Who said hang one for land and two for sea and i on the opposite shore will be this courier said?
This line is from the 1861 Longfellow poem the Midnight Ride of Paul Revere. " listen my children and you shall hear the midnight ride of Paul Revere. On the eighteenth of April in Seventyfive. Hardly a man is now alive who remembers that famous day and year. He said to his friend if the British March by land or sea from town tonight hang a lantern in the belfry arch of the North Church tower as a signal light. One if by land and two if by sea. And I on the opposite shore will be." One reason he states in the first lines of the poem that hardly a man remembers is because the poem was written almost a 100 years AFTER the event. By the way Revere didn't finish the ride because he ran into a British patrol and Prescott did get the job done.
