The true story of Paul Revere’s ride:
He rode to the first house.
“Wake up, the redcoats are coming!”
The man of the house rushes out to the stable to prepare.
Revere spurs his horse on.
Revere rides to the second house.
“Wake up, the redcoats are coming!”
The man of the house looks out the window and says: “I’ll get my musket.”
Revere spurs his horse on.
Revere rides to the third house.
“Wake up, the redcoats are coming!”
A woman opens the door and replies: “But my husband’s not here.”
“Well what about your sons?” asks Revere.
She answers: “They’re all gone too.”
Revere thinks.
“Woah Dobbin!”
