The real midnight rider wasn't Paul Revere it was actually 25-year-old
mail carrier named Israel Bissel. He rode some 400 miles in 5 days. He
alerted local militias that a British Force was marching on Lexington
& Concord.
Another rider was a 16-year-old girl named Sibyl
Ludington, who rode more than 40 miles in 6 hours and called out any
army of patriots to halt a British advance at Danbury, Connecticut. Paul
Revere's mission was to warn rebel leader Samuel Adams and John Hancock
that British soldiers were on the way to arrest them. Paul Revere never
saw the signal and he wasn;t the only midnight rider.
