Paul Revere's "Midnight Ride" actually began between 9 and 10 p.m. on the night of April 18, 1775, when Revere was told by lantern signal the British troops were coming in small boats from Boston to arrest John Adams and John Hancock (hence the expression "One if by land; two if by sea") . Revere's role was to warn them and to alert colonial militias in nearby towns.
Riding through present-day Somerville, Arlington, and Medford, Revere warned his fellow citizens of the British advance, spurring others to also deliver warnings. By the end of the night there were some 40 riders warning the local citizenry 'the British are coming!"
