the true midnight ride

the man who road through mass at night 
but there was another who missed the spotlight 
Revere and Dawes road off to warn the sons of liberty 
Sam Adams and john Hancock at risk of capture 
were saved by the bravery of the nigh riders 
a rest they took for one hour to tend the horses soar and bleeding 
to concord they road warning the towns of the oncoming british 
with two lights in the tower they were coming by sea 
they picked up t third member of the ride 
a Dr. Prescott made the duo a trio and of they road 
but being stopped before lexington all with different results 
Prescott was free to go, Dawes was thrown by his horse 
he limped to lexington and Reveres ride was over 
he stood in his place before 10 british soldiers 
they had done there job the message was out 
they finished the journey and the fighting had begun
 yet only the one in the clink got the fame

to me the act that was the tipping point that started the war was the boston massacer. i think this because without the massacer the colonist wouldnt have been as fired up as they were when they were just being taxed but now that blood was spilt... it was on!!

event summary

Royal proclamation : the proclamation the king passed in the 1700s. this proclamation was made to stop the colonists movement west of the appalachians. the english colonies didn’t care and continued to expand west. 
The stamp act : the british needed money to pay off debt so they raised taxes and and put taxes on many more items. the colonist didn’t like this “who would” so they stopped buying the goods from the british 
Boston massacre : the british were really annoying the british so the colonists protested.  in 1768 the protesters through snowballs at british officials when the british got angry they fired back and killed (well i herd 11 in this group but then 5 from another so im not really sure how many ahaha) .
Boston tea party : angry bostonians went aboard a british trading ship this boat contained british tea the men through the tea into the harbor all of the men were never caught because they dressed up as native americans.
intolerable acts : when parlement herd about the tea party they were wicked mad and cracked down on rules . they even shut down boston harbor the same harbor used in the boston tea party. then paul revere took off to go get people to fight cause very one knew something was going down. 
First continental congress : was like a group therapy session in which they talked about the influence of the british parliment on the british colonies. they also dealt with the affects of the intolerable act.  this was were ideas of independence were tossed around 
I though the project was kinda unsuccessful . only because we spend so much time learning about our event that didnt get as much out of the other events as we did ours. also people talk really fast can we pleas slow it down next time that would make it like that much better
