The famous midnight ride to warn the colonists of the British approach was made by Paul Revere, along with William Dawes and Samuel Prescott. While Revere and Dawes set out on April 18, 1775, it was Prescott who completed the ride after they were intercepted.

How did Paul revere warn the colonists that the British were coming?
According to legend, he said "The British are coming, The British are coming," but modern historians have questioned whether that is actually how he phrased it. For one thing, there was no United States yet, so the colonists were in fact British. For another, Revere was making a ride in secret to warn the colonists to be ready, and it is doubtful he shouted out any warnings that might attract unnecessary attention. Thus, while he certainly did warn the colonists, it is doubtful he said "The British are coming."
