First of all, the colonists were forewarned by either Gen. Gate's wife, or her brothers. They had seen Dartmouth's instructions to get the weapons and arrest Adams and Hancock. Being warned, as Revere knew, the weapons were already removed for the most part from Concord. On the other hand, The colonists did not know that Gates had decided not to arrest Adams and Hancock. Besides setting off the well prepared warning system, consisting of bells and warning shots, Revere's primary mission was to protect Adams and Hancock. And he did this by warning the Redcoat regulars that they should not go to Lexington. Which as it turned out was very good advice and may have prevented open hostilities from commencing that day. But being il-informed, the regulars did go to Lexington and a resulting clash that led to the full battle at Concord.Chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05238615891442189866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17669835.post-44386328844345269742011-06-07T10:38:08.570-07:002011-06-07T10:38:08.570-07:00I want to party like it's 1773!
