Yep... that's H.W. Longfellow's take on the event. But good old Paul only rode 19 miles on his famous midnight ride. Israel Bissel rode 345 miles for four and half days, non-stop, to spread the word.

“Listen my children and you shall whistle,
At the amazing ride of Israel Bissell."

Yeah... not quite as catchy.
