If  by land one, two if by sea, this means that if the British come by land they hang one lantern, and if by sea two.

Not all the riders made it to Concord, in fact Samuel Prescott was the only one who did!

It’s a fact that Paul Revere was a silversmith by trade, and sometimes worked as an amateur dentist.

He being Paul Revere was captured just outside of Lexington that night.

The regulars are coming were the most important words said during the Midnight Ride.

 

Revere is not the only midnight rider who set out to warn that the regulars are coming.

In fact Samuel Prescott was the one who really made it to Concord.

During the midnight ride the locations passed were Boston, Lexington, and Concord.

Every rider involved was Paul Revere, Samuel Prescott, and William Dawes.

Martin Luther King Jr, or MLK, is a person who helped get equal rights for African Americans but in a peaceful way. For that reason we celebrate him and some people do things in his honor. So when you get that day off of school or work for MLK day, think of it as a day on, a day to celebrate him and do good. There are many ways to have a “day on”, for example you can simply clean up a local beach if you have one. You could even just simply help a neighbor clean their yard or their house. You could even clean your street if it has trash on it. Like I said there are endless ways so just remember to try to make it a day on instead of a day off. MLK fought for his freedom and gave it to some people and now everyone, I would say that is a good man. He is also a good reminder that fighting for freedom doesn’t have to include violence instead it can be peaceful. Everyone deserves respect so you can thank MLK for getting everyone the respect they deserve and make it a day on.
