i Smith's Newton, 341. ** Hudson's Sudbury, 374-5, and Hudson in Hurd's Middlesex County, II, 401. 46 THE BATTLE OF APRIL 19, 177S. Boston, the people were alarmed before noon by a messenger mounted on a white horse dripping with sweat, and bloody from spurring. Driving at full speed through the town he shouted : "To arms, to arms! the war has begun!" At the church the horse fell exhausted. Another was procured and the news still went on. The bell rang out the alarm, cannon were fired, and spec...ial messengers despatched to every part of the town to summon the soldiers. In a little while 110 men, under Captain Timothy Bigelow were paraded on the Green, and soon marched for Concord. They were met on the way by the intelligence of the British retreat. So they changed their course towards Boston.* It would be interesting to know the full de- tails of that messenger's long ride, and just where in the westward it ended. His ex- hausted horse, covered with bloody foam, falling in the street before the church, must have be(5n a spectacular sight, and one that spoke loudly of that terrific ride, perhaps the longest one of all the messengers.
