Paul Revere actively participated in the work of 'Sons of Liberty' under the guidance of Dr. Joseph Warren. The stone engravings by Paul Revere done after the 'Boston Massacre' became famous amongst the masses. Revere was present at the famous 'Boston Tea Party', after which he became a messenger for the 'Boston Committee of Public Safety'. He often relayed important messages between Philadelphia and New York. The famous "Midnight Ride", for which Paul Revere was glorified, occurred at the midnight of 18th April. On the night of 18th April, Paul Revere and William Dawes were assigned the task of warning Samuel Adams and John Hancock, about the British Army's march towards Lexington. Paul Revere's ride till Lexington went on smoothly and he accomplished the task of informing Samuel Adams and others; however, he couldn't complete the ride to Concord as he was caught by the British soldiers. The British soldiers who captured Revere freed him as they had to hurry towards the Lexington Meeting-house after hearing gunfire.
