'''Paul Revere''' (1734-1818) was a silversmith in colonial America who was very active in [[Boston]]-area revolutionary groups such as the [[Sons of Liberty]]. He is famous for riding from Boston to Lexington, [[Massachusetts]] with William Dawes on the night of April  18, 1775 to warn the [[minutemen]] that [[British]] troops led by General Thomas Gage were invading.  Revere was captured before he could reach [[Concord]], but managed to escape.  His midnight ride was immortalized by a poem by [[Henry Wadsworth Longfellow]].<ref>[http://darter.ocps.net/classroom/revolution/revere.htm Paul Revere]</ref>
