rachel took me on a route that i did not know and we went by a silversmith 's shop and we looked within and i , expecting clumsy little tankards and plates , was amazed to see the silver worked in such intricate ways in grand bowls and servers and ladles and such , and rachel says that it is the work of our own mr. revere , hero of the revolution , and i ask whether he really was a hero or not and rachel says that yes he was 'cause he warned the people of lexington and concord of the coming of the british regulars .
