Paul revere was not a unique hero before the battle of lexington. Paul revere was a silversmith and ardent colonialist. He took part in the Boston Tea Party and was principal rider for Boston's Committee of Safety. In that role, he devised a system of lanterns to warn the minutemen of a British invasion, setting up his famous ride on April 18, 1775. “Paul revere is impatiently waiting for the signal. When he sees the first signal he jumps on his horse but he impatiently waits to yet see the second signal light up.”This quote is from Paul revere ride poem”. This happend because the colonist didnt want a king or queen in there colony.Paul and his friends made this plan up to warn the colonist british are coming he is going to the opposite side
