What was the outcome of the battle that Paul Revere was in?

Revere didn't fight in a battle. He was to warn the colonials about the British army going to Concord to collect the arms and powder that they had hidden there. He left Boston on the night of April 18, 1775, but wasn't able to finish his ride to Concord because he was stopped by a British patrol not far outside of Lexington. His horse was taken from him and he was held. The ride was finished by a man named Dawes and another named Dr. Prescott. The reason we know about Revere is because in 1861 on the eve of the civil war Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote a poem called "The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere". The poem was not written to tell about a historical fact, but to remind people that they come from a common history. Later, the poem was used to teach history and placed in history books as a factual account of a event.
