About Me
Paragraph 1

As you know I was born on December 21, 1734. I lived in Boston. I was the third of my many siblings. I went to North Boston righting school until i was 13. Right after that I became an apprentice of my father a silversmith. I met one of my good friends, Jonathan Mayhew at the West Church. When my father died I was too young to take over the shop so I turned to the army. I was a second lieutenant, I joined because I wanted to get consistent pay for my family and there was weak economy.

Paragraph 2

I married my wife Sarah Orne and had 8 children with her. My business wasn't going so well when the Stamp Act was released. I am a patriot so I was not very happy about this. I started looking for new jobs, I settled with dentistry for a while. I joined the Sons Of Liberty, although I didn’t participate in everything. We weren’t happy about the taxes so, we made the Townsend Acts. My wife died and I married Rachel and had 8 more children. I joined the Sons of Liberty in the Boston Tea Party. I was worried what the King was going to do in the war.

Paragraph 3 I helped contribute regularly to the government. The government heard about British troop movements and that they had hidden weapons in Concord, where I was. Leaders in Washington asked me to make sure I warn colonists when the British got there. I rode my horse all the way through the town. I didn’t say “The British are coming.” I was told to be quiet and secret. I met Samuel Adams and John Hancock and told them about it. Apparently I saved colonists from a important battle. Go Me!
