Dawes Ride and Dawn of the Patriot Legacy
A Norwood era tribute recalls William Dawes and Paul Revere as they carried warnings before April 19 1775. Dawes and Revere rode to Lexington and Concord outmaneuvering British patrols. Dawes helped save cannons at the watchful Cambridge area and later joined Continental troops at Boston. Dawes died February 25 1799 buried in King's Chapel. Revere’s fame grows in local lore.
