a flier after the Boston Massacre showing colonist getting shot by the British. This was pure propaganda and was used to incite discontent between the colonist and the British troops.


Did Samuel Adams make beer?

Many people brewed their own beer in the 1700s. I don't know whether there is specific documentation on whether Sam Adams actually did so, but is is certainly likely. However, it is most unlikely that except for both being in the Boston area, there is any other connection between today's Sam Adams beer and the Revolutionary war patriot and possible eighteenth century brewmaster.
