William Dawes, Jr (1745 – 1799) was an American tanner and Patriot during the American Revolutionary War.
Biography
Dawes was born in Boston to William Dawes and Lydia Boone. He became a tanner and was active in Boston's militia.
On 18 April 1775, the Assassin Connor met with Paul Revere, who was already meeting with Dawes and Robert Newman. Dawes was assigned to ride to Lexington and warn John Hancock and Samuel Adams of the impending attack by the British Army.
He, Revere, and Samuel Prescott then rode for Concord, but were confronted by British troops. The trio split up, and Dawes avoided capture.
