Partially False

Several years ago I read a learned article on Paul Revere's ride, and it said that most likely he would have been yelling, "The regulars are coming". It further said that, like the Marshal said, everybody was British, so saying "The British are coming" would be foolish.

How about, "The Redcoats are coming?"

In the spirit of pedanticism, most likely "the regulars are coming," or "the regulars are out."

However, still funny.

Well, what ever they yelled and  whoever  did it saved  us from invasion otherwise we'd all be speaking English now...:P:FlagAm:

They haven't spoken The King's English since 1952.
