Forgotten riders who rode with Paul Revere
The piece recalls William Dawes Jr and Dr. Samuel Prescott sharing the April 1775 alarm ride with Revere. Dawes followed a southern route to Lexington and Concord while Prescott joined midway at a Concord road crossing. Dawes' later recognition came via public campaigns and 1920s observances, while Prescott remained largely overlooked despite aiding the alarm and surviving the night.
