Before the year when the first pneumatic subway was opened in New York?

I can’t find it tonight, but what a hint!
It must be the best one ever! I think I’d better log out now and join you again tomorrow.

Maybe I have to clarify one thing:
Sub Rosa Subway is not a hint, but because you referred to it, I had to think of this song; that's why I posted the clip
.
Good night!

Æw … I thought the song was the hint. But that would have been too much of a coincident, I guess. We have established that he died some time between 1799 and 1870. Did he come from one of the Americas?

"At the sound of the Bell": "The bell's a'ringing! The town's alarmed, and you're all dead men!"
"In for a Ride": "Midnight Ride"
Have I interpreted your hints correctly? The rest of them are easy. And the answer is of course
Paul Revere.

Correct! On the sound of the bell: There is another possible interpretation: Paul Revere became a bell caster in 1792.
