Why was Sybil ludington loyal?

Answer 1

Sybil Ludington (1761-1839) was "the female Paul Revere" -- although only 16, she spread word to the colonial militias of British Army movements in the third year of the Revolutionary War. She rode to Putnam County, NY and Danbury CT on the night April 26-27, 1777. Hers was the longest ride of any of the riders, who included William Dawes and Paul Revere (1775) and Jack Jouett (1781).

Sybil Ludington's ride became necessary because the British had ransacked Danbury destroying militia weapons (the city was a patriot supply center). They were then headed for Fredericksburg NY. A young soldier arrived at Sybil father's house: Colonel Ludington was in charge of the local volunteers . As someone had to go at once to gather the troops, Sybil jumped at the chance . She rode to many villages , informing everyone what was happening . Thanks to her bravery, the patriots were able to force the British back to Long Island Sound in the Battle of Ridgefield.
