REVOLUTIONARY  SOLDIERS. 


1775-1783. 


[The  following  alphabetical  List  of  Soldiers  of  the  War  for  Indepen- 
dence has  been  compiled  chiefly  from  the  Depreciation  Account  books 
in  the  office  of  the  Auditor  General  of  Pennsylvania.  It  is  difficult  to 
distinguish  between  those  of  the  lAne,  the  Association,  Rangers,  or  Mil- 
itia and  many  of  them,  no  doubt,  appear  in  the  rolls  already  published ; 
yet  it  has  been  deemed  proper  to  print  this  list  as  it  is.  It  contains 
nearly  ten  thousand  names,  and,  as  will  be  seen  hereafter,  but  a  small 
proportion  of  those  heroes  who  gave  us  the  heritage  of  liberty  and  free 
government  we  enjoy.]

|E,  the  officers  and  soldiers,  engaged  in  the  present  asso- 
ciation for  the  defense  of  American  liberty,  being  fully 
sensible  that  the  strength  and  security  of  any  body  of 
men,  acting  together,  consists  in  just  regularity,  due 
subordination,  and  exact  obedience  to  command,  without  which  no 
individual  can  have  that  confidence  in  the  support  of  those  about 
him,  that  is  so  necessary  to  give  firmness  and  resolution  to  the 
whole,  do  voluntarily  and  freely,  after  consideration  of  the  follow- 
ing articles,  adopt  the  same  as  the  rules  by  which  we  agree  and  re- 
solve to  be  governed  in  all  our  military  concerns  and  operations, 
until  the  same,  or  any  of  them,  shall  be  changed  or  dissolved  by  the 
Assembly,  or  Provincial  Convention,  or  in  their  recess  by  the  Com-

shall  be  censured  according  to  the  nature  of  the  offence,  by  the  judg- 
ment of  a  regimental  court  martial.

lence against  him,  being  in  the  execution  of  his  office,  shall,  upon 
conviction  before  a  regimental  court  martial,  be  dismissed,  and 
shall  be  deemed  to  be  thereby  disgraced  as  unworthy  the  company 
of  freemen.

tfon  when  on  duty,  shall,  upon  conviction  before  a  general  court

ADDRESS  OF  THE  COMMITTEE  OF  CONFERENCE 

To  the  Asseciators  of  Pennsylvania,  June  25,  1776. 

GENTLEMEN  :  The  only  design  of  our  meeting  together  was  to 
>ut  an  end  to  our  own  power  in  the  Province  by  fixing  upon  a  plan 
for  calling  a  convention  to  form  a  government  under  the  authority 
of  the  people.  But  the  sudden  and  unexpected  separation  of  the 
Assembly  has  compelled  us  to  undertake  the  execution  of  a  resolve 
of  Congress  for  calling  forth  4,500  of  the  militia  of  the  Province  to 
join  the  militia  of  the  neighboring  colonies  to  form  a  camp  for  our 
immediate  protection.  We  presume  only  to  recommend  the  plan 
we  have  formed  to  you,  trusting  that  in  case  of  so  much  consequence 
your  love  of  virtue  and  zeal  for  liberty  will  supply  the  want  of  au- 
thority delegated  to  us  expressly  for  that  purpose. 

We  need  not  remind  you  that  you  are  now  furnished  with  new 
motives  to  animate  and  support  your  courage.  You  are  not  about 
to  contend  against  the  power  of  Great  Britain  in  order  to  displace 
one  set  of  villains  to  make  room  for  another.  Your  arms  will  not 
be  enervated  in  the  day  of  battle  with  the  reflection  that  you  are 
to  risk  your  lives  or  shed  your  blood  for  a  British  tyrant,  or  that 
your  posterity  will  have  your  work  to  do  over  again.  You  are  about 
to  contend  for  permanent  freedom,  to  be  supported  by  a  government 
which  will  be  derived  from  yourselves,  and  which  will  have  for  its 
object  not  the  enrollment  of  one  man,  or  class  of  men  only,  but  the 
safety,  liberty,  and  happiness  of  every  individual  in  the  community. 

We  call  upon  you,  therefore,  by  the  respect  and  obedience  which 
are  due  to  the  authority  of  the  United  Colonies,  to  concur  in  this 
important  measure.  The  present  campaign  will  probably  decide 
the  fate  of  America.  It  is  now  in  your  power  to  immortalize  your 
names  by  mingling  your  achievements  with  the  events  of  the  year 
1776— a  year  which  we  hope  will  be  famed  in  the  annals  of  history 
to  the  end  of  time,  for  establishing  upon  a  lasting  foundation  the 
liberties  of  one  quarter  of  the  globe. 

Remember  the  honor  of  our  Colony  is  at  stake.  Should  you  de- 
sert the  common  cause  at  the  present  juncture,  the  glory  you  have 
acquired  by  your  former  exertions  of  strength  and  virtue  will  be 
tarnished,  and  our  friends  and  brethern  who  are  now  acquiring 
laurels  in  the  most  remote  parts  of  America  will  reproach  us  and 
blush  to  own  themselves  natives. or  inhabitants  of  Pennsylvania. 
But  there  are  other  motives  before  you — your  houses,  your  fields, 
t  lie  legacies  of  your  ancestors,  or  the  dear-bought  fruits  of  your  own 
industry  and  your  liberty-  now  urge  you  to  the  field.  These  can- 


260  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

not  plead  with  you  in  vain,  or  we  might  point  out  to  you  further — 
your  wives,  your  children,  your  aged  fathers  and  mothers,  who  now 
look  up  to  you  for  aid  and  hope  for  salvation  in  this  day  of  calamity 
only  from  the  instrumentality  of  your  swords.  Remember  the 
name  of  Pennsylvania.  Think  of  your  ancestors  and  of  your  pos- 
terity *

THE  HANOVER  RESOLVES. 


|T  an  assembly  of  the  inhabitants  of  Hanover,  Lancaster 
county,  held  on  Saturday,  June  4, 1774,  Col.  Timothy 
Green,  chairman,  to  express  their  sentiments  on  the 
present  critical  state  of  affairs,  it  was  unanimously 
resolved : 

1st.  That  the  recent  action  of  the  Parliament  of  Great  Britain  is 
iniquitous  and  oppressive. 

2d.  That  .it  is  the  bounden  duty  of  the  people  to  oppose  every 
measure  which  tends  to  deprive  them  of  their  just  prerogatives. 

3d.  That  in  a  closer  union  of  the  Colonies  lies  the  safeguard  of 
the  liberties  of  the  people. 

4th.  That  in  the  event  of  Great  Britain  attempting  to  force  nn- 
just  laws  upon  us  by  the  strength  of  arms,  our  cause  we  leave  to 
heaven  and  our  rifles. 

5th.  That  a  committee  of  nine  be  appointed,  who  shall  act  for  us

1st.  That  the  acts  of  the  Parliament  of  Great  Britain  in  divesting 
us  of  the  right  to  give  and  grant  our  money,  and  assuming  such 
power  to  themselves,  are  unconstitutional,  unjust,  and  oppressive.

to  deprive  us  of  our  just  rights  and  privileges.

3d.  That  a  close  union  of  the  Colonies  and  their  faithful  adhering 
to  such  measures  as  a  general  Congress  shall  judge  proper,  are  the 
most  likely  means  to  procure  redress  of  American  grievances,  and 
settle  the  rights  of  the  Colonies  on  a  permanent  basis. 

4th.  That  we  will  sincerely  and  heartily  agree  to  and  abide  by 
the  measures  which  shall  be  adopted  by  the  members  of  the  general

THE  LEBANON  RESOLVES. 

At  a  meeting  of  the  inhabitants  of  Lebanon  and  the  adjoining 
townships,  on  Saturday,  25th  of  June,  1774,  holden  at  the  house  of 
Capt.  Greenawalt,  whereof  Major  John  Philip  DeHaas  was  chair- 
man, to  take  into  serious  consideration  the  state  of  public  affairs, 
it  was  unanimously  declared  and  resolved  : 

1st.  That  the  late  act  of  the  British  Parliament,  by  which  the 
port  of  Boston  is  shut  up,  is  an  act  oppressive  to  the  people  of  that 
city  and  subversive  of  the  rights  of  the  inhabitants  of  America. 

2d.  That  while  we  profess  to  be  loyal  subjects  of  Great  Britain, 
we  shall  not  submit  to  unjust  and  iniquitous  laws,  as  we  are  not 
slaves,  but  freemen. 

3d.  That  we  are  in  favor  of  a  Congress  of  Deputies  who  will  act 
in  behalf  of  the  people  for  obtaining  a  redress  of  grievances. 

4th.  That  we  will  unite  with  the  inhabitants  of  other  portions 
of  our  country  in  such  measurers  as  will  preserve  to  us  our  rights 
and  our  liberties. 

5th.  That  our  countrymen  of  the  city  of  Boston  have  our  sincer- 
est  sympathy,  that  their  cause  is  the  common  cause  of  America. 

6th.  That  Messrs.  Philip  Greenawalt,  Thomas  Clark,  Michael 
Ley,  Killian  Long,  and  Curtis  Grubb  be  a  committee  to  collect 
contributions  for  our  suffering  brethren.

THE  LANCASTER  RESOLVES. 


Pursuant  to  the  publication  of  the  resolves  of  the  Committee  of 
Correspondence  for  the  city  and  county  of  Philadelphia,  there  was 
held  a  meeting  of  a  very  respectable  number  of  the  freemen  and  in- 
habitants of  the  county  of  Lancaster,  on  Saturday,  the  9th  of  July, 
1774,  George  Itoss,  Esq.,  in  the  chair. 

This  assembly,  taking  into  their  serious  consideration  the  several 
late  acts  of  the  British  Parliament  relative  to  America,  came  un- 
animously to  the  following  declarations  and  resolves,  viz: 

1.  We  do  sincerely  profess  and  declare,  that  his  most  gracious 
Majesty  King  George  the  Third  is  our  rightful  and  lawful  sover- 
eign, and  that  we  will  at  all  times  support  and  defend  him  to  the 
utmost  of  our  power,  with  our  lives  and  fortunes,  against  his  ene- 

•mies. 

2.  We  do  further  declare  that  no  power  is  constitutionally  lodged 
in  the  hands  of  any  body  of  men  to  give  and  grant  our  money,  save 
only  our  representatives  in  assembly,  who  have  at  all  times  cheer- 
fully granted  aids  to  his  Majesty  whenever  he  has  made  a  requisi- 
tion from  them.  % 

3.  That  the  acts  of  the  British  Parliament  for  divesting  us  of 
such  right,  and  assuming  such  power  to  themselves,  are  unconstitu- 
tional, unjust,  and  oppressive. 

4.  That  it  is  an  indispensable  duty  we  owe  to  ourselves  and  our 
posterity  to  oppose  with  decency  and  firmness  every  measure  tend- 
ing to  deprive  us  of  our  just  rights  and  privileges. 

5.  That  a  close  union  of  the  Colonies,  and  their  faithful  adhering 
to  such  measures  as  a  general  Congress  shall  judge  proper,  are  the 
most  likely  means  to  procure  redress  of  American  grievances  and 
settle  the  rights  of  the  Colonies  on  a  permanent  basis. 

6.  That  it  is  highly  expedient  to  appoint  a  committee,  to  meet  the 
Committee  of  the  other  counties  of  this  Province  at  Philadelphia, 
on  the  loth  instant,  to  confer  with  them  on  the  important  matters 
mentioned  in  the  letter  from  the  chairman  of  the  committee  ot 
Philadelphia, 

7.  That  we  will  sincerely  and  heartily  agree  to  and  abide  by  the 
measures  which  shall  be  adopted  by  the  members  of  the  general 
Congress  of  the  Colonies. 

8.  That  we  do  tenderly  sympathize  with  our  brethren  of  Boston, 
who  are  suffering  in  the  American  cause  by  an  unconstitutional 
and  oppressive  act  of  the  British  Parliament,  called  the  Boston  Port 
Bill. 

9.  That  a  subscription  be  opened  for  the  relief  of  our  suffering 
brethren  there. 

18- VOL.  XIII. 


274  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

10.  That  the  subscription  be  put  into  the  hands  of  the  committee 
of  this  county,  to  be  by  them  laid  out  in  the  purchase  of  provisions 
and  sent  to  Boston  towards  the  relief  of  their  distresses. 

11.  That  the  committee  for  the  borough  of  Lancaster  already  ap- 
pointed be  a  Committee  of  Correspondence ;  and  that  George  Ross, 

ames  Webb,  Matthias  Slough,  Joseph  Ferree,  Emariuel  Carpenter, 
and  William  Atlee,  Esquires,  Mr.  Alexander  Lowry,and  Mr.  Moses 
Erwin  be  the  committee  to  meet  and  consult  with  the  committees 
of  the  other  counties  of  this  Province  at  Philadelphia,  the  15th  in- 
stant, and  also  to  join  with  the  Committee  of  Correspondence  in 
receiving  subscriptions. 

It  was  then  moved  that  the  thanks  of  the  freemen  and  inhabi- 
tants present  should  be  rendered  to  the  worthy  chairman  for  the 
very  proper  and  spirited  address  made  by  him  to  this  assembly,  re- 
plete with  the  warmest  expressions  of  loyality  to  his  Majesty,  and 
fervent  zeal  for  the  common  interests  of  America,  which  motion 
was  agreed  to  by  a  general  holding  up  of  hands,  and  the  thanks 
of  the  assembly  were  then  presented  to  Mr.  Ross  for  his  patriotic 
conduct  upon  this  occasion. 

EBEUHART  MICHAEL, 
Clerk. 

A  subscription  was  then  immediately  opened  by  the  committee 
for  the  benefit  of  our  suffering  brethren  of  the  town  of  Boston,  and 
very  handsome  sums  subscribed  by  several  of  the  persons  present ; 
and  at  the  request  of  numbers  of  the  reputable  inhabitants,  papers 
are  printed  and  sending  to  the  different  townships  to  receive  the 
subscriptions  of  the  inhabitants  of  this  county,  which  it  is  expected 
will  amount  to  a  considerable  sum,  and  will  be  collected  as  expedi- 
tiously  as  possible  by  the  committee  and  laid  out  as  shall  be  thought 
best  to  answer  the  good  purpose  intended. 

A  paper  was  delivered  by  Mr.  Elijah  Wickersham  to  the  chairman 
at  this  meeting,  and  read  by  him,  containing  similar  resolves  (with 
the  above)  of  the  freemen  of  the  townships  of  Paxtang  and  Derry, 
at  their  meeting  at  the  town  of  Middletown,  on  the  8th  last  past, 
and  signed  by  James  Burd,  Esq.,  chairman.

MINUTES   OF   THE   COMMITTEE   OF 
OBSERVATION. 

[The  full  proceedings  of  the  Committee  of  Observation  for  the 
county  of  Lancaster  were  in  existence  a  few  years  ago,  but  at  pre- 
sent cannot  be  found.  We  give,  however,  such  extracts  therefrom 
as  have  come  into  our  possession.] 


PROCEEDINGS. 

LANCASTER,  June  15, 1774. 

In  pursuance  of  a  letter  written  by  Mr.  Charles  Thompson,  and 
sent  to  the  inhabitants  of  this  borough,  directed  to  the  care  of  Mr. 
William  Atlee,  a  meeting  was  held  on  the  15th  day  of  June,  1774, 
and  the  following  resolves  were  agreed  on,  viz : 

At  a  meeting  of  the  inhabitants  of  the  borough  of  Lancaster,  at 
the  court  house  in  the  said  borough,  on  Wednesday,  the  15th  day 
of  June,  1774:  Agreed — that  to  preserve  the  constitutional  rights 
of  the  inhabitants  of  America,  it  is  incumbent  on  every  Colony  to 
unite  and  use  the  most  effectual  means  to  procure  a  repeal  of  the 
late  act  of  Parliament  against  the  town  of  Boston. 

That  the  act  of  Parliament  for  blocking  up  the  port  and  harbor 
of  Boston  is  an  invasion  of  the  rights  of  the  inhabitants  of  the  said 
town,  as  subjects  of  the  crown  of  Great  Britain.  That  it  is  the 
opinion  of  the  inhabitants  at  this  meeting  that  the  proper  and  ef- 
fectual means  to  be  used  to  obtain  a  repeal  of  the  said  act,  will  be 
to  put  an  immediate  stop  to  all  imports  and  exports,  to  and  from 
Great  Britain,  until  the  same  act  be  repealed. 

That  the  traders  and  inhabitants  of  this  town  will  join  and  con- 
cur with  the  patriotic  merchants,  tradesmen,  and  freeholders  of 
the  city  and  county  of  Philadelphia,  and  other  parts  of  this  Pro- 
vince, in  an  association  or  solemn  agreement  to  this  purpose,  if  the 
same  shall  be  by  them  thought  necessary. 

That  Edward  Shippen,  Esq.,  George  Ross,  Esq.,  Jasper  Yeates, 
Esq.,  Matthias  Slough,  Esq.,  James  Webb,  Esq.,  William  Atlee, 
Esq.,  William  Henry,  Esq.,  Mr.  Ludwig  Laurnan,  Mr.  William 
Bausman,  and  Mr.  Charles  Hall  be  a  committee  to  correspond  with 
the  general  committee  of  Philadelphia;  that  these  sentiments  be 
immediately  forwarded  to  the  Committee  of  Correspondence  at 
Philadelphia. 

The  gentlemen  above  named,  after  being  chosen  and  appointed  a 
Committee  of  Correspondence,  resolved  upon  the  following  letter

to  be  transmitted  to  the  committee  of  Philadelphia,  directed  to  Mr. 
Charles  Thompson,  and  is  as  follows,  viz : 

LANCASTER,  the  25th  June,  1774. 

SIR:  Agreeable  to  the  request  of  the  Committee  of  Correspond- 
ence for  the  city  of  Philadelphia,  signified  to  some  of  the  Inhabi- 
tants here,  by  your  letter,  we  have  this  evening  had  a  Meeting  of 
the  Inhabitants  of  this  Town,  (at  which  a  great  number  attended) 
at  the  Court  House,  and  unanimously  .gave  their  assent  to  the  Re- 
solves or  Agreement  inclosed.  As  taking  the  sentiments  of  the 
county  could  not  be  so  expeditiousLy  done  by  having  a  general  Meet- 
ing of  the  Inhabitants,  we  thought  best  to  give  you  those  of  the 
Town,  and  have  the  pleasure  now  to  assure  you  that  the  Inhabi- 
tants of  the  county  in  general  begin  to  entertain  similar  opinions 
within  as  to  this  matter,  and  will  no  doubt  heartily  concur  in  them 
at  a  Meeting  which  we  shall  endeavor  as  soon  as  possible  to  have 
with  them.  We  hope  you  will  give  us  intelligence  of  any  matters 
worthy  of  notice,  and  be  assured  we  shall  do  everything  in  our 
power  to  promote  the  General  Interest. 

We  are,  &c.,

the  good  people  of  this  Province,  on  the  present  alarming  and  criti- 
cal situation  of  the  American  colonies;  therefore, 

Resolved,  That  notice  be  given  to  the  freemen  and  inhabitants  of

meet  at  Philadelphia  for  the  very  great  and  useful  purposes  men. 
tioned  in  the  said  resolves  and  circular  letters;  therefore, 

Resolved,  That  the  freemen  and  inhabitants  of  this  county  be  re-

The  following  are  the  resolves  and  circular  letter  referred  to  in 
the  foregoing  resolutions : 

"  PHILADELPHIA,' June,  277^. 

"At  a  very  large  and  respectable  meeting  of  the  freeholders  and 
freemen  of  the  city  and  county  of  Philadelphia,  on  Saturday,  June 
18,  1774,  Thomas  Willing  and  John  Dickinson*  Esqrs.,  chairmen. 

"•  I.  Itesolved,  That  the  act  of  Parliament  for  shuttting  up  the 
port  of  Boston  is  unconstitutional,  oppressive  to  the  inhabitants  of 
that  town,  dangerous  to  the  liberties  of  the  British  colonies,  and 
that,  therefore,  we  consider  our  brethern  at  Boston  as  suffering  in 
the  common  cause  of  America. 

"II.  That  a  Congress  of  Deputies  frdm  the  several  Colonies  in 
North  America  is  the  most  probable  and  proper  mode  of  procuring 
relief  for  our  suffering  brethren,  obtaining  redress  of  American 
grievances,  securing  our  rights  and  liberties,  and  reestablishing 
peace  and  harmony  between  Great  Britain  and  these  Colonies  on  a 
constitutional  foundation. 

"  III.  That  a  large  and  respectable  committee  be  immediately 
appointed  for  the  city  and  county  of  Philadelphia,  to  correspond 
with  the  sister  Colonies  and  with  the  several  counties  in  this  Pro- 
vince, in  order  that  all  may  unite  in  promoting  and  endeavoring  to 
attain  the  great  and  valuable  ends  mentioned  in  the  foregoing  re- 
solution. 

"  IV.  That  the  committee  nominated  by  this  meeting  shall  con- 
sult together,  and  on  mature  deliberation  determine  what  is  the 
most  proper  mode  of  collecting  the  sense  of  this  Province,  and  ap- 
pointing deputies  for  the  same  to  attend  a  general  Congress;  and, 
having  determined  thereupon,  shall  take  such  measures,  as  by  them 
shall  be  judged  most  expedient,  for  procuring  this  Province  to  be 
represented  at  the  said  Congress,  in  the  best  manner  that  can  be 
devised  for  promoting  the  public  welfare. 

"  V.  That  the  committee  be  instructed  immediately  to  set  on 
foot  a  subscription  for  the  relief  of  such  poor  inhabitants  of  the 
town  of  Boston  as  may  be  deprived  of  the  means  of  subsistence  by 
the  operation  of  the  act  of  Parliament  commonly  styled  the  Boston 


278  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

Port  Bill—tlie  money  arising  from  such  subscriptions  to  be  laid  out 
as  the  committee  shall  think  will  best  answer  the  ends  proposed. 

"VI.  That  the  committee  consist  of  forty-three  persons,  viz: 
John  Dickinson,  Edward  Penuington,  John  Nixon,  Thomas  Will- 
ing, George  Clymer,  Samuel  Howell,  Joseph  Reed,  John  Roberts*

Schlosser,  and  Christopher  Ludwick.  And  after  the  first  reading 
of  the  propositions  that  had  been  prepared  for  the  meeting  on  Sat- 
urday, the  18th  inst.,  and  before  they  were  put  up  separately,  the 
Rev.  Dr.  Smith  made  the  following  short  address,  which  is  published 
at  the  desire  of  many  : 

u  GENTLEMEN  :  The  occasion  of  this  meeting  has  been  fully  ex- 
plained to  you,  and  sundry  propositions  read,  which  are  now  to  be 
separately  offered  for  your  approbation  or  disapprobation.  But  be- 
fore you  proceed  to  this  business,  it  has  been  thought  proper  to 
submit  a  few  things  to  your  good  judgment,  with  respect  to  the  or- 
der and  decorum  necessary  to  be  observed  in  the  discussion  of  every 
question. 

"  It  need  not  be  repeated  to  you  that  matters  of  the  highest  con- 
sequence to  the  happiness  of  this  Province,  nay  of  all  British 
America,  depend  upon  your  deliberations  this  day — perhaps  noth- 
ing less  than  whether  the  breach  with  the  country  from  which  we 
descended  shall  be  irreparably  widened,  or  whether  ways  and  means 
upon  constitutional  grounds  may  not  yet  be  devised  for  closing  that 
breach,  and  restoring  that  harmony  from  which,  in  our  better  days, 
Great  Britain  and  her  colonies  derived  mutual  strength  and  glory, 
and  were  exalted  into  an  importance  that,  both  in  peace  and  war, 
made  them  the  envy  and  terror  of  the  neighboring  nations. 

"  While  subjects  such  as  these  are  agitated  before  us,  everything 
that  may  inflame  and  mislead  the  passions  should  be  cast  far  be- 
hind us.  A  cause  of  such  importance  and  magnitude  as  that  now 
under  our  deliberation,  is  not  to  be  conducted  to  its  true  issue  by 
any  heated  or  hasty  resolves,  nor  by  any  bitterness  and  animosities 
among  ourselves,  nor  even  perhaps  by  too  severe  a  recapitulation 
of  past  grievances,  but  require  the  temperate  and  enlightened  zeal 
of  the  patriot,  the  prudence  arid  experience  of  the  aged,  the  strength 
of  mind  and  vigor  of  those  who  are  in  their  prime  of  life,  and,  in 
short,  the  united  wisdom  and  efforts  of  all.  both  high  and  low. 


AND  MILITIA  OF  THE  REVOLUTION.  279 

joining  hand  in  hand,  and  setting  foot  to  foot,  upon  the  firm  ground 
of  reason  and  the  constitution. 

"  Whenever  party  distinctions  begin  to  operate,  we  shall  give 
cause  of  triumph  to  those  who  may  be  watchful  as  well  as  power- 
ful to  abridge  us  of  our  native  right.  There  ought  to  be  no  party, 
no  contention  here,  but  who  shall  be  firmest  and  foremost  in  the 
common  cause  of  America.  Every  man's  sentiments  should  be 
freely  heard,  and  without  prejudice.  While  we  contend  for  liberty 
with  others,  let  us  not  refuse  liberty  to  each  other. 

"  Whatever  vote  is  known  to  be  now  passed,  upon  full  delibera- 
tion, and  by  the  unanimous  voice  of  this  great  city  and  county ^ 
will  not  only  be  respected  through  all  America,  but  will  have  such 
a  weight  as  the  proudest  Minister  in  England  may  have  reason  to 
respect.  But  if  it  is  known  to  be  a  divided  vote,  or  adopted  hastily 
on  some  angry  day,  it  will  only  be  injurious  to  our  own  cause. 

"  What  I  have  in  charge  to  request  of  you  is  this— that  if,  on  any 
point,  we  should  have  a  difference  of  sentiments,  every  person  may 
be  allowed  to  speak  his  mind  freely,  and  to  conclude  what  he  has  to 
offer,  without  any  sucli  outward  marks  of  approbation  or  disappro- 
bation as  clapping  or  hissing,  and  that  if  a  division  should  be  nec- 
essary, (which  it  is  hoped  may  not  be  the  case  this  day,)  such  divi- 
sion may  be  made  in  the  manner  desired  by  the  chairman,  with  all 
possible  order  and  decorum. 

"  The  following  is  a  copy  of  the  circular  letter  sent  by  the  com- 
mittee for  this  city  and  county  [Philadelphia]  to  the  different  coun- 
ties in  this  Province : 

"  PHILADELPHIA,  June  28, 1774.

and  county  beg  leave  to  enclose  you  copies  of  the  resolves,  passed 
at  a  very  large  and  respectable  meeting  of  the  freeholders  and  free- 
men in  the  State  House  Square,  on  Saturday,  the  18th  inst.  By 
the  4th  of  those  resolves,  you  will  observe  that  it  was  left  for  the 
committee  l'  To  determine  on  the  most  proper  mode  of  collecting 
the  sense  of  this  Province  in  the  present  critical  situation  of  our 
affairs,  and  appointing  Deputies  to  attend  the  proposed  Congress." 
In  pursuance  of  this  trust,  we  have,  upon  the  maturest  delibera- 
tion, determined  upon  the  mode  contained  in  the  two  following  pro- 
positions, which  we  hope  may  meet  with  the  approbation  and  con- 
currence of  your  respectable  county,  viz: 

"  1.  That  the  Speaker  of  the  Honorable  House  of  Representatives 
be  desired  to  write  to  the  several  members  of  Assembly  in  this  Pro- 
vince, requesting  them  to  meet  in  this  city  as  soon  as  possible,  but 
not  later  than  the  1st  of  August  next,  to  take  into  their  considera- 
tion our  very  alarming  situation. 

"  2.  That  letters  be  written  to  proper  persons  in  each  county,  re- 
commending it  to  them  to  get  committees  appointed  for  their  re- 


280  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

spective  counties,  and  that  the  said  committees,  or  such  number  of 
them  as  may  be  thought  proper,  may  meet  in  Philadelphia  at  the 
time  the  Representatives  are  convened,  in  order  to  consult  and  ad. 
vise  on  the  most  expedient  mode  of  appointing  Deputies  for  the 
general  Congress,  and  to  give  their  weight  to  such  as  may  be  ap- 
pointed. 

u  The  Speaker  of  the  Assembly,  in  a  very  obliging  and  ready 
manner,  had  agreed  to  comply  with  the  request  in  the  former  of 
these  propositions,  but  we  are  now  informed  that,  on  account  of 
the  Indian  disturbances,  the  Governor  has  found  it  necessary  to  call 
the  Assembly  to  meet  in  their  legislative  capacity  on  Monday,  July 
18,  being  about  the  same  time  the  Speaker  would  probably  have  in- 
vited them  to  a  conference  or  convention  in  their  private  capacity.' 

"  What  we  have  therefore  to  request  is,  that  if  you  approve  of  the 
mode  expressed  in  the  second  proposition,  the  whole  or  part  of  the' 
committee  appointed,  or  to  be  appointed  for  your  county,  will  meet 
committees  from  the  other  counties  at  Philadelphia,  on  Friday,  the 
15th  of  July,  in  order  to  assist  in  framing  instructions,  and  prepar- 
ing such  matters  as  may  be  proper  to  recommend  to  our  Represen- 
tatives at  their  meeting  the  Monday  following. 

"We  trust  110  apology  is  necessary  for  the  trouble  we  propose1 
giving  your  committee,  of  attending  at  Philadelphia ;  as  we  art 
.persuaded,  you  are  fully  convinced  of  the  necessity  of  the  closest 
union  among  ourselves  both  in  sentiment  and  action  ;  nor  can  such 
union  be  obtained  so  well  by  any  other  method  as  by  a  meeting  of 
the  county  committees  of  each  particular  Province,  in  one  place, 
preparatory  to  the  general  Congress. 

u  We  would  not  offer  such  an  affront  to  the  well  known  public 
spirit  of  Pennsylvanians  as  to  question  your  zeal  on  the  present  oc- 
casion. Our  very  existence  in  the  rank  of  freemen,  and  the  se-^ 
curity  of  all  that  ought  to  be  dear  to  us  evidently  depend  upon  our 
conducting  this  great  cause  to  its  proper  issue  by  firmness,  wisdom, 
and  unanimity.  We  cannot,  therefore,  doubt  your  ready  concur- 
rence in  every  measure  that  may  be  conducive  to  the  public  good  } 
and  it  is  with  pleasure  we  can  assure  you  that  all  the  Colonies,  from 
S.  Carolina  to  N".  Hampshire,  seem  animated  with  one  spirit  in  the 
common  cause,  and  consider  this  as  the  proper  crisis  for  having  our 
differences  with  the  Mother  Country  brought  to  some  certain  issue, 
and  our  liberties  fixt  upon  a  permanent  foundation.  This  desirable 
end  can  only  be  accomplished  by  a  free  communion  of  sentiments 
and  a  sincere  fervent  regard  to  the  interests  of  our  common  coun- 
try. We  beg  to  be  favoured  with  an  answer  to  this  and  whether 
the  committee  for  your  county  can  attend  at  Phila.,  at  the  time 
proposed. 

Signed  by  order  of  the  committee, 

THOMAS  WILLING,  Chairman.'11

LANCASTER,  September  9, 1774. 

At  a  meeting  of  the  committee  of  the  county  of  Lancaster,  at 
Lancaster,  on  the  9th  September,  1774,  Edward  Shippen,  Esq.,  in 
the  chair. 

The  subscriptions  received  for  the  relief  of  the  distresses  of  the 
poor  inhabitants  of  the  town  of  Boston,  were  laid  before  the  com- 
mittee, and  it  appeareth  that  the  sum  of  one  hundred  and  fifty- 
three  pounds,  fifteen  shillings  and  two  pence  has  been  collected  in 
the  borough  of  Lancaster  for  the  purposes  aforesaid,  that  it  being 
put  to  the  vote  whether  the  said  sum  should  not  be  immediately 
remitted  to  Philadelphia  to  Mr.  John  Nixon,  the  Treasurer  of  the 
city  and  county  of  Philadelphia,  to  be  laid  out  in  such  manner  as 
the  committee  for  the  said  city  and  county  should  think  proper  for 
the  relief  of  our  distressed  poor  brethren  of  the  town  of  Boston,  the 
same  was  carried  in  the  affirmative,  and  Edward  Shippen,  Esq.,  the 
chairman,  is  requested  to  forward  the  said  sum  of  money  forthwith 
to  Philadelphia  for  the  purpose  aforesaid. 

At  this  time  no  proper  account  could  possibly  be  had  of  the  sub- 
scription papers  of  the  several  townships  in  this  county. 

The  following  letter  was  omitted  entering  in  its  proper  place,  and 
is  as  follows,  to  wit : 

PHILADELPHIA,  June  29, 1774. 

44  GENTLEMEN  :  Enclosed  you  will  receive  a  printed  circular  let- 
ter signed  by  the  chairman  of  our  committee,  and  the  resolves  there- 
in referred  to,  with  some  other  printed  papers.  The  use  to  be  made 
of  them,  your  own  prudence  and  good  judgment  will  suggest;  we 
would  be  glad  to  hear  as  soon  as  possible  from  the  committee  for 
your  county,  and  are 

Your  most  humble  servant, 

WILLIAM  SMITH. 
Your  assured  friend, 

ISAAC  HOWELL." 

To  Edward  Shippen  and  George  Ross,  Esq'rs.,  who  are  requested 
to  communicate  the  enclosed  papers  to  the  other  gentlemen  of  the 
committee. 

Those  gentlemen  named  and  appointed  at  the  meeting  of  the  9th 
of  July  last,  attended  the  provincial  convention  at  Philadelphia,  on 
Monday,  the  15th  then  next.  And  the  proceedings,  together  with 
the  resolves  of  that  provincial  committee,  hath  been  inserted  in  the 
public  papers. 

LANCASTER,  August  11,  1774. 

At  a  meeting  of  the  committee  August  llth,  they  were  informed 
that  Joshua  and  Robert  Lockharts,  of  this  borough,  shopkeepers, 
had  brought  to  this  town  a  quantity  of  tea,  that  have  paid  duty 


282  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

under  the  late  act  of  Parliament.  A  note  was  therefore  sent  to 
them  by  the  committee  requiring  their  immediate  attendance.  In 
consequence  t hereof,  one  of  the  partners  called  on  the  committee, 
but  denied  their  having  received  any  tea,  but  as  this  account  by  no 
means  appeared  satisfactory  from  several  matters  which  escaped 
the  partner  attending,  the  committee  did  inspect  their  shop,  and 
with  some  difficulty  learned  of  a  chest  of  Bohea  tea,  weight  349, 
neat  weight,  which  they  had  bought  from  a  certain  merchant  in  Phi- 
ladelphia. The  committee,  taking  an  account  of  all  the  marks  of 
the  case  in  which  it  was  packed,  removed  the  tea,  and  wrote  to  the 
committee  of  Philadelphia,  who  examined  the  matter,  and  it  ap- 
peareth  that  this  tea  never  had  paid  any  duty,  but  was  part  of  a 
seizure  made  by  the  Custom  House  and  was  afterwards  purchased 
at  a  public  sale  by  the  original  owner  of  it,  as  by  a  letter  from  the 
committee  of  Philadelphia,  dated  August  25th,  wrote  and  signed 
by  the  Honorable  Thomas  Willing,  the  chairman,  directed  to  this 
committee,  appears ;  upon  which,  the  said  teas  were  returned  again, 
and  the  said  Lockharts  were  acquitted. 

The  Continental  Congress  held  at  Philadelphia,  the  fifth  of  Sep- 
tember, 1774,  continued  to  the  25th  of  October;  the  votes  and  pro- 
ceading  of  which  have  since  been  published  in  the  public  papers, 
and  printed  also  by  a  pamphlet  containing  the  bill  of  rights,  list  of 
grievances,  occasional  resolves,  the  association,  an  address  to  the 
people  of  Great  Britain,  a  memorial  to  the  inhabitants  of  the  British 
American  Colonies,  and  petition  to  the  King. 


November  22,  1774. 

The  committee  of  this  borough  met  and  the  following  hand-bill 
by  them  ordered  to  be  printed,  and  sent  to,  and  put  up  at  all  the 
public  places  in  this  county,  viz : 

To  the  freeholders  and  electors  of  the  county  of  Lancaster: 

The  committee  for  the  borough  of  Lancaster,  taking  in  their  con- 
sideration the  resolves  and  recommendations  of  the  American  Con- 
tinental Congress,  request  that  the  freeholders  and  others  qualified 
to  vote  for  Representatives  in  Assembly  for  the  county  of  Lancas- 
ter, would  meet  at  the  court  house  in  Lancaster,  on  Thursday,  the 
fifteenth  day  of  December  next,  to  choose  by  ballot  sixty  proper 
persons  for  a  committee,  to  observe  the  conduct  of  all  persons 
touching  the  general  Association  of  the  general  Congress  ;  which 
committee,  it  is  proposed,  when  elected,  shall  divide  the  county 
into  different  districts,  and  appoint  members  of  the  committee  to 
superintend  each  district,  and  any  six  of  the  members  so  appointed 
for  a  district  to  be  a  quorum  for  transacting  business.

pen,  Esq.,  in  the  chair. 

Several  of  the  reputable  inhabitants  of  this  borough  of  Lancaster, 

having  mentioned  their  dislike  to  Mr.  Francis ,  having 

opened  a  dancing  school  in  this  borough,  (at  the  present  time)  and 
that  in  their  opinion  the  same  was  contrary  to  the  eighth  article  of 
the  Association  of  the  Continental  Congress,  and  requesting  a  meet- 
ing of  this  committee  and  their  sentiments  on  the  occasion.  Upon 
consideration  of  the  matter,  it  is  the  opinion  of  this  committee  that 

the  said  Mr.  Francis ,  opening  and  keeping  a  dancing  school 

in  the  said  borough,  comes  within  the  meaning  of  the  eighth  article 
of  the  Association  of  the  Continental  Congress,  and  that  the  same 
ought,  at  the  present  time,  during  the  unhappy  dispute  with  the 
mother  country,  to  be  discontinued.  And  Mr.  Francis ,  be- 
ing sent  for,  waited  upon  the  committee,  and  being  informed  of 
the  sentiments  of  this  committee,  agreed  and  promised  to  break  up 
and  discontinue  his  said  school. 

Signed  by  the  members  above  named. 

A  letter  received  from  the  Committee  of  Correspondence  of  the 
city  of  Philadelphia,  dated  the  22  December,  1774,  directed  to  the 
committee  of  this  place,  of  which  the  following  is  a  copy,  viz : 

GJENTLEMEN  :  By  order  of  the  committee  of  the  City  and  Liber-

lowing resolves,  passed  this  day  with  great  unanimity,  viz: 


AND  MILITIA  OF  THE  REVOLUTION.  287 

*•  That  this  committee  think  it  absolutely  necessary  that  the  com- 
mittees of  the  counties  of  this  Province,  or  such  deputies  as  they 
may  appoint  for  this  purpose,  be  requested  to  meet  together  in  pro- 
vincial convention  as  soon  as  convenient. 

%i  That  it  be  recommended  to  the  county  committees  to  meet  in 
said  convention,  on  Monday,  the  23d  day  of  January  next,  in  the 
city  of  Philadelphia. 

"  From  a  view  of  the  present  situation  of  public  affairs,  the  com- 
mittee have  been  induced  to  propose  this  convention  that  the  sense 
of  the  Province  may  be  obtained ;  and  that  the  measures  to  be 
taken  thereupon,  may  be  the  result  of  the  united  wisdom  of  the 
Colony. 

''  The  obvious  necessity  of  giving  an  immediate  consideration  to 
many  matters  of  the  greatest  importance  to  the  general  welfare, 
will,  we  hope,  sufficiently  apologize  to  you  for  naming  so  early  a 
day  as  the  23d  of  January.

"GENTLEMEN:  Enclosed  is  an  extract  from  the  proceedings  of 
the  committee  of  this  county,  by  which  yon  will  see  that  deputies 
are  appointed  to  attend  the  proposed  provincial  convention. 

kl  When  we  consider  that  our  disputes  are  drawing  fast  to  a  crisis, 
and  that  the  most  cordial  unanimity  is  absolutely  necessary  for  our 
preservation,  we  cannot  doubt  but  that  your  respectable  committee 
will  without  hesitation  appoint  deputies  to  attend  the  provincial 
Congress.  The  "neglect  of  any  one  county  may  have  the  most  fatal 
consequences.  And  we  well  know  the  pleasure  it  would  give  our 
enemies,  to  see  even  the  appearance  of  a  disunion  at  this  very  im- 
portant tune.

for  this  freedom.

Mr.  Hamilton  having  attended,  and  it  appearing  by  the  oath  of 
John  Taylor,  the  clerk,  that  the  tea  was  sold  in  Mr.  Hamilton's  ab- 
sence at  Philadelphia,  contrary  to  the  express  orders  given  by  him 
in  his  store  since  the  first  of  March  instant;  and  Mr.  Hamilton, 
upon  knowing  of  the  said  tea  being  sold,  immediately  disapproved 
of  the  sale  thereof.  And  Mr.  Hamilton,  himself,  upon  oath,  de- 
claring that  ever  since  the  first  of  March,  instant,  his  orders  in  the 
store  have  been  to  his  clerk  that  they  should  sell  no  tea  whatsoever, 
and  that  the  said  sale  was  in  his  absence,  and  that  he  disapproves 
thereof.  Upon  consideration  of  the  premises  by  the  committee,  it 
is  their  unanimous  opinion  that  Mr.  Hamilton  stands  acquitted  of 
the  charge  against  him,  and  that  he  hath  not  counteracted  the  As- 
sociation of  the  Continental  Congress. 

"  I,  Charles  Hamilton,  of  the  borough  of  Lancaster,  shopkeeper, 
do  hereby  declare  and  assert,  that  I  utterly  disapprove  of  the  sales 
of  any  tea  in  my  store  since  the  first  day  of  March,  instant,  and  it 
is  and  always  hath  been  my  fixed  intention  and  determination  to 
adhere  inviolably  to  the  Association  of  the  American  Continental 
Congress,  being  fully  convinced  that  the  measures  proposed  there- 
by are  the  only  probable  modes  of  rescuing  America  from  British 
Parliamentary  despotism.  Witne'ss  ray  hand,  the  thirtieth  day  of

said  House  of  Assembly,  do  unanimously  approve  of  the  active  part 
taken  by  the  said  Mr.  Ross  in  opposition  to  that  measure,  as  the

Upon  motion, 

Resolved,  That  it  is  the  unanimous  opinion  of  this  committee, 
that  it  be  most  heartily  recommended  to  the  inhabitants  of  the 
county  of  Lancaster,  immediately  to  associate  and  provide  them- 
selves with  arms  and  ammunition,  and  learn  the  art  of  military  dis- 
cipline, to  enable  them  to  support  and  defend  their  just  rights  and 
privileges  against  all  arbitrary  and  despotic  invasions  by  any  person 
or  persons  whatsoever. 

The  following  Association  was  then  proposed,  and  being  read 
paragraph  by  paragraph,  was  unanimously  agreed  to  by  the  commit- 
tee, and  follows  in  these  words,  to  wit : 

Tlie  Association  of  the  Freemen  and  Inhabitants  of  ( township} 

the  county  of  Lancaster. 

WHEREAS,  The  enemies  of. Great  Britain  and  America,  have  re- 
solved by  force  of  arms,  to  carry  into  execution  the  most  unjust, 
tyrannical,  and  cruel  edicts  of  the  British  Parliament,  and  reduce 
the  free  born  sons  of  America  to  a  state  of  vassalage,  and  have  flat^ 
tered  themselves  from  our  unacquaintance  with  military  discipline- 
that  we  should  become  an  easy  prey  to  them,  or  tamely  submit,  and 
bend  our  necks  to  the  yoke  prepared  for  us. 

We  do  most  solemnly  agree  and  associate,  under  the  deepest  sense 
of  our  duty  to  God,  our  country,  ourselves,  and  posterity,  to  defend 
and  protect  the  religious  and  civil  rights  of  this  and  our  sister 
Colonies,  with  our  lives  and  our  fortunes,  to  the  utmost  of  our 
abilities,  against  any  power  whatsoever,  that  shall  attempt  to  de- 
prive us  of  them. 

And  the  better  to  enable  us  so  to  do,  we  will  use  our  utmost  dili- 
gence to  acquaint  ourselves  with  military  discipline  and  the  art  of 
war. 

We  do  further  agree  to  divide  ourselves  into  companies,  not  ex- 
ceeding one  hundred  men  each,  so  as  to  make  it  most  convenient 
to  our  situations  and  settlements,  and  to  elect  and  chuse  such  per- 
sons as  the  majority  of  each  company  shall  think  proper  for  officers, 
viz:  for  each  company,  a  captain,  two  lieutenants,  and  one  en- 
sign, who  shall  have  the  power  of  appointing  the  other  officers  -un- 
der them  necessary  for  the  companies. 

That  when  the  companies  are  formed,  and  the  officers  chosen  and 
appointed,  an  association  shall  be  signed  by  the  officers  and  soldiers 
of  each  company  for  the  good  order  and  government  of  the  officers 
and  soldiers.

to  the  committee  of  Lancaster  county  respecting  the  provincial 
muskets  in  the  hands  of  the  military  associators  and  others  in  this 
county,  has  been  laid  before  this  committee  and  taken  into  con- 
sideration. 

We  find  that  the  gentlemen  who  were  the  Committee  of  Corres- 
pondence, appointed  by  the  late  county  committee,  had  upon  the 
receipt  of  your  letter,  published  and  dispersed  hand-bills  through- 
out the  county  requiring  the  persons  possessed  of  such  muskets  to 
bring  them  in  at  this  time.  As  none  are  brought  in,  we  beg  leave 
to  suggest  to  you  some  facts,  relative  to  those  arms,  and  wait  your 
further  directions. 

After  the  troops  raised  by -the  Province  in  the  late  war  were  dis- 
banded, a  number  of  muskets  and  military  accoutrements  were 
lodged  at  a  Mr.  Carson 'sin  Paxtang,  where  they  remained  without 
any  notice  or  care  being  taken  of  them,  until  the  unhappy  disputes 
between  Great  Britain  and  the  Colonies  rendered  it  indispensably 
necessary  for  our  safety  to  associate  and  arm  in  defence  of  our 
rights.  The  then  committee  of  this  county,  upon  hearing  of  those 
arms,  requested  some  of  their  members  to  examine  and  send  them 
down,  intending  an  application  to  the  Assembly  to  have  them  re- 
paired at  the  public  expense,  and  put  into  the  hands  of  such  asso- 
ciators as  were  unable  to  furnish  themselves,  and  who  were  to  give 
receipts  for  them  to  be  returned, Tf  not  lost  in  actual  service.  At 
this  time  arms  were  sought  for  with  great  assiduity  by  every  one  who 
wished  to  be  instructed  in  the  military  discipline.  The  inhabitants 
of  Cumberland  county,  knowing  also  of  the  provincial  muskets, 


298  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

were  beforehand  with  us,  and  having  the  first  choice,  took  between 
sixty  and  seventy  of  the  best  of  them  (for  which  Mr.  Carson  has  a 
receipt)  leaving  a  parcel  of  rubbish  which  were  sent  to  this  town, 
consisting  of  barrels  mostly  without  locks  and  stocks,  and  all  of 
them  so  covered  with  rust  that  they  were  thought  almost  unfit  for 
use,  and  scarcely  worth  repairing.  Many  of  them  were  loaded  and 
had  probably  been  so  for  many  years.  Some  of  the  poor  associators 
here  took  the  barrels,  and  with  much  labor  had  them  cleaned.  By 
the  help  of  some  old  locks  which  about  this  time  were  found  in  a 
garret  in  this  town  (without  an  owner)  and  were  distributed 
amongst  them,  they  had  them  put  into  such  repair  as  to  serve  them 
to  exercise  with.  These  persons  have  been  at  a  considerable  ex- 
pense in  putting  them  in  the  order  they  now  are ;  and  if  they  are 
deprived  of  them,  are  not  able  to  purchase  others.  There  are  a  few 
indeed  of  the  best  of  the  firelocks  which  we  think  could  safely  be 
trusted  to  for  real  service.  To  take  the  arms  from  the  poor  people 
under  such  circumstances  would  greatly  damp  their  martial  spirit. 

We  conceive  it  our  duty  to  mention  these  things  to  the  Commit- 
tee of  Safety.  If  that  honorable  Board,  nevertheless,  shall  be  of 
opinion  that  such  firelocks  will  be  of  use  and  will  direct  in  what 
manner  the  people  who  have  been  at  expense  in  repairing  them  are 
to  be  reimbursed,  we  shall  cheerfully  exert  ourselves  to  the  utmost 
of  our  power  in  calling  them  in,  and  forwarding  them  to  Philadel- 
phia. 

This,  gentlemen,  is  the  first  opportunity  we  have  had  of  answer- 
ing your  letter  relative  to  the  arms.  Give  us  leave  to  assure  you, 
it  will  afford  us  great  pleasure  to  be  instrumental  in  any  degree  to 
the  safety  of  the  city  of  Philadelphia.  We  feel  very  sensibly  the 
situation  of  your  citizens ;  we  deem  ourselves  most  strongly  bound 
to  give  every  assistance  in  our  power  to  repel  any  attack  which 
may  be  attempted  against  you,  and  humbly  trust  we  shall  not  be 
deficient  in  the  day  of  danger. 

Your  letter  of  the  19th  October,  came  to  our  hands.  According 
to  your  desire  a  proper  guard  from  hence  conducted  Dr.  Kearsley 
to  York,  and  took  a  receipt  for  his  safe  delivery  to  the  committee 
there.  J.  Brooks  remains  confined  in  our  gaol.  A  sub-committee 
of  twelve  gentlemen  residing  in  and  near  this  town,  has  been  ap- 
pointed to  see  that  your  sentence  and  resolves  respecting  Brooks  be 
carried  into  execution,  and  no  person  is  permitted  to  visit  him  but 
in  the  presence  of  one  or  more  of  those  gentlemen. 

By  order  of  the  committee  of  Lancaster  county. 

The  foregoing  answer  read  at  the  table,  was  unanimously  ap- 
proved of,  and  it  is  ordered  that  the  same  be  transmitted  to  the 
Committee  of  Safety  by  the  first  conveyance. 

Adjourned  until  to-morrow,  eight  o'clock.

FRIDAY,  November  10th,  1775. 

The  committee  met  according  to  adjournment. 

Present :  The  same  members  who  attended  yesterday,  and  more- 
over Joseph  Lytle  for  Rapho  township. 

Upon  motion, 

Resolved,  That  in  case  any  of  the  gun-smiths,  in  the  county  of 
Lancaster,  upon  application  made  to  them  by  the  members  of  the 
committees  of  the  respective  townships  to  which  they  belong,  shall 
refuse  to  go  to  work  and  make  their  proportion  of  the  firelocks  and 
bayonets  required  of  this  county,  by  the  honorable  House  of  As- 
sembly, within  two  weeks  from  such  application  agreeable  to  the 
patterns,  at  the  Philadelphia  prices,  such  gun-smiths  shall  have 
their  names  inserted  in  the  minutes  of  this  committee  as  enemies 
to  their  country,  and  published  as  such,  and  the  tools  of  the  said 
gun-smiths  so  refusing  shall  betaken  from  them,  and  moreover  the 
said  gun-smiths  shall  not  be  permitted  to  carry  on  their  trades  un- 
til they  shall  engage  to  go  to  work  as  aforesaid,  nor  shall  leave  their 
respective  places  of  residence  until  the  arms  are  completed. 

Audit  is  further  resolved,  That  the  Committee  of  Correspondence 
and  Observation  do  take  especial  care  that  their  resolves  be  car- 
ried into  execution. 

Christian  Isch  and  Peter  Reigart  appeared  in  committee,  and 
agreed  to  set  to  work  on  Monday,  the  twentieth  day  of  November 
•instant,  and  make  muskets  and  bayonets  for  this  county,  (part  of 
the  number  required  from  this  county,  by  the  honorable  House  of 
Assembly,)  at  the  Philadelphia  prices;  and  that  they  will  confine 
themselves  to  that  work  entirely  from  that  time  to  the  first  day  of 
March  next,  and  furnish  as  many  as  they  can  possibly  complete  in 
the  time,  and  deliver  the  same  to  the  commissioners  of  the  county 
or  this  committee. 

Michael  Withers  appeared  in  committee,  and  agreed  to  set  to 
work  as  soon  as  he  hath  completed  a  few  guns  which  he  hath  now 
in  hand,  and  make  muskets  and  bayonets  for  this  county,  (part  of 
the  number  required  from  this  county  by  the  honorable  House  of 
Assembly,)  at  the  Philadelphia  prices ;  that  he  will  confine  himself 
and  his  workmen  to  that  work  and  carry  on  the  same  as  expedi- 
tiously  as  he  can,  and  that  he  will  deliver  in  to  the  commissioners 
and  assessors  of  this  county  or  to  this  committee  as  many  muskets. 

[Here  the  minutes  of  the  Committee  of  Correspondence  abruptly 
terminates.  It  is  supposed  that  they  were  in  possession  of  Jasper 
Yeates,  chairman  of  the  committee.]

MARCHING  ORDERS,  1777,  1778,  1779. 

PRESIDENT  WHARTON  TO  COL.  GALBRAITH. 


PHILADELPHIA,  April  25th,  1777. 

SIR  :  Agreeable  to  the  enclosed  resolve  of  Congress,  and  with  the 
Advice  of  the  Board  of  War,  I  have  determined  that  the  Counties 
of  Philadelphia,  Bucks,  Cumberland,  Berks,  and  Northampton, 
send  their  Proportion  of  Militia  to  Bristol,  to  form  a  Camp  at  or 
near  that  Borough  The  Counties  of  Chester,  Lancaster,  and 
York,  to  form  a  Camp  at  or  near  Chester. 

Your  County  is  to  furnish  six  hundred  Men,  to  march  immediately 
to  Chester  with  as  many  arms  and  accoutrements  as  can  be  had  in 
the  County.  If  the  first  Class  does  not  amount  to  that  number,  the 
second  Class  also  are  to  march. 

You  are  to  procure  by  purchase  or  otherwise  a  Blanket  for  each 
Man  (which  is  to  remain  the  property  of  the  State,)  money  will  be 
sent  you  for  this  purpose.  If  they  cannot  be  procured  by  purchase 
they  must  be  impressed  by  their  value  paid,  this  is  to  be  done  in  a 
way  that  will  give  the  least  offence. 

You  are  to  exert  yourself  to  the  utmost  to  Comply  with  this 
Order  with  all  possible  expedition,  as  the  Enemy  are  preparing  to 
make  an  immediate  attack  on  this  State. 

I  have  the  honor  to  be,  with  great  respect,  Your  most  Obedient, 
humble  Servant, 

THO.  WHARTON,  JR,  Pre".

Lieutenant  of  the  County  of  Lancaster.

May  2d,  1777. 

SIR  :  Annexed  hereunder  you  have  the  President's  requisition  for 
Six  Hundred  men  from  this  County,  the  Irregular  order  that  re- 
turns have  been  made  in,  Prevents  me  from  calling  on  you  for  your 
exact  Quoto  of  men.  I  desire  that  as  soon  as  your  Companies  which 


474  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

form  your  Battalion  have  drawn  their  rank,  that  you  furnish  one- 
full  Company  agreeable  to  the  Militia  Act,  on  the  President's  re- 
quisition without  delay.  Nessesaries  that  are  wanting,  you  see  wi^ 
be  answered. 

In  haste  I  am  your  Humble  Serv', 

BARTREM  GALBRAITH.

PAXTANG,  11th  May,  1777. 

DEAR  SIR  :  Yours  I  recd  last  Night  but  cannot  possibly  comply 
with  your  Request,  as  we  have  too  much  Divisions  in  this  Depart- 
ment, the  five  Sub-divisions  laid  off  in  Paxton  met  tolerably  well 
except  the  Germans,  who  seem  chiefly  all  to  stand  aloof,  three  of 
the  Companies  chose  their  officers  very  well,  and  the  other  two  ne- 
glected. There  was  no  disputes  about  pay,  but  one  of  them  seemed 
all  desirous  of  being  officers,  and  the  other  all  Privates ;  declining 
any  commissions  that  were  offered.  I  have  promised  my  attend- 
ance in  one  of  these  Companies  to-Morrow ;  as  to  the  Dispute  about 
pay,  I  think  if  they  would  have  the  least  Consideration,  might  be 
soon  removed,  it  might  answer  well  enough  to  draw  out  a  few  men 
when  there  was  no  compulsion  nor  Law  to  put  every  Man  on  an 
equal  Ballance  in  expense  of  the  War,  but  as  the  Law  is  regulated 
at  present,  except  the  whole  State  in  general,  or  at  least  the  whole 
Battalion  would  condescend  to  that  Plan,  it  would  be  in  vain  for 
one  Company  to  pretend  to  it,  except  they  would  think  themselves 
wiser  law-makers  than  the  Choice  of  the  State,  because  each  Com- 
pany or  Draught  is  made  out  of  the  whole  Battalion,  and  if  they 
should  deviate  from  the  Laws  of  the  State,  they  would  be  a  Deri- 
sion to  all  the  rest.  You  can  Inform  them  that  if  they  don't  choose 
for  themselves,  the  Lieutenants  will  be  under  the  Necessity  of 
choosing  for  them.  And  you  will  be  good  enough  to  consider  and 
inform  yourself  what  Men  will  be  most  likely  to  suit,  if  that  should 
be  the  Case,  that  you  can  recommend  them  to  us.  I  had  a  letter 
from  Col.  Galbraith  last  Night  Desiring  I  would  give  you  Word  to 
bring  the  Report  of  your  Battalion,  Companies,  Rank,  and  Draughts 
to  him  at  Lancaster  next  Wednesday,  and  draw  for  Rank  with  the 
other  Colonels. 

In  haste  I  am  your  H'ble  Servant, 

JOSHUA  ELDER.

LANCASTER,  May  15th,  1777. 

SIR  :  In  consequence  of  your  late  Orders  from  me  to  hold  the  first 
Class  of  each  Company  in  your  Battalion  in  Readiness,  with  arms 
and  properly  Equipt  with  every  other  Necessary  for  your  Immediate 
March  to  Chester  on  the  Delaware,  I  Desire  that  such  who  fall 
into  that  Draught,  and  Conscienciously  scruple  the  bearing  of  Arms, 
may  be  reported  to  me  by  you,  or  your  Order  Immediately,  that  I 
may  find  Substitutes  in  their  Room  and  Stead,  and  at  the  same  Time 
make  to  me  a  list  of  such  who  may  be  willing  to  serve  as  Substitutes 
within  your  Bounds.  Which  orders,  you'll  on  all  Occasions  of  the 
like  kind,  observe. 

I  have  the  Honor,  Sir,  to  be  your  Humble  Servant,

you,  by  the  first  Opportunity,  to  hold  the  first  Class  in  your  Bat- 
talion under  Marching  Orders,  ready  for  further  Orders,  he  was

SIR  :  Since  my  last  to  the  different  Colonels  (which  by  this  Time 
I  expect  you're  made  acquainted  with)  on  my  way  to  Lancaster 
met  with  an  Express  from  the  President  ordering  the  March  of  the 
second  Class,  &  to  hold  the  3"1  in  Readiness,  of  which,  By  this  my 
order,  I  hope  you'll  Notice  your  Brother  as  well  as  Col.  Rogers's 
Battalion  on  that  head,  that  2  Classes  rjust  Immediately  March  & 

the  3*  held  in  Readiness. 

In  haste  I'm  y"  &c,

SIR  :  The  above  is  a  Copy  of  a  Letter  from  Col.  Galbraith,  which 
I  recd  late  last  Night,  by  which  you  see  there's  the  greatest  Neces- 
sity for  Our  utmost  Exertions.  I  recd  a  verbal  Message  from  Major 
Brown  of  yr  Battalion  to  attend  an  Appeal  to  be  held  at  Hanover 
next  Monday,  I  would  be  glad  to  be  informed  at  what  Time  I  should 
attend,  or  if  you  are  to  have  the  Lieutenant,  or  another  Sub-Lieu- 
tenant &  Magistrate  or  by  the  Lieutenant's  orders  as  we  must  En- 
deavour to  walk  in  as  straight  a  Line  as  possible  upon  these  occa- 
sions, or  if  I  cou'd  be  excused,  as  I  shall  have  enough  to  do  in  this 
Battalion  to  procure  substitutes,  there  being  so  many  Germans  all 
of  whom  refuse  going.  O  their  Clay  cold  heads,  &  Luke  warm 
hearts.  Sir,  by  all  that's  dear  &  sacred  to  us,  let  me  entreat  you 
not  to  spare  the  least  pains  to  dispatch  your  Classes,  &  if  you  feel 
the  Loss  &  Trouble  of  it  now,  I  hope  you'll  find  the  Honor  &  Bene- 
fit of  it  hereafter. 

I'm,  Sir,  yr  h'ble  servant,

DONEGAL,  16th  June,  1777. 

SIR  :  In  consequence  of  Orders  from  the  President  of  the  Execu- 
tive Council  of  the  13th  Ins',  as  well  as  from  Generals  Mifflin,  Arm- 
strong &  Potter  of  the  14th  at  night,  requesting  the  March  of  the 
Militia,  and  giving  me  information  of  General  How's  Army  rapidly 
Marching  thro  the  Jerseys,  being  at  Rockey  run  5  Miles  from  Prince, 
ton  on  Saturday  last,  Do  order  you,  with  all  expedition  to  get  in 
readiness  (agreeable  to  former  orders)  the  first  Class  of  your  Militia 
to  March  to  Chester  on  Dele  ware,  and  notify  the  Second  Class  to 
hold  themselves  in  readyness  to  March  at  a  Moment's  warning. 
You  must  agree  with  Substitutes  in  the  room  of  those  who  deny 
Marching,  (notwithstanding  my  Publication)  at  such  rates  as  you 
can,  with  the  advice  of  the  nearest  Sub-Lieutenant  who's  agree- 
ment shall  be  Confirmed  by  me  and  at  the  same  time  take  Care  that 
no  Substitutes  are  taken  out  of  the  Second  Class  for  the  first.  The 


AND  MILITIA  OF  THE  REVOLUTION.  477 

Cityzens  of  Philad*  have  made  up  all  variances  &  marched  Yester- 
day Morning  unanimously  in  defence  of  their  Country.  In  a  word. 
Sir,  I  hope  you'l  not  loose  a  moment's  time  in  doing  the  necisary. 
Everything  will  be  provided  for  the  men  at  Lancr  or  at  the  Camp, 
except  Blankets. 

I'm  in  the  greatest  haste,  Sir,  your  Humble  Serv*,

DONEGAL, .£<?'"  June,  1777. 

SIR  :  By  a  letter  from  the  President  in  Council  of  the  25th  Ins*, 
recd  this  Morning,  Countermands  the  March  of  the  first  Class  of 
the  Militia,  on  the  retreat  of  General  How's  troops  from  Summer- 
set &  Brunswick  to  Amboy  &  Staten  Island,  yet  at  the  Same  time 
to  hold  in  readiness  at  a  moment's  warning,  as  no  doubt  they  may 
be  soon  called,  Should  How  attempt  our  Capes.  I  have  wrote  to 
the  President  &  expect  in  a  few  days  his  answer,  when  you'll  re- 
ceive Particular  orders  from  me.  Continue  Such  Substitutes  as  are 
already  provided  for  the  protection  of  the  civil  Authority,  but  re- 
commend to  the  Majistrates  to  proceed  only  to  collecting  of  the 
fines  for  days  of  exercise,  for  a  few  days,  until  the  President's  An- 
swer comes  to  hand.  I  have  sent  a  few  Notices  amongst  you  which 
I  expect  you'll  Observe.  When  I  was  in  your  Country  our  people 
had  a  brush  with  a  number  of  riotors  in  which  one  of  our  people 
was  killed  by  the  Stroak  of  the  Coulter  of  a  Plough  &  three  of  the 
others  wounded,  which  I  hope  will  be  the  means  of  putting  a  Stopp 
to  other  Insurrections  of  the  like  kind. 

In  haste,  rest  your  Humble  Serv',

DONEGAL,  July  15th,  1777. 

SIR  :  Yours  of  yesterday  came  to  hand  by  Captain  Hay,  which 
Surprises  me  no  little,  to  find  that  uneasiness  should  be  now  arris- 
ing  amongst  you,  at  the  very  time  it  ought  not  to  subsist. 

By  Capt.  Hay  I  have  sent  you  the  rules  by  which  the  Continental 


478  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

Armey  is  governed,  to  which  every  Officer  &  Soldier  now  with  you 
is  subject  (or  ought  to  be)  which  you'l  cause  to  be  read  at  the  Head 
of  the  Company  for  their  Instruction  as  to  that  of  their  duty,  that 
should  they  offend,  or  goe  out  of  the  line  of  duty  it  may  not  be  un- 
known to  them,  as  I'm  determined  if  in  my  power  to  preserve  good 
order.  You  will  call  or  appoint  the  men  to  meet  twice  a  week  at 
your  house  or  elsewhere  as  you  shall  see  meet,  to  receive  their  far- 
ther Instructions  which  shall  be  handed  you  from  me,  as  the  exi- 
giency  of  affairs  may  require,  but  at  the  same  time  they  (the  Sol- 
diers) are  to  take  care  that  no  expense  is  accrued  to  the  State  for 
their  mentainance  during  such  Intervals,  their  hands  must  clear 
their  teeth.  As  the  President  has  put  it  in  my  power  to  continue 
the  guard  at  my  pleasure,  I  do  think  proper  to  continue  the  Substi- 
tutes until  the  civil  authority  has  no  further  demand  for  us ;  it's  not 
the  business  of  this,  that,  or  the  other  Class,  how  the  present  Class, 
serves  their  tower  of  duty  or  yet  the  people  for  whom  they  are  Im- 
ployed ;  as  the  house  of  Assembly  has  appointed  me  the  drudge  in 
that  respect,  for  those  very  mute  good  People,  &  have  boren  the 
burthen  for  them,  I'm  also  determined  that  they  shall  give  me  a 
Liberty  to  Judge  for  them,  so  that  if  they  make  use  of  Language 
let  it  be  amongst  themselves,  as  I  hope  ever  to  be  able  to  act  agree- 
able to  my  duty  without  Partiality  to  Persons  while  in  my  present 
station.  I  hope  the  Substitutes  will  behave  themselves  becoming 
men  of  candour  and  probity.  I'm  their  mark  for  their  wages. 
In  haste,  yours  &c.,

possible.

SIR:  In  Consequence  of  the  President's  alarming  Intelligence  to 
me  recd  late  last  night,  of  the  enemy's  near  approach  to  our  Metropo- 
lis, dated  the  28th  &  31st  Ultimo,  I  order  you  by  all  the  ties  of  Virtue, 
Honour  &  Love  of  your  Country,  as  freemen,  determined  to  de- 
fend &  protect  your  enestimable  &  just  Rights  &  Privileges,  to 
march  without  Loss  of  time  the  First,  Second  &  Third  Class  of  your 
Battalion  to  Chester  on  Delaware,  every  man  provided  with  a  Blan- 
ket, and  Arm  as  many  as  within  the  Bounds  of  your  to  call  for 
your  People,  agreeable  to  the  President's  letter  of  the  28th.  You  see 
that,  that  of  the  31st  call,  for  all  such  who  value  the  freedom  of  their 
Country  to  turn  out  as  Voulentiers,  which  I  hope  will  be  sufficient 
to  Induce  every  good  man  without  my  further  Arguments,  &  hope 
that  the  forwardness  of  your  Battalion  in  this  respect  will  crown 
them  with  honour  in  a  future  day.  I  have  sent  you  coppies  of  the 
President's  letters  which  will  the  better  enable  you  to  proceed  in 
this  Business,  &  to  which  I  hope  you'll  conform.  Provide  Waggons 
for  your  Baggage  with  whom  I  will  Settle  &  Pay.  I  need  not  use 
further  Arguments  with  you,  as  our  Hearvists  are  in ;  now  or  never 
is  the  day  that  the  Love  of  our  Country  will  appear  in  us,  &  rest, 
yours  with  best  wishes  for  the  most  Generous  Sentiments  of  your 
Battalion  on  this  Action,  &c.

Any  arms  that  may  be  wanting  will  be  had  at  Chester.  Such  of 
the  2  or  third  Class  that  may  be  employed  as  Substitutes  answer  for 
themselves  from  this  day.

DONEGAL,  9tlt  August,  1777. 

SIR  :  By  Mr.  Willson  &  another  young  man  I  recd  yours  dated 
this  day,  in  regard  to  an  Election  of  one  of  your  Companies;  true 
the  mode  on  which  they  have  proceeded  in  their  task  is  unpreci- 
dented,  but  yet  at  the  same  time  it  is  out  of  my  power  to  Publish 
another  Election  for  them,  but  it  is  yours ;  as  you  have  not  as  yet 
made  a  general  return  to  me  of  your  Battalion,  it  is  in  your  Power 
to  accomodate  small  differences  of  that  kind  before  you  make  such 


480  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

return  to  me.  The  above  is  what  I  would  recomend  to  you  in  the 
present  matter  immediately,  for  should  I  notice  them  on  such  an 
occation,  I  might  do  nothing  else  through  the  county. 

You  ought  to  give  the  officers  of  each  Draught  as  they  march 
their  orders,  until  they  meet  their  Commanding  Officer ;  to  draw 
rations  from  the  Commissarys  of  the  Continent  until  they  arive  at 
camp  &ca,  take  every  means  to  please  your  people,  that  you  can 
consistant  with  the  Law. 

I'm,  Sir,  yours  &c.,

DONEGAL,  August  10th,  2777. 

Sin :  Having  the  opportunity  of  Mr.  Barnet  am  to  let  you  know 
that  you  ought  to  desire  your  people  to  provide  their  own  rations 
until  they  arrive  to  Lancaster,  as  the  publick  Houses  are  entirely 
run  out  of  Provisions  &  they  are  not  to  be  had  for  money,  so  that 
the  people  who  march  will  be  disapointed  unless  they  provide  them- 
selves ;  it's  a  matter  that  will  be  easiely  don  as  their  Baggage  Wag- 
gons to  come  along.  Sir  this  you'l  take  particular  care  of. 
I  rest  your  H'ble  Serv*,

PAXTANG,  24th  August,  1777. 

Sm :  I  this  Moment  by  Express  from  Col.  Galbraith  at  Lancaster, 
have  Intelligence  that  the  Enemies  Fleet  have  come  far  up  Chesa- 
peek-Bay,  &  are  landing  their  Troops  above  Baltimore— he  orders 
me  to  have  the  Militia  in  my  District  in  Readiness  to  March  in  a 
Moment's  Warning  with  such  Arms  as  can  be  procured,  those  who 
have  no  Arms  must  march  without  them  &  will  be  supplied  at  Lan^ 
caster,  he  does  not  mention  any  particular  Number  of  Classes  but 
seems  to  Intimate  the  whole  of  the  Militia.  Now  as  your  Battalion 
has  always  been  understood  to  be  in  that  District  I  expect -you'll 
PMV  particular  attention  to  the  above  orders  &  have  your  Battalion 
duly  Notified  &  in  the  utmost  Readiness  until  further  orders— He 


AND  MILITIA  OF  THE  REVOLUTION.  481 

&  Mr.  Atlee  likewise  Inform  me  that  it  is  the  orders  of  the  Board 
of  War  to  have  the  1'risoners  removed  from  Lancaster  to  Reading 
&  Lebanon.  You'll  therefore  have  all  the  Hessian  Prisoners  (& 
others  if  any)  in  yr  Battalion  Collected  as  soon  as  may  be  &  sent  to 
Lebanon  under  a  proper  Guard  where  Mess".  Ort,  C.  Grub  &  Thorn 
will  Receive  them  &  take  Charge  of  them,  you'll  take  Care  to  keep 
a  List  of  the  Prisoners  &  let  the  officer  of  the  Guard  take  these  Gen- 
tlemen's Rec4  for  them  &  how  many  when  Delivered  &  forward  the 
List  to  me.  I  imagin  the  Prisoners,  if  any  in  your  Bounds,  are 
Chiefly  among  the  Menonists,  which  will  require  you  to  be  very 
particular  in  Collecting  them  as  no  Doubt  many  of  them  will  En- 
deavour to  Conceal  them  if  possible. 

I  am  Sir  with  the  utmost  Regard,

SIR  :  When  I  seen  you  lust,  forgot  to  let  you  know  that  the  Pre- 
cident  requested  me  to  procure  a  Troop  of  Light  horse  if  Posable, 
for  which  purpose  have  called  on  each  Colo,  for  four  from  his  Batt" ; 
they  are  to  provide  their  own  horses  &  and  they  must  be  Intelliga- 
ble  people,  young  men  of  Creidit  on  whom  we  can  depend  for  their 
Integrity— an  answer  to  this  I  hope  you'l  soon  be  able  to  Give— it 
is  to  be  hoped  that  your  people  will  turn  out  generaly  to  the  ensue- 
ing  Election,  a  ticket  is  to  be  settled  to-morrow  &  opportunity  did 
not  serve  to  give  you  timily  notice,  but  hope  that  those  called  into- 
Service  from  your  quarter  may  answer  that  end.  By  all  means  ex- 
cite your  people  to  turn  out,  as  there  may  perhaps  be  something  to 
fear  from  those  who  we  know  has  hitherto  been  Inimical  to  our 
Cause. 

I  am  your  Assured  friend  and  Humble  Serv1, 

BARTREM  GALBRAITH. 

X.  B.  A  Court  of  Apeal  will  be  soon  held  in  your  Batt11  of  which 
you'l  get  notice  soon. 


COL.  GALBRAITII  TO  COL.  ROGERS. 

LANCASTER,  25th  Ocr,  7777. 

SIR  :  General  Washington  hath  written  to  the  Council  in  the  Most 
pressing  terms,  for  a  more  effectual  Aid  of  men  <fc  arms  than  has. 
hitherto  been  afforded  him ;  expressing  his  great  surprise  to  see 
the  good  people  of  this  Commonwealth  so  backward  to  take  the  field 
in  their  own  defence.  In  concequence  of  which  the  Council  lias- 
called  on  me  for  the  Sixth  &  Seventh  Class  of  the  Militia  from  this 
County  to  March  Immediately  to  Camp,  equipped  each  man  with  a 
Blanket  &  what  Arms  can  posably  be  collected  let  them  belong  tu 
whom  they  .will.  This  you1!  please  to  take  notice  of  &  perform  with 
prudence  &  care  agreeable  to  former  orders  given  you  by  me.  Pro- 
vided the  above  class's  do  not  turn  out  as  they  ought,  I'm  also  Au- 
thorized to  call  out  the  next  two  Succeeding  Class's  &  march  them 
to  Camp. 

I  could  wish  that  you  would  recomend  to  your  People  to  lay'aside 
every  little  tho1  of  offending  their  Neighbors  by  being  Active  in 
turning  them  out  in  their  Class's;  if  they  do  not,  the  concequence 
is,  that  the  burthen  delinquents  ought  to  bear,  Must  be  heaped  on 
our  own  Shoulders ;  a  glaring  instance  of  this  you  have  in  the  twa

last  Class's  called  for  here,  which  must  be  the  Eighth  &  first.  Let 
us  then  follow  the  example  of  the  Eastern  Militia  <te  Serve  How  & 
his  Armey,  as  they  have  Burgoyne  &  his  under  General  Gates,  which 
if  we  turn  out  is  in  our  power  positively,  unless  kind  Providence 
has  otherwise  determined.  Council  also  requests  me  to  Invite  all 
who  will  turn  out  as  volunteers,  that  their  Services  will  be  thank- 
fully rec'1  and  recompenced  ;  and  that  the  Same  time  those  who  have 
heretofore  omitted  going  in  their  respective  Class's,  that  will  now 
turn  out,  their  Services  will  be  rec'1  as  a  full  Compensation  for  their 
former  neglect.  Here  I  leave  you,  with  my  sincere  wishes  that  the 
Spirits  of  your  People  may  be  so  Animated  on  the  late  Success  of  our 
American  Arms,  (beyond  everything  to  be  looked  for)  that  they 
will  turn  out  to  a  Man,  as  called  for,  &  wipe  away  the  Stigma  now 
at  our  doors. 

I  am  witli  respect  your  Humble  Serv',

SIR  :  In  Pursuance  of  Orders  from  Col°.  Galbraith  I  must  request 
you  will  without  Loss  of  Time  call  out  the  21,  3d  &  4th  Classes  of 
your  Battn.  to  march  to  Sunbury  against  the  Indians,  to  meet  at 
Garber's  Mills  next  Tuesday  where  they  will  be  supplied  with  Arms 
&  Ammunition  ;  any  who  have  Arms  of  their  own  let  them  bring 
them  lest  there  may  be  a  Scarcity,  &  let  every  Man  bring  a  Side  if 
possible  as  the  Salvation  of  the  Crops  in  Northumberland  would 
pay  the  Expence  of  the  whole  Expedition.  Let  the  Delinquents  of 
the  first  Class  &  every  other  Person  know  that  if  they  turn  out  on 
this  Important  Occasion  &  perform  a  Tour  it  will  be  allowed  as 
their  Tour  let  their  class  be  what  it  will. 

I  suppose  you  will  Rendezvous  in  your  Batt".  on  Monday  you'll 
be  good  enough  to  send  an  Express  to  Col.  Ort  &  Justice  Green  to 
attend  &  give  the  people  an  Opportunity  of  an  Appeal,  as  I  must 
attend  in  Paxton.  I'm  thus  far  on  my  Return  from  Philada.  &  ex- 
pect  the  Congress  will  fully  consider  the  Distresses  of  our  Frontiers. 
I  cou'd  give  you  Details  of  News  as  long  as  my  Arm  if  Time  wou'd 
Admit.  Every  thing  from  that  Quarter  bears  the  most  favorable 
Aspect,  the  French  Fleet  arrived  off  the  Delaware  Capes  last  Friday 
with  the  French  Ambassador  on  board,  the  Reception  of  whom,  & 
the  reading  of  so  many  Packets  &  Expresses  as  came  to  hand  took 
up  the  Congress  Time  so  that  it  was  not  in  their  Power  to  go  into 
that  business  before  Tuesday.  The  Fleet  took  three  English  Battle 
Ships  on  their  Arrival  in  Chesapeak  Bay  &  our  Capes  &  proceeded 
Immediately  to  New  York  after  the  Enemy.  You  may  be  asur'd 
there's  warm  work  there  before  this  Time.

manded from  this  County  have  not  turned  out  to  March  to  Sunbury 
agreeable  to  their  late  Orders,  have  thought  proper  to  give  them  one 
other  Chance  before  their  Fines  are  distrained  from  them  on  Ac- 
count of  their  late  Delinquency ;  Therefore  sucli  who  will  now  turn

Inhabitants  there  while  putting  in  their  spring  crops  &  until  a  cer- 
tain number  of  men  can  be  raised  who  are  called  Rangers.  I  have 
called  upon  two  Battus  &  do  not  find  a  sufficient  number  to  march, 
which  reduces  me  to  the  necessity  of  calling  on  your  Sixth  class  which 
comes  nixt  of  course,  you  are  to  order  the  Sixth  class  of  your  Battn 
to  meet  on  Monday  the  26th  at  your  Gen1  place  of  Parade  where  an 
apeal  by  law  will  be  held  of  which  place  you  will  acquaint  Adam

cause  a  report  to  be  made  to  me  that  due  provision  may  be  made 
for  the  Marching  troops,  &  at  the  same  time  them  a  pointed  to  meet

of  men  wanted,  &  as  my  orders  are  express  to  Call  Class  after  Class 
until  the  number  of  three  hundr  men  are  Compleet,  therefore  the 
Eighth  class  of  your  Batt".  is  hereby  ordered  to  randisvouse  at  John 
Dixon's  on  Monday  the  23'J  Ins1,  where  an  appeal  will  be  held  as  di-

Class  are  to  be  forthwith  marched  to  Coxestown,  there  to  be  formed 
into  Companies  from  the  Several  Battns.  I  do  not  see  any  other 
method  that  can  be  fallen  on  from  the  Smallness  of  their  numbers. 
I  once  more  exort  the  Officers  to  a  faithf  ull  discharge  of  their  duty, 
as  they  may  depend  no  farther  lenity  will  be  Shown  them  for  ne-

THE  GENERAL  COMMITTEE  TO  THE  COMMITTEE 
OF  LANCASTER. 


PHILAD%  l  Octobr,  1775. 

GENTLEMEN:  We  are  informed  that  there  are  some  of  the  Pro- 
vincial Muskets  in  the  hands  of  the  Military  Associators  and  others 
of  your  County.  The  present  gloomy  prospect  of  Americans  affairs 
and  the  daily  expectation  there  is  of  some  Ships  of  War  being  sent 
to  awe  &  intimidate  if  not  to  destroy  this  City  (as  we  are  informed) 
makes  it  consistent  with  our  duty  to  take  every  method  in  our 
power  to  render  ineffectual  all  their  hostile  and  tyranical  purposes — 
nor  have  we  neglected  or  left  any  probable  means  unessayd  to  put 
this  City  &  Province  in  a  compleat  posture  of  defence.  But  un- 
happily we  find  that  when  we  have  built  &  equipped  a  number  of 
Boats  of  War  and  nearly  manned  them  with  their  compliment  of 
men  we  are  destitute  of  small  arms  to  furnish  them  with,  nor  is  it 
in  our  power  to  procure  any  either  by  purchase  or  otherwise.  This 
lays  us  under  the  necessity  of  applying  to  you  with  a  request  that 
you  will  call  in  the  said  Provincial  arms  and  send  them  to  this 
Committee  with  all  the  Expedition  cSc  dispatch  in  your  power. 
Your  performance  of  tins  request  will  manifest  your  attachment 
to  the  generel  interests  of  the  Colony,  give  confidence  to  those  that 
are  most  immediately  exposed  to  the  insults  of  the  enemy  and  en- 
courage a  vigourous  opposition.  Any  expences  that  shall  accrue  by 
the  performance  of  this  desire  will  be  defrayed  by  this  Committee. 

By  order  of  the  Committee  of  Safety.

GENTLEMEN  :  The  Committee  of  Safety  confiding  in  the  zeal  of 
the  Inhabitants  of  Lancaster  County,  in  support  of  those  Rights 
which  America  is  reduced  to,  the  unhappy  alternative,  either  of 
Sacraficeing  to  lawless  ambition  or  Defending  at  the  risque  of  all 
that  is  Valuable,  have  therefore  determined  to  send  to  your  care

under  a  Guard  a  certain  I.  Brookes  who  has  been  Convicted  of  hold- 
ing a  traiterous  Correspondance  with  some  of  the  British  Ministry, 
and  of  having  Communicated  Intelligence,  that  has  a  tendency  to 
exasperate  them  against  the  Americans  and  provoke  them  to  an  In- 
vasion of  this  Colony— requesting  that  you  will  keep  his  Person  in 
safety  from  any  acts  of  Violence,  and  see  the  Sentence  pf  this  Com- 
mittee put  in  execution,  a  Copy  of  which  you  have  inclosed. 

Under  the  same  guard  we  have  sent  Docr  John  Kearsley  (Con- 
victed of  Similar  offences)  who  is  Ordered  to  be  Confined  in  York- 
Town.  We  request  that  you  will  appoint  a  Suitable  Guard  (to  re- 
lieve those  who  escort  him  from  this  City)  to  Conduct  him  in  Safety 
to  York-Town,  and  Deliver  him  to  the  Care  of  the  Committee 
there. 

A  state  of  the  Evidence  exhibited  against  them  with  the  nature 
of  their  crimes  is  intended  shortly  to  be  published,  Copies  of  which 
will  be  transmitted  to  you.

THE  LANCASTER  COMMITTEE  TO  ROBERT  MORRIS. 


LANCASTER,  November  #, 
GENTLEMEN  :  Your  Letter  of  the  7th  Day  of  October  last  directed 
to  the  Committee  of  Lancaster  County,  respecting  the  Provincial 
Muskets  in  the  Hands  of  the  military  Associators  &  others  in  this 
County,  has  been  laid  before  this  Committee,  and  taken  into  con- 
sideration. 

We  find  that  the  Gentlemen  who  were  the  Committee  of  Corre- 
spondence, appointed  by  the  late  County  Committee,  had  upon  the 
Receipt  of  your  Letter,  published  &  dispursed  Hand  Bills  through- 
out the  County  requiring  the  Persons  possessed  of  such  Muskets 
to  bring  them  in  at  this  Time.  As  none  are  brought  in,  We  beg 
leave  to  mention  to  you  some  Facts  relative  to  those  arms,  &  wait 
your  further  Directions. 

After  the  Troops  raised  by  this  Province  in  the  late  War  were 
disbanded,  a  number  of  Muskets  &  military  Accoutrements  were 
lodged  at  a  Mr.  Carson's  in  Paxtang,  where  they  remained  without 
any  Notice  or  care  being  taken  of  them,  until  the  unhappy  Dis- 
putes between  Great  Britain  &  the  Colonies  rendered  it  indispen- 
sibly  necessary  for  our  Safety  to  associate  &  arm  in  Defence  of  our 
Rights.  The  then  Committee  of  this  County  upon  hearing  of  those 
arms,  requested  some  of  their  members  to  examine  them  &  send 
them  down,  intending  an  application  to  the  Assembly  to  have  them 
repaired  at  the  public  expense,  and  put  into  the  Hands  of  such  As- 
sociators as  were  unable  to  furnish  themselves,  and  who  were  to 
give  Receipts  for  them  to  be  returned,  if  not  lost  in  actual  Service. 
At  this  Time,  arms  were  sought  for  with  great  assiduity  by  every 
one  who  wished  to  be  instructed  in  the  Military  Discipline.  The 
Inhabitants  of  Cumberland  County  knowing  also  of  the  Provincial 
Muskets,  were  beforehand  with  us,  and  having  the  first  choice  took 
between  sixty  and  seventy  of  the  best  of  them,  (for  which  Mr.  Car- 
son has  a  Receipt)  leaving  a  Parcel  of  Rubbish  which  were  sent  to 
this  Town,  consisting  of  Barrels  mostly  without  Locks  &  Stocks, 
and  till  of  them  so  covered  with  Rust,  that  they  were  thought 
almost  unfit  for  use,  &  scarcely  worth  repairing.  Many  of  them 
were  loaded,  and  had  probably  been  so  for  many  years.  Some  of 
the  poorer  Associators  here  took  the  Barrels,  &  with  much  Labour 
had  them  cleansed.  By  the  Help  of  some  old  Locks,  which  about 
this  Time  were  found  in  a  Garret  in  this  Town  (without  an  owner) 
and  were  distributed  amongst  them,  they  had  them  put  in  such 
Impair  as  to  serve  them  to  exercise  with.  These  Persons  have  been 
at  a  considerable  expence  in  putting  the  arms  in  the  order  they  now 
are,  and  if  they  are  deprived  of  them  are  not  able  to  purchase  others. 


506  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

There  are  few  indeed  of  the  best  of  the  Firelocks,  which  we  think 
could  safely  be  trusted  to  for  real  Service. 

We  conceive  it  our  Duty  to  mention  these  things  to  the  Com- 
mittee of  Safety.  To  take  the  arms  from  the  poor  People,  under 
such  circumstances  would  greatly  damp  their  martial  spirit.  If 
that  Honourable  Board  nevertheless  shall  be  of  opinion  that  such 
Firelocks  will  be  of  use,  and  will  direct  in  what  manner  the  People 
who  have  been  at  the  expence  of  repairing  them,  are  to  be  reim- 
bursed, we  shall  cheerfully  exert  ourselves  to  the  utmost  of  our 
Power  in  calling  them  in  and  forwarding  them  to  Pliilad'1. 

This,  Gentlemen,  is  the  first  opportunity  we  have  had  of  answer- 
ing your  Letter  relative  to  the  arms.  Give  us  leave  to  assure  you 
it  will  afford  us  great  Pleasure  to  be  instrumental  in  any  Degree  to 
the  Safety  of  the  City  of  Philadelphia.  We  feel  very  sensibly  the 
Situatio.n  of  your  Citizens.  We  deem  ourselves  most  strongly  bound 
to  give  every  assistance  in  our  Power  to  repel  any  attack  which 
may  be  attempted  against  you,  and  humbly  trust  we  shall  not  be 
deficient  in  the  Day  of  Danger. 

Your  Letter  of  the  19th  October  came  to  our  Hands.  According 
to  your  Desire  a  proper  Guard  from  hence  conducted  Dr.  Kearsley 
to  York,  and  took  a  Receipt  for  his  safe  Delivery  to  the  Committee 
there.  I.  Brooks  remains  confined  in  our  Goal.  A  Sub-Committee 
of  twelve  Gentlemen  residing  in  &  near  this  Town  has  been  ap- 
pointed to  see  that  your  Sentence  &  Resolves  respecting  Brooks  be 
carried  into  execution,  and  no  Person  whatever  is  permitted  to 
visit  him,  but  in  the  Presence  of  one  or  more  of  those  Gentlemen.

GENTLEMEN  :  We  have  considered  your  respectful  answer  to 
our  application  for  the  publick  arms  in  the  County  of  Lancaster 
and  are  fully  satisfied  with  the  reasons  you  assign  for  retaining 
them  for  the  use  of  the  poor  Associators  in  said  County,  and 
have  only  to  acknowledge  your  zeal  in  the  public  Cause  and  to 
desire  you  will  send  to  us  the  names  of  the  persons  in  whose  hands 
the  arms  are  left,  that  it  may  be  known  where  to  apply  for  them  on 
any  emergency  and  that  publick  property  may  be  taken  care  of.

LANCASTER,  December  the  9th,  1775. 

GENTLEMEN  :  After  the  repeated  intercessions  of  1.  Brooks,  the 
Prisoner  sent  to  this  Goal  by  the  Committee  of  Safety,  that  lie 
might  be  permitted  to  write  to  some  Friend  in  England,  relative  to 
his  private  affairs  there,  and  that  he  might  be  indulged  with  inclos- 
ing that  Letter  to  Coll0.  Roberdeau.  The  Committee  here  have  ven- 
tured to  indulge  him,  and  forward  the  inclosed  Letters,  (which  have 
been  wrote  by  him  in  the  presence  of  some  Members  of  this  Commit- 
tee)open,  for  the  perusal  &  Consideration  of  the  Committee  of  Safety, 
who  will  either  suppress  or  forward  them  as  they  shall  think  proper. 

This  Committee  have  gratified  him  thus  far  (altho'  it  seems  con- 
trary to  the  directions  of  the  Committee  of  Safety)  in  hopes  that  lie 
might  have  made  some  interesting  discoveries.  If  any  further 
favours  of  this  kind  are  not  to  be  granted  to  him,  the  Committee 
here  will  in  future  refuse  him,  and  if  in  this  instance  they  have 
done  amiss  hope  to  be  excused.  Great  care  hath  been  taken  that 
no  Pen,  Ink  or  Paper  hath  been  used  by  hi'ni  except  that  made  use 
of  in  writing  these  Letters,  and  in  every  other  respect  the  Commit- 
tee may  be  assured  that  their  directions  as  to  him  have  been  punc- 
tually observed.

LANCASTER,  Dec.  30th  1775. 

DEAR  SIR  :  It  is  with  great  reluctance  I  now  take  the  Liberty  to 
beg  your  attention,  well  Knowing  that  every  moment  of  your  Time 
is  taken  up  in  the  Service  of  your  Country,  But  Justice  to  the 
bearer  Captain  Samuel  Atle  will  not  permit  me  to  be  Silent.  He 
waits  upon  the  Committee  of  Safety  of  this  Province  for  their  Re- 
commendation to  the  Honourable  the  Congress  to  the  Command  of 
one  of  the  Battalions  now  to  be  raised. 

I  have  the  Pleasure  of  a  long  acquaintance  with  him  and  am 
Realy  at  a  loss  for  Words  to  express  my  regard  for  him.  He  is  a 
gentleman  universally  Esteemed  by  his  acquaintances  &  Neighbors 
a  very  warm  Friend  to  the  American  Cause,  and  as  to  his  Knowl-. 
edge  in  the  Military  Arrangement,  I  am  Convinced  there  are  few  in 
the  Province  who  Excell  him.  Colonel  Miles  is  well  acquainted 
with  him  and  his  abilities  in  this  Department,  they  having  Served 
in  the  same  Regiment  in  the  Service  of  this  Province  for  several 
years  during  the  last  War,  to  whom  referr  you  on  this  head.  And 
should  Cap1.  Atle  be  so  happy  as  to  merrit  the  Recommendation  of 
the  Committee  of  Safety  I  have  not  the  most  remote  doubt  but  he 
will  Do  Honour  to  the  appointment. 

Hope  you  will  pardon  me  for  Taking  up  so  much  of  your  Time ;  if 
Consistant  with  your  Judgement  favour  Cap1.  Atle  with  your  Friend- 
ship and  believe  me, 

Dear  Sir,  your  most  Humble  Servant,

however  exact  can  so  fully  answer  the  purpose  of  Instruction  as  an 
actual  Exhibition  of  the  Process  the  Committee  have  resolved  to 
employ  a  Number  of  Persons  to  go  through  the  County  to  instruct 
the  People  in  this  Necessary  Branch  of  Manufacture.  It  is  there- 
fore requested  of  you  to  send  two  Persons  to  this  City  to  obtain  a 
competent  Knowledge  of  the  Method  practiced  at  the  Saltpeter 
Work  here,  that  they  may  be  qualified  to  exhibit. the  Process  to 
such  Inhabitants  of  your  County  as  are  desirous  of  being  useful  to 
their  Country  at  this  important  and  dangerous  Crisis  of  our  Affairs. 
It  is  referred  to  you  to  make  such  agreement  for  the  publick  with 
the  persons  you  employ  on  this  Service  as  you  may  think  just  and 
reasonable.  Their  expenses  to  and  from  the  City  and  while  they 
remain  here  for  Instruction  will  be  also  allowed  by  the  Committee 
of  Safety.

IN  COMMITTEE,  LANCASTER,  January  the  29th,  1776. 
GENTLEMEN  :  The  Committee  have  your  two  favours  of  the  10lh 
instant,  and  agreeable  to  your  request  have  appointed  Doctor  Fred- 
rick Kuhn  of  the  Borough  of  Lancaster  to  receive,  for  the  publick 
Use,  the  Salt-Petre  which  shall  be  made  in  this  County  and  as  they 
have  notified  their  appointment  to  him,  he  is  ready  to  receive 'the 
Orders  of  the  Committee  of  Safety  as  their  Officer  for  this  purpose. 
We  have  also  given  publick  Notice  (by  Hand  Bills)  to  the  Inhabi- 
tants of  this  County  of  this  appointment  and  at  the  same  time  have 
mentioned  our  being  ready  to  receive  the  proposals  of  any  Persons 
who  shall  be  willing  to  go  from  this  County  to  the  Salt-Petre  Works 
in  Philadelphia  for  instruction,  that  they  may  be  qualified  to  ex- 
hibit the  process  to  such  Inhabitants  of  the  County  as  are  desirous 
of  engaging  in  that  necessary  work.  Should  any  Persons  offer,  or 
should  we  have  knowledge  of  any  who  are  willing  &  proper  to  be 
employed  in  this  Service,  we  shall  give  them  every  encouragement 
&  forward  them  to  Philadelphia  agreeable  to  your  directions. 


510  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

We  observe  by  the  Orders  to  the  Officers  recruiting  here  for  the 
Continental  Army  that  they  are  ait  liberty  to  take  all  able  bodied 
Men  between  16  &  50,  bought  Servants  excepted.  Under  these 
orders  the  Gentlemen  recruiting  here  have  inlisted  several  Appren- 
tices in  this  Town,  and  amongst  them,  some  of  the  Gunsmiths' 
Apprentices.  The  necessity  of  keeping  our  Gunsmiths  busily  em- 
ployed in  finishing  the  Arms  required  to  be  furnished  by  this  County 
and  the  assurances  we  had  that  many  of  the  Gunsmiths'  Appren- 
tices intended  to  inlist  (which  upon  examination  we  found  to  be  so) 
induced  us  to  interfere.  We  have  prevailed  upon  Cap1.  Hubley  to 
permit  the  Gunsmiths'  Apprentices  whom  he  had  inlisted  to  return 
&  work  with  their  Masters  &  have  his  promise  with  that  of  the 
other  Gentlemen  recruiting  in  this  Town  not  to  take  any  more  of 
them  untill  we  can  receive  the  opinion  of  the  Congress  or  the  Com- 
mittee of  Safety  on  this  subject.  The  Gunsmiths  assure  us  that  if 
their  apprentices  or  Servants  who  are  employed  in  that  Business 
are  taken  from  them,  they  cannot  go  on  with  their  work.  We  have 
them  all  now  busily  employed  and  many  of  their  apprentices  are  ex- 
ceeding good  Workmen.  We  therefore  beg  the  Sentiments  of  the 
Committee  of  Safety  as  to  this  matter  and  if  an  order  of  Congress 
is  thought  proper  and  necessary  to  prevent  the  inlistment  of  these 
Apprentices,  request  the  Committee  will  procure  it  &  order  it  to  be 
forwarded  to  us,  that  we  may  quiet  the  Minds  of  the  Gunsmiths, 
who  are  very  uneasy,  and  would  be  glad  of  an  excuse  to  lay  by  the 
Musket-Work  &  make  Rifles,  which  are  more  profitable  for  them. 

In  procuring  these  Apprentices  to  be  sent  to  work  with  their 
Masters  and  in  preventing  the  enlistment  of  others  (until  theSenti' 
nients  of  the  Congress  or  Committee  of  Safety  shall  be  known  to 
us)  we  have  acted  with  a  view  to  the  real  Interests  of  our  Country 
&  hope  the  approbation  of  the  Committee  of  Safety  with  their  di- 
rections how  to  conduct  ourselves  in  this  Matter  in  future,  which 
we  shall  punctually  observe. 

The  Soldier  prisoners  here  make  frequent  applications  to  be  suf- 
fered to  inlist  with  our  recruiting  Parties.  We  have  constantly  dis- 
couraged it,  except  in  the  instance  of  two  of  them  who  were  in- 
listed  by  Cap'.  Watson,  wherein  the  inlistments  were  actually  signed 
before  we  knew  of  it.  These  Men  we  directed  to  go  with  Cap1.  Wat- 
son on  the  recruiting  Service,  &  at  the  same  time  promised  their 
former  Cap1.  (Kinnear  of  the  7th  Reg1,  who  behaved  with  a  good 
deal  of  warmth  upon  the  occasion)  that  we  would  take  the  opinion 
of  the  Congress  or  the  Committee  of  Safety  in  this  respect.  We 
beg  leave  to  submit  this  matter  to  the  Committee  &  request  their 
Sentiments  as  to  the  propriety  of  such  inlistments,  according  to 
which  we  shall  govern  ourselves. 

By  Order  of  the  Committee.

1776,  We  the  Commissioners  of  Lancaster  County,  have  to  inform 
you  that  there  is  200  of  the  Guns  finished,  300  Bayonet,  &  the  whole

done  in  a  short  time.  Some  of  the  Gunsmiths  having  made  a  con- 
siderable number  of  Musquets,  are  very  solicitous  for  their  Money, 
and  most  of  our  Sadlers  being  men  of  low  circumstances  occasions

March  19,  1776. 

GENTLEMEN  :  We  received  last  night  a  Letter  from  the  Com- 
mittee of  Safety  of  the  Province  of  Pennsylvania,  accompanied  with 
their  Resolutions  &  those  of  the  Congress  respecting  the  Officers 
who  are  Prisoners  here.  In  Consequence  of  the  Authority  delegated 
so  us,  to  make  the  best  arrangement  we  could,  as  to  this  Distribu- 
tion, we  beg  leave  to  mention  to  you  that  we  have  pitched  upon 
the  Town  of  York  for  the  Place  of  Residence  of  Captains  Strong  & 
Livingston— Lieutenants  Wittington,  Thompson  &  Thomas,  & 
Ensign  Gordon  of  the  26th  Regt. — of  Capt'n  Robertson  of  the 
Royal  Emigrants,  of  Capt'n  Chase  of  the  Navy.  Lieutenant  Mc- 
Donnel  of  the  26th  Regt.  is  absent  in  Philad'a  by  the  Permission 
of  the  Hon'ble  Congress.  Capt'n  Campbell  has  also  leave  to  go  to 
Philad'a  to  visit  Mrs.  Campbell  who  is  indisposed.  Should  they  re- 
turn Irere  they  will  also  be  fixed  amongst  you.  The  Officer's  Ser- 
vants accompany  them.  The  other  Officers  are  stationed  at  Car- 
lisle. All  the  Military  Gentlemen  start  from  this  Place  on  Friday 
next  under  the  escort  of  two  of  us. 

We  think  it  our  Duty  to  give  you  the  earliest  Inteligence  we 
possibly  can  of  this  measure,  that  you  may  take  the  proper  Steps 
with  Respect  to  their  Plans  of  Lodging,  &  such  necessary  precau- 
tions as  must  inevitably  result  from  our  Appointment.  Permit  us 
to  quote  a  Passage  from  the  Congress'  Letter  to  us.  "Upon  tne

whole  Gentlemen  you  have  judged  rightly  in  supposing  every  meas- 
ure you  have  taken  to  render  the  Situation  of  our  Prisoners  as  com- 
fortable as  possible,  would  be  agreeable  to  us.  As  men,  they  have 
a  right  to  all  the  Claims  of  Humanity,— As  Countrymen,  tho'  Ene- 
mies, they  claim  something  more.  You  have  Therefore  the  Thanks 
of  The  Congress."  Need  we  suggest  to  you,  Gentlemen,  that  your 
Interesting  yourselves  in  Behalf  of  those  Officers  who  are  to  reside 
amongst  you,  in  procuring  them  such  private  Lodging,  necessary 
accommodations  as  they  may  want,  will  particularly  oblige  those 
Gentlemen  &  this  Board  ?  Your  own  feelings,  we  are  persuaded, 
will  render  this  Intimation  perfectly  unnecessary. 

We  have  to  apologize  to  you  for  the  Liberty  we  have  taken  to 
open  your  Letter  from  the  Committee  of  Safety.  Some  Doubts 
arose  with  respect  to  our  Taking  of  the  Parole  of  the  Prisoners  be- 
fore they  left  this  Borough.  We  recurred  to  your  Letter  for  a  So- 
lution of  our  Difficulties.  The  common  cause  we  are  engaged  in 
must  serve  as  our  excuse. 

You  will  please  to  forward  the  Letter  herewith  sent  to  the  Com-

transmit  our  Letters  as  early  as  possible.

THE  LANCASTER  COMMITTEE   TO  THE  GENERAL 
COMMITTEE. 

IN  COMMITTEE  FOR  LANCASTER  COUNTY, 

LANCASTER,  March  29, 1776. 

GENTLEMEN  :  We  have  received  your  Letter  of  the  14th  Instant, 
accompanied  with  the  Resolves  of  Congress  of  the  26th  February, 
respecting  the  Distribution  of  the  Officers  late  Prisoners  in  this 
Borough.  In  Order  that  your  Resolution  might  be  immediately 
effected,  we  desired  the  attendance  of  those  Gentlemen,  on  your 
Letters  Coming  to  Hand.  After  some  Conference,  we  pitched  on 
the  Town  of  York  for  the  Residence  of  the  following  Officers,  viz' : 
Captain  John  Strong,  Capt.  John  Livingston,  Lieut.  D.  McDonnell, 
Lieut.  E.  P.  Willihgton,  Lieut.  Robert  Thomas,  Lieut.  Edward 
Thompson,  &  Ensign  James  Gordon,  all  of  the  26'"  Rege.  also  of

Lieut.  William  Carlyon  Hughes,  Lieut.  William  Duff,  Lieut.  John 
Andre,  Lieut.  Joseph  Campbell,  and  Lieut.  George  Peacocke.  We 
have  the  Pleasure  to  mention  to  your  Honourable  Board,  that 
whatever  Pain  a  Separation  from  their  Men  might  cause  to  the 
Military  Gentlemen,  they  acquiesced  with  our  Arrangement  with 
great  Politeness.  We  permitted  one  Servant  to  attend  each  Officer, 
and  engaged  at  the  Continental  Expense,  Teams  to  carry  their  Bag- 
gage, and  Stage  Waggons  to  transport  themselves,  to  their  respec- 
tive Places  of  Destination.  Two  of  our  Board  also  accompanied 
them  to  York  &  Carlisle.  The  Expenses  attending  this  Matter 
will  be  transmitted  to  you,  upon  our  being  furnished  with  the  sev- 
eral Amounts.  We  wrote  to  the  Committee  of  York  and  Carlisle 
agreeable  to  your  Desire,  previous  to  the  Officers  setting  out,  and 
sent  them  your  Letters.  Capt".  Campbell  afterwards  produced  a 
Letter  from  the  President  of  the  Congress,  permitting  him  to  go 
Philada.  so  that  his  llout  was  altered.  Capt".  Gordon  of  the  26th 
Reg1,  came  to  this  Town  since,  and  brought  with  him  an  Extract 
from  your  Minutes.  He  went  a  few  Days  ago  to  York.  Upon  the 
whole,  Gentlemen,  we  have  transacted  this  Business  according  to 
the  Best  Judgement  we  could  form,  from  our  Experience  of  the 
Conduct  of  the  Officers ;  and  we  natter  ourselves  our  Conduct  herein 
will  prove  satisfactory. 

Upon  the  Receipt  of  your  Letter  of  the  19th  Instant,  we  wrote  to 
the  several  Colonels  in  the  County,  inclosing  a  Copy  of  your  Letter 
and  requesting  a  Conference  with  them,  and  the  other  Field  Officers 
this  Day,  at  the  same  Time  desiring  them  to  inform  themselves 
previous  to  our  Meeting,  of  the  Number,  Kind,  State  and  Condi- 
tion of  the  Arms  in  their  respective  Battalions.  The  greater  Part 
of  those  Gentlemen  met  us  this  Day  in  Committee.  We  warmly 
recommended  to  them  to  use  their  utmost  Diligence  to  procure  the 
Articles  of  Association  to  be  more  generally  signed,  and  that  they 
would  pay  a  proper  Attention  to  the  Arms  &  Accoutrements  of  the 
Associators,  that  every  Man  might  be  prepared  &  in  Readiness  to 
march  at  an  Hour's  Warning.  We  are  filled  with  the  utmost  Con- 
cern, to  find,  that  there  is  so  small  a  Number  of  good  Arms  in  the 
Hands  of  the  Associators.  When  the  late  Resolve  of  Congress  con- 
cerning the  Disarming  of  Non-Associators  is  carried  into  Execu- 
tion by  the  Honourable  House  of  Assembly,  or  your  reputable 
Board,  we  doubt  not  but  our  spirited  Associators  will  receive  some 
supply  of  Fire- Arms.  The  fatal  Consequence  which  may  arise  from 
the  Want  of  arms  amongst  us  are  too  obvious  to  be  insisted  on,  par- 
ticularly in  this  Town,  where  we  have  about  four  hundred  Prisoners, 
and  most  of  them  of  active,  restless  and  uneasy  Spirits. 

We  have  ordered  250  Weight  of  Powder  immediately  to  be  made 
up  into  Cartridges  &  fitted  with  proper  Ball,  so  as  to  suit  the  sev- 
eral Bores  of  the  Muskets  and  Guns  amongst  us,  and  to  be  lodged 


AND  MILITIA  OF  THE  REVOLUTION.  515 

in  our  Magazine.  As  this  Powder  and  Lead  lias  been  laid  in 
altogether  at  the  Expense  of  the  County,  we  beg  Leave  to  suggest 
to  you  that  should  the  same  be  removed  from  here,  we  must  run  to 
you  for  a  fresh  Supply,  in  Order  to  render  the  Minds  of  the  Inhabi- 
tants easy. 

We  have  also,  Gentlemen,  to  answer  your  Letter  of  the  231  Inst. 
requiring  us  to  fill  up  a  Blank  left  for  the  Names  of  some  Persons 
appointed  to  purchase  of  all  such  who  do  not  associate  and  of  such 
Associators,  who  have  spare  Muskets,  as  many  good  Muskets  as 
they  can  procure  in  this  County.  We  have  taken  Pains  to  inform 
ourselves  on  this  Subject.  We  cannot  lind  that  there  any  Muskets 
in  the  Hands  of  Non-Associators,  and  but  too  few  amongst  those 
who  do  associate.  Very  small  indeed  is  the  Number  of  spare  arms 
amongst  the  Associators,  and  those  have  been  kindly  dealt  out  to 
other  Persons  in  the  different  Companies,  who  are  unable  to  supply 
themselves  with  any  Kind  of  Firelocks  to  learn  the  military  Ex- 
ercise. We  regret  exceedingly,  that  the  unfortunate  Want  of  proper 
arms  greatly  damps  the  Spirit  of  our  military  Associators. 

We  ardently  wish  &  pray  to  obviate  this  powerful  objection.  We 
are  confident,  it  is  not  the  Meaning  of  your  Board  to  encourage  the 
poor  and  needy  Associators  to  part  with  their  Arms,  and  thereby 
to  affect  and  sensibly  injure  the  military  Spirit  prevailing  amongst 
us :  Nor  do  we  apprehend  it  to  be  the  Intention  of  your  Letter, 
that  all  Kind  of  Guns  indiscriminately,  should  be  bought  up  of  the 
Non-Associators.  That  particular  Business,  we  conceive,  will  be 
carried  through  as  early  as  possible,  either  by  the  House  of  As- 
sembly or  your  Body,  under  the  late  Resolve  of  the  Honourable 
Congress,  in  such  Manner  as  will  appear  most  eligible  to  secure 
those  Arms,  and  at  the  same  Time  to  preserve  the  Common  Union 
and  public  Tranquility. 

We  are,  Gentlemen,  respectfully 

Your  very  Obedient  &  Humble  Servants,

GENTS:  The  Committee  are  desirous  of  Having  made  in  your 
County,  three  Hundred  Riffles,  but  do  not  think  proper  to  apply  to 
your  Gunsmiths,  least  they  should  Impede  the  makeing  of  the  Mus- 
ketts  ordered  by  the  Assembly,  having  been  informed  that  you  have

had  much  trouble  before  you  could  get  the  Gunsmiths  to  work. 
We  are  desirous  to  co-operate  with  you,  and  doubt  not  the  gun- 
smiths you  have  makeing  Musketts,  will  be  very  fond  to  make  the 
Rimes,  and  therefore  think  will  be  of  advantage  to  give  the  make- 
ing  of  the  Riffles,  among  the  smiths  in  proportion  to  the  Musketts 
they  make.  The  constant  attention  you  have  paid  to  the  publick 
service  has  been  an  inducement  to  us  to  give  you  this  additional 
Trouble,  which  we  doubt  not  you  will  excuse  &  shall  be  obliged  to 
you  to  undertake  to  applying  to  the  Gunsmiths  on  the  subject. 


TO  CONGRESS  FROM  THE  COMMITTEE  OF  LANCASTER 
COUNTY. 


IN  COMMITTEE,  LANCASTER,  April  lltk,  1776. 

GENTLEMEN  :  The  officers  of  the  7th  and  36th  regiments,  with 
those  of  the  Royal  Emigrants  and  Captain  Chase  of  the  Navy, 
having  been  lately  removed  from  hence  by  order  of  the  Committee 
of  Safety,  under  the  direction  of  the  Honorable  the  Congress,  to 
the  towns  of  York  and  Carlisle,  in  this  Province,  without  having 
it  in  their  power  (as  we  have  reason  to  believe  with  respect  to  some 
of  them)  to  discharge  the  moneys  due  at  their  lodgings  and  diet, 
at  the  houses  where  they  were  lodged  and  messed  in  this  town ;  and 
the  persons  who  have  demands  against  those  gentlemen  for  these 
articles,  having  laid  their  accounts  before  this  Committee,  and  re- 
quested the  assistance  of  the  Committee  in  procuring  them  their 
moneys,  we  are  obliged  to  trouble  the  Honorable  the  Congress  with 
a  state  of  the  demands  and  accounts  of  these  persons,  and  request 
their  direction  in  the  matter,  that  these  creditors  of  the  officers 
(some  of  whom,  especially  those  whose  claims  are  the  greatest,  are 
not  in  the  most  easy  circumstances)  may  have  their  demands  ad- 
justed and  paid. 

The  Committee,  gentlemen,  are  interested  in  this  matter.  The 
officers,  when  brought  to  this  town  by  Capt.  Mott,  were  placed  by 
him  in  the  houses  of  Messrs.  Mathias  Slough  and  Adam  Reigart, 
whose  accounts,  we  understand,  have  been  transmitted  to  Congress, 
and  are  therefore  not  taken  notice  of , here.  After  those  gentlemen 
had  entertained  and  provided  for  the  officers  a  considerable  time, 
they  found  it  very  inconvenient  and  requested  their  removal.  The 
officers  took  great  pains  to  provide  themselves  with  lodgings  and 
accommodations,  but  without  success.  The  gentlemen  with  whom 
they  were  first  placed,  at  length  refused  absolutely  to  provide  for 
them  any  longer,  and  applied  to  the  Committee  to  relieve  them. 
The  officers  in  this  situation  likewise  addressed  the  Committee,

representing  the  difficulties  they  were  subjected  to,  every  moment 
in  expectation  of  being  turned  out  of  doors  and  having  notice  that 
no  more  provisions  would  be  dressed  for  them.  To  gentlemen  in 
that  delicate  situation,  though  enemies,  we  could  not  avoid  render- 
ing every  service  in  our  power.  We  made  interest  with  some  of 
the  inhabitants  to  afford  them  private  lodging  with  fire  wood  and 
candles.  At  these  private  houses  they  lodged  and  breakfasted,  at- 
tended by  their  own  servants,  and  as  it  was  inconvenient  for  private 
families  to  dress  dinners  and  suppers  for  them,  we  prevailed  upon 
Mr.  John  Jordan,  whose  demand  is  the  most  considerable,  to  mess 
them  at  his  house.  And  though  we  did  not  absolutely  engage  for 
the  payment  of  their  demand,  yet  as  we  assured  them  of  our  influ- 
ence in  procuring  them  satisfaction  in  case  the  officers  should  be 
unable  to  pay  them,  we  have  the  greatest  reasons  to  believe  these 
assurances  from  us  were  their  principal  inducement  to  entertain 
these  gentlemen.  They  now  resort  to  us,  and  we  must  look  up  to 
the  Honorable  the  Congress.  We  must  do  that  j  ustice  to  the  officers 
of  the  7th  regiment  to  mention  that  none  of  these  demands  relate 
to  that  corps  except  the  trifling  sum  of  £6  10s  Od  due  to  Michael 
Bartges,  and  that  the  residue  is  entirely  for  the  lodging  and  ac. 
commodation  of  the  26th  regiment. 

The  Committee  have  been  highly  honored  and  very  happy  in  the 
testimony  they  have  received  of  the  approbation  of  Congress,  re- 
specting their  former  conduct  toward  the  officers  and  soldiers,  pris- 
oners here.  We  could  not  be  idle  spectators  of  the  distress  these 
gentlemen  were  reduced  to.  We  could  not,  as  a  Committee,  avoid 
taking  notice  of  their  application;  neither  could  we  place  them  in 
a  situation  which  would  have  been  less  expensive,  without  treating 
them  in  a  manner  different  from  that  recommened  to  us  by  the 
Honorable  the  Congress,  who,  we  hope  will  in  the  present  case, 
suffer  our  conduct  to  pass  without  censure,  and  order  in  what  man- 
ner these  people's  demands  are  to  be  satisfied. 

We  beg  leave  to  ask  if  the  former  resolve  of  Congress,  permitting 
the  officers  to  come  at  times  from  their  places  of  residence  to  Lan- 
caster, for  the  purpose  of  settling  with  and  paying  their  men.  and 
receiving  the  necessary  receipts  for  their  rations,  are  to  be  deemed 
still  in  force,  and  whether,  upon  application  of  the  soldiers  for  shoes 
or  any  necessary  clothing  (those  applications  now  becoming  fre- 
quent), this  Committee  shall  provide  them,  at  the  Continental  ex- 
pense ?  We  shall  steadily  persist  in  carrying  into  execution  every ' 
resolve  of  the  Honorable  the  Congress,  and  be  strictly  attentive  to 
their  directions  and  recommendations.

THE  LANCASTER  COMMITTEE  TO  THE  GENERAL 
COMMITTEE. 

IN  COMMITTEE  FOR  LANCASTER  COUNTY, 
LANCASTER,  April  11, 1776. 

GENTLEMEN  :  We  received  your  Letter  of  the  30th  March  a  few 
Days  ago,  but  as  the  Committee  of  the  whole  county  was  appointed 
to  meet  shortly  after,  the  consideration  of  the  same  was  postponed 
until  tins  Time. 

Your  Information  with  Respect  to  our  having  had  much  Trouble 
before  we  could  get  the  Gun-Smiths  to  Work,  was  well  grounded. 
We  for  our  own  Parts  think  our  Time  well  bestowed  in  forwarding 
a  Business  so  essentially  necessary  to  the  Well  Being  of  the  Com- 
munity. It  would  have  given  us  the  highest  Pleasure  to  have  found 
the  event  of  our  Labours  correspond  with  our  Inclinations. 

The  Gun-Smiths  residing  in  this  Borough  met  us  in  Committee 
this  afternoon.  Some  of  them  have  proposed  to  furnish  us  with 
thirty  Rifles,  in  six  Weeks,  others  with  the  same  quantity  in  two 
or  three  months,  and  a  few  who  are  not  so  strong-handed  with  a 
lesser  number  within  those  Terms.  They  ihsist  on  the  Price  of 
£4.10  per  Rifle  (to  be  made  with  wooden  Boxes)  and  say  they  can 
get  £5  from  the  neighboring  Governments  for  such  Work.  We  had 
received  no  Instructions  from  you  and  therefore  could  enter  into 
no  particular  Stipulations  with  them.  This  Board  have  had  no  op- 
portunity to  confer  with  the  Gun  Smiths  in  the  county  on  this  Sub- 
ject, but  will  attempt  it  as  soon  as  possible.  We  perceive  clearly 
that  your  Body  have  judged  with  the  greatest  Propriety,  in  fixing 
the  Number  of  Muskets  made  by  each  Workmen,  as  the  Proportion 
by  which  the  Rifles  are  to  be  furnished.  Your  Desire  of  Co-oper- 
ating with  us  &  not  immediately  applying  to  our  Smiths,  least  it 
should  impede  our  Musket  work,  demand  our  acknowledgments. 
We  cannot  think  that  our  Gun-Smiths,  even  while  they  are  making 
of  Rifles,  should  altogether  throw  aside  the  Musket  Business. 

We  conceive  it  our  Duty,  Gentlemen,  to  intimate  to  you,  that 
the  chief  obstacle  against  the  Finishing  of  the  Rifles  speedily,  con- 
sists in  the  Want  of  Locks.  There  is  Reason  to  believe  that  some 
of  our  Workmen  have  bought  up  a  Quantity  of  Locks,  which  they 
would  not  willingly  spare  to  their  Neighbours,  who  are  not  so  well 
provided.  A  Recommendation  from  your  Honourable  Board  to 
such  Persons  to  supply  others  with  those  articles,  at  a  generous, 
tho'  not  unreasonable  Price,  might  be  attended  with  good  effects. 
We  suggest  this  Matter  to  you  for  your  consideration. 

We  have  also  to  request  that  you  would  be  pleased  to.  furnish  our 
Commissioners  with  an  additional  Sum  of  Money,  in  order  to  dis- 
charge the  Ballances  due  to  the  different  Tradesmen  for  Muskets, 


AND  MILITIA  OF  THE  REVOLUTION.  519 

Cartridge-Boxes,  &c.  Their  Situations  in  Life  are  such  as  indis- 
pensibly  demand  their  Money  when  they  have  completed  their 
Work.  Our  Gun-Smiths  particularly,  feel  the  Want  of  Cash  as  we 
have  precluded  them  (or  attempted  it)  from  all  other  Work,  until 
the  public  Necessities  are  supplied. 

The  Field  Officers  of  this  County  have  required  of  us  some  more 
copies  of  the  Articles  of  Association,  and  the  Rules  and  Regula- 
tions for  the  better  Government  of  the  military  associators.  Those 
already  sent  up  to  us  by  you,  have  not  been  sufficient  to  answer  the 
Purpose  of  this  County.  We  therefore  request  you  will  transmit 
us  a  few  more  copies,  in  order  that  one  general  System  may  prevail 
amongst  us. 

Amid  your  more  important  Business,  we  beg  to  be  favoured  with 
an  answer  to  our  Letter  of  the  16th  March,  respecting  the  allowance 
to  be  made  for  the  Muskets,  and  also  to  this  Letter  as  soon  as  may 
be  consistant  with  your  Convenience.  We  shall  then  be  enabled 
finally  to  close  with  our  Gun-Smiths,  and  thereby  greatly  expedite 
this  necessary  Service. 

We  are,  Gentlemen, 

Your  very  Obed1.  &  Humble  Servt3.,

COL.  SLOUGH  TO  COL.  SAMUEL  MILES. 

LANCASTER,  April  16th,  1776. 

DEAR  SIR  :  I  arrived  at  home  on  Sunday  evening  and  yesterday 
morning  had  the  Comittee  Summoned  to  meet  &  when  met  I  Laid 
before  them  the  letter  Comitted  to  my  Charge  by  you,  from  the 
Comittee  of  Safety  requesting  the  arms  to  be  furnished  to  Cap.  De- 
huff  and  have  the  Pleasure  to  Tell  you  that  it  was  Itnediately  and 
unanimously  agreed  that -Such  arms  Should  be  furnished,  viz:  as 
many  as  Cap1.  Dehuff  should  want  to  arm  his  Company  and  no  more, 
tho'  I  pushed  hard  to  get  a  hundred.  I  then  urged  the  Necessity  there 
was  of  Procuring  Blankets  and  Tow  Linnin  upon  which  it  was  Ima- 
d  lately  agreed  that  letters  Should  be  wrote  to  the  Several  Township 
Comittees  and  request  their  assistance  which  is  Done,  and  I  have 
No  Doubt  but  in  a  very  Short  Time  we  Shall  Procure  as  many 
Blankets  and  as  much  Tow  Linnin  as  we  want.  I  at  the  Same  time 
urged  the  Necessity  there  was  of  Procuring  as  many  Rifled  Guns 
as  Possible  and  requested  leave  to  advertise  the  Same  which  is  not 
approved  of  because  it  Does  not  appear  from  any  resolve  of  as- 


520  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

sembly  or  Coinittee  of  Safety  that  I  am  ordered  to  Procure  them. 
Shall  therefore  be  obliged  to  you  to  procure  Such  a  resolve  and 
Send  to  me  as  soon  as  Possible.  Shall  in  the  Mean  time  Procure  as 
many  as  I  Can  ;  to-morrow  our  Taylers  go  to  Work  at  the  Hunting 
Shirts  for  which  use  I  have  a  very  Large  Quantity  of  Linnin  on 
hand  as  well  as  for  the  Purpose  of  making  other  Shirts,  and  hope 
soon  to  Procure  as  much  blue  Cloth  as  will  Furnish  the  Musketry. 
Agreeable  to  promise  I  have  Inquired  the  price  of  the  Kind  of  Caps 
you  want  for  the  Rifle  men  and  am  glad  to  find  that  the  Difference 
in  price  between  them  and  hatts  is  such  as  we  may  venture  at  it 
being  but  6s.  6d.  a  piece ;  have  however  not  ordered  any  Nor  Shall 
I,  until  I  have  the  pleasure  of  your  orders  on  the  Subject.  I  have 
Sent  you  by  the  bearer  my  son  a  Pattern  for  a  Coat  of  the  best 
Cloth  to  be  had  here,  which  hope  will  please  if  not  it  may  Perhaps 
Sute  some  other  of  the  officers ;  hope  to  hear  from  you  by  the  first 
opportunity ;  Meanwhile  you  may  Depend  on  my  greatest  Diligence 
and  am,  Dear  Sir,  your  Very  Humble  Servant, 

MATTHIAS  SLOUGH. 

If  you  cannot  Procure  facing,  pleas  let  me  know  and  I  will  send 
you  the  best  I  have.  M.  S.

GENT"  :  We  find  it  necessary  to  direct  that  the  Officers  Prisoners 
of  War  at  Reading  be  removed  from  that  place  to  your  Town,  arid 
request  you  would  take  the  Parole  necessary  for  them  to  sign,  a  Copy 
of  which  we  send  you.  We  also  enclose  a  Resolve  of  this  Board  for 
this  purpose,  and  several  Resolves  of  Congress  relative  to  Prisoners 
of  War,  by  which  you  will  be  guided.  Some  one  of  the  Officers  must 
be  permitted  once  in  three  or  four  weeks  to  go  to  Reading  to  muster 
the  Soldiers  Prisoners  there  and  pass  the  Commissaries'  Accounts.

THE  LANCASTER  COMMITTEE   TO  THE  GENERAL 
COMMITTEE. 

LANCASTER,  April  17th,  1776. 

GENTLEMEN  :  Lieut.  Dullhuntyof  the  26th  Regiment  has  appeared 
this  Evening  in  Committee.  Not  being  personally  acquainted  with 
any  Member  of  your  Board,  he  has  desired  us  to  make  his  applica- 
tion to  you  concerning  the  place  of  his  future  Residence. 

From  a  former  letter  of  ours  to  you,  you  will  perceive  that  the 
other  Officers  Prisoners  of  the  26th  Regiment  were  Stationed  by  this 
Committee  at  York  Town  in  pursuance  to  the  directions  which  you 
gave  us.  We  made  this  observation  to  Lieut  Dulllmnty  &  expressed 
our  Sentiments,  thus  his  Rout  seemed  to  be  fixed  thither.  To  this 
he  objected,  that  during  his  short  stay  in  Philad.  he  conceived  he 
had  it  in  his  Election  either  to  go  to  York  or  Reading.  And  that 
he  was  then  a  Stranger  to  a  fact  which  now  weighs  greatly  with 
him.  The  small  Pox  he  is  informed  rages  with  violence  in  the 
Town  of  York,  and  has  proved  Fatal  to  many  Persons  infected 
with  this  disease.  lie  has  two  young  children  with  him,  one  at  the 
Breast  of  Mrs.  Dullhunty  who  have  not  had  that  disorder.  The 
Parents'  feelings,  under  such  circumstances,  were  strong  Induce- 
ments to  us  to  trouble  you  with  his  application.  Should  it  be  thought 
improper  that  Lieut.  Dullhunty  should  continue  in  this  Town  where 
the  Privates  who  are  Prisoners  are  stationed,  he  requests  to  be  per- 
mitted to  go  over  to  Reading  with  his  Family.  We  have  indulged 
his  desire  to  remain  here  until  your  Sentiments  can  be  made  known 
to  us.  When  we  can  be  informed  of  your  Orders  we  shall  deem  it 
our  Duty  to  carry  the  same  into  immediate  Execution. 
We  are,  Gentlemen,

IN  COMMITTEE  AT  LEBANON,  May  11th,  1776. 
GENTLEMEN:  By  Virtue  of  your  Orders  of  the  17th  April  last, 
the  Gen1.  Officers,  Prisoners  of  Warr,  were  removed  from  Reading 
to  our  little  Village  called  Lebanon  Town.  We  are  Sarry  to  In- 
form you,  that  we  Cannot  procure  such  Houses  &  accomadations 
as  Men  of  their  Taste  do  require.  Could  it  poossable  be  done,  we 
would  gladly  shew  them  as  good  a  Countenance  as  the  present  Dis- 
pute will  admit  of,  But  there  are  few  good  Houses  in  the  place,  and 
such  as  are  belongs  to  Men  in  Trade  who  cannot,  nor  will  not,  rent 
them.  Such  Houses  as  we  are  able  to  procure  would  Satisfy  a  Poor 
Country-man  to  live  in,  but  do  not  Please  the  Prisoners  of  War, 
neither  do  we  look  upon  them  Sufficiant  to  Accommadate  Gentle- 
men. The  said  Officers  also  produced  a  letter  to  us,  from  Co1.  Mc- 
Kean,  one  of  the  Members  of  the  Honble.  the  Continantel  Congress, 
bearing  date  the  30th  April  last,  telling  them  they  might  rest  Satis- 
fied that  the  Order  of  removal  from  Reading  was  Groundless,  that 
they  might  remain  at  Reading  as  long  as  to  them  Conveniant,  &c!l. 
Therefore  we  know  not  whether  they  are  to  remain  at  Lebanon  for 
any  time  or  no.  If  Conveniant  we  would  be  glad  they  might  be 
removed  to  Some  other  place,  if  not,  the  Officers  will  be  obliged  to 
except  of  such  Houses  as  we  are  able  to  procure  for  them.  The 
further  Orders  from  your  respectable  Body  by  this  Express  would 
be  very  agreeable  to

GENT".  :  As  the  sole  Intention  of  removing  the  Officers,  Prisoners 
of  War,  from  Reading  to  your  Town  are  to  seperate  them  from  the 
Soldiers  who  are  Prisoners  there,  this  Committee  are  willing  to  in- 
dulge those  Gentn.  in  any  Station  that  will  be  most  convenient  and 
agreeable  to  them  so  as  to  answer  that  purpose.  We  therefore  re- 
quest you  would  make  known  to  those  Gent",  that  if  they  can  point 
out  any  other  place  where  they  can  be  better  accommd.  than  in  your 
Town,  this  Commee.  will  give  Order  for  their  removal  to  it,  if  it  can 
be  done  consistent  with  the  Rules  of  the  Congress.  Lieut.  Cup- 
paidge  having  applied  to  be  removed  to  York  Town  you  are  desired 
to  permit  him  so  to  do.  Inclosed  is  a  Resolve  of  this  Board  for 
that  purpose  which  Mr.  Cuppaidge  may  carry  with  him  to  York 
Town. 


THE  GENERAL  COMMITTEE  TO  THE  COMMITTEE  OF 
LANCASTER. 

PHILADELPHIA,  May  22nd ',  1776. 

To  the  Committee  of  Inspection  and  Observation  for  the  County  of 

Lancaster. 

We  are  under  frequent  Necessity  of  addressing  you  upon  Subjects 
of  publick  Concern,  of  which  the  present  is  not  the  most  unim- 
portant. It  is  upon  Occasion  of  the  Uneasiness  and  Dissatisfac- 
tion, that  we  are  told  have  prevailed  in  some  parts  of  the  County, 
on  account  of  the  high  Prices  to  which  many  of  the  imported  Arti- 
cles of  Merchandize,  and  some  Necessaries  of  Life  have  advanced. 
But  before  we  proceed  further,  it  is  proper  to  declare  our  Opinion 
that  the  Scarcity  productive  of  these  high  Prices,  is  not  an  artificial 
but  a  real  one,  proceeding  from  the  late  absolute  prohibitions  of 
one  important  Branch  of  our  Trade,  and  the  Risque  and  Danger 
which  have  attended  every  other. 

From  whatever  Source  a  general  Discontent  arises,  it  cannot  fail , 
in  this  critical  Season  of  our  Affairs,  to  have  the  worst  Consequences, 
but  in  our  Capacity  as  Guardians  in  some  Measure  of  the  publick 
Welfare,  it  would  give  us  infinite  Satisfaction  if  the  Evil  in  ques- 
tion, which  will  be  removed u/ith  better  Times,  could  be  referred  to 
its  true  Cause,  the  peculiar  Situation  m  which  the  Country  is 


524  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

placed,  rather  than  to  a  general  Inclination  in  individual  Trades, 
to  Rapaciousness  and  Extortion.  If  even  it  should  be  supposed 
that  Avarice  has  no  small  Share  in  producing  this  Complaint,  this, 
although  highly  blameable  should  be  patiently  submitted  to,  for  at 
what  Time,  or  in  what  Country,  has  there  not  been  some  sordid 
Minds  ready  to  prey  upon  the  publick  Necessities.  Such  Disposi- 
tion to  extortion  may  indeed  be  but  too  common,  we  find  it  prevail 
where  at  least  one  of  the  Motives  to  it  mentioned  above,  cannot  be 
pretended.  We  have  seen  one  of  the  Articles  of  our  own  produce, 
Flax,  lately  raised  in  price  to  twice  its  former  Value. 

We  know  not  where  a  Remedy  can  be  applied,  for  a  Knowledge 
of  human  nature  should  teach  us,  that  so  inordinate  and  crafty  a 
Vice  as  Avarice  has  Ways  to  elude  all  the  Force  and  Restraints  of 
Authority,  and  truly  in  such  Cases  the  Interposition  of  Power 
would  sometimes  produce  more  mischievous  Consequences  than  the 
Evil  it  affected  to  cure. 

We  lament  as  the  greatest  Misfortune  any  Cause  that  has  a  Ten- 
dency to  sow  Discord  among  us,  and  promote  Dissention,  at  a  Time 
when  nothing  short  of  the  closest  Union  can  save  us  from  Destruc- 
tion. We  lament  that  Clamours  should  be  excited  where  they  can- 
not but  be  unavailable ;  we  would  rather  our  Countrymen  should 
consider  whether  the  real,  although  temporary  Inconvenience,  they 
now  feel,  may  not  by  care  and  Industry  be  converted  into  as  real 
and  permanent  Benefits.  It  may,  if  rightly  improved,  teach  us  the 
Art  of  supplying  our  own  Wants  by  our  own  Hands.  Had  it  not 
been  for  the  excessive  Dearness  of  foreign  Linnen,  probably  we 
should  not  have  the  present  Prospect  of  relief  in  that  Article,  which 
the  abundant  Quantities  of  Flaxseed  lately  sown  affords  us.  Hap- 
pily there  are  few  Wants  which  this  Country  cannot  of  itself  sup- 
ply ;  if  we  look  about  us,  every  Farm  can  afford  some  Substitute 
for  almost  every  necessary  Article  that  is  now  imported ;  these  need 
not  be  pointed  out,  being  well  known. 

It  is  these  Sentiments  which  only  can  produce  a  chearful  Acquie- 
scence under  the  present  Circumstances  of  our  Affairs,  and  a  de- 
termined Spirit  of  Exertion  to  resist  the  Efforts  of  Tyranny ;  such 
Sentiments  we  expect  will  be  inculcated  by  all  Men  of  understand- 
ing and  Influence  in  their  respective  Neighbourhoods,  and  such 
we  make  no  doubt  from  a  Sense  of  your  publick  Duty,  as  well  as 
from  your  Patriotism,  and  well-known  Attachments  to  the  common 
Cause,  you  will  lose  no  Opportunity  whatever  to  excite.

the  Prisoners  who  are  brought  from  Reading  to  this  place,  I  trouble 
you  again  to  accquaint  you  that  there  are  not  proper  accommoda- 
tions for  them  here,  therefore  beg  you  will  order  them  to  some 
other  place  where  they  can  be  accommodated,  the  Gentlemen  also 
Desire  to  Know  to  whom  they  are  to  apply  for  the  two  Dollars  pr. 
week  allowed  to  prisoners  By  the  Congress.

GENTLEMEN:  We  have  received  the  amount  of  your  Order, 
dated  6tb  May,  1776,  which  would  not  near  answer  the  necessities 
of  the  Gunsmiths  &  Sadlers,  and  as  your  Letter  of  the  6lh  ultimo 
informed  us,  there  would  be  a  new  Emission  of  money,  hope  it 
would  be  convenient  to  remit  one  thousand  pounds  to  William 
Bawsman,  Esq.,  by  the  hands  of  Colonel  Slough.  'Twould  oblige 
us  extremely,  would  you  inform  us  how  much  the  Gunsmiths  are 
to  be  allow'd  pr.  Musquet,  &  what  the  Sadlers  is  to  have  for  Car- 
trige  Boxes,  Bcls,  &c.,  or  are  the  prices  to  be  left  to  our  Option  ?

COMMITTEE. 


LEBANON,  June  15, 1776. 

GENTLEMEN  :  Yesterday  morning  before  day  all  the  prisoners 
of  Warr  stationed  at  this  place  absconded  from  their  lodging  and 
also  their  waiting  men.  The  Night  before  they  made  Preparations 
to  go  a  Fishing,  as  they  sometimes  amused  themselves  that  Way, 
by  means  whereof  they  were  not  suspected  till  Yesterday  Evening. 
Harrington  went  off  Yesterday  about  Eight  O'Clock,  on  pretence 
to  be  one  of  the  Fishing  party,  and  went  by  the  way  of  Grubb's 
Forges.  Two  men  are  sent  after  him  and  hope  he  will  be  brought 
before  you,  before  this  Comes  to  hand.  This  morning  the  whole 
Family  with  whom  they  Lodged  were  Examined  on  Oath,  touch- 
ing the  matter,  but  no  Intention  of  their  Deserting  or  Obsconding, 
nor  which  way  they  toock  can  be  Discovered.  But  it  is  Generally 
thought  here,  that  they  have  made  towards  New  York  by  private 
Roads  over  the  mountains.  We  have  dispached  persons  to  Jones's, 
Stump's,  Rehrer's,  &  Emrick's,  on  the  mountain  side,  to  alarm  the 
Country ;  Therefore  thought  fit  to  acquaint  you  with  this  affair,  in 
order  to  receive  your  further  Instructions  how  to  proceed.

CAPT.  GRUBB'S  STATEMENT. 

I  do  Certify  that  I  saw  Major  Rogers  on  Tuesday  night,  between 
the  hours  of  9  &  10  o'clock.  &  that  Cap.  Murray  desired  him  to  re- 
pair to  his  Quarters  at  that  time  as  he  wanted  to  go  the  Rounds, 
&  after  that  he  was  playing  Billiards  with  Dr.  Allison,  and  before 
the  game  was  ended  he  went  down  stairs  &  in  a  few  minutes  after 
he  went  away  Cap.  Murray  came  in  the  Room  to  inquire  after  him. 
I  observed  that  Cap.  Murray  was  very  particular  with  him  &  would 
not  suffer  him  to  walk  unless  he  attended  him. 

Witness  my  hand  this  11th  day  of  July,  1776.

WILLIAM  ATLEE  TO  BENJAMIN  FRANKLIN. 


IN  COMMITTEE,  LANCASTER,  23d  July,  1776. 
SIR  :  Your  Express  arrived  here  last  Night  between  ten  &  eleven 
o'Clock,  with  the  Ordinance  of  Convention  for  disarming  the  Non- 
Associators,  and  the  Circular  Letters  to  the  Commanding  Officers 
of  the  Battalions  of  Associators  in  this  County,  and  this  Morning 
about  8  o'Clock  we  dispatched  three  Expresses  to  different  parts  of 
the  County,  with  a  circular  Letter  and  Ordinance  to  each  of  the 
commanding  officers  of  the  Battalions  agreeable  to  the  orders  of 
Convention,  so  that  by  twelve  or  one  o'Clock  to  Day  we  expect 
those  officers  will  be  possessed  of  them  &  have  no  doubt,  will  do 
every  thing  in  their  power  to  forward  the  march  of  the  militia. 
We  shall  with  great  cheerfulness  agreeable  to  the  commands  of  the 
Honourable  Convention  "aid  and  assist  them  as  far  as  in  our  power 
to  carry  the  Recommendation  of  Congress  into  the  most  immediate 
<fc  effectual  execution  by  providing  them  with  every  necessary  which 
we  possibly  can."  We  have  assisted  such  Companys  as  were  ready 
or  nearly  so,  with  Cash,  Camp  Kettles  &•  a  few  Muskets  and  Bay- 
onets, &  our  Gunsmiths  have  been  busy  for  a  few  Days  past  in  re- 
pairing their  arms,  but  we  think  it  our  Duty  to  mention  to  the  Con- 
vention that  our  Stores  are  nearly  exhausted.  We  have  distributed 
our  Muskets  &  Bayonets  so  that  we  have  hardly  sufficient  in  good 
order  to  relieve  (with  decency)  our  necessary  Guards.  Our  Tin- 
workers  are  out  of  Tin  so  that  no  more  Camp  Kettles  can  be  ex- 
pected from  them,  and  we  have  taken  up  the  chief  part  of  the  cash 
to  be  found  amongst  the  money 'd  Men,  which  we  have  distributed 
amongst  the  officers  to  enable  them  to  advance  something  to  such 
of  their  People  as  stood  in  need  of  it,  and  beg  lieve  to  submit  it  to 
the  Convention,  whether  Moneys  should  not  be  immediately  lodged 
here  in  proper  Hands,  to  be  paid  by  direction  of  the  Committee  to 
the  officers  who  march  with  the  Militia  for  the  use  of  their  Men, 
most  of  whom  require  some  little  necessarys  &  many  of  them  have 
Family's  with  whom  they  would  choose  to  leave  a  few  Shillings. 
We  should  be  happy  to  have  it  in  our  power  to  supply  these  or  any 
other  necessary's  to  our  Militia  as  they  march — their  applications 
are  to  us— they  expect  here  to  be  equip 'd  and  assisted,  and  it  gives 
us  pain  to  see  their  disappointment.  Our  Tin  workers  say  there  is 
no  Tin  to  be  had  in  Philadelphia ;  should  there  be  any  in  the  pub- 
lick  Magazines  to  spare,  we  could  keep  our  Tin  Men  employed  in 
making  Kettles  &  Cantins  for  the  Troops.  We  shall  use  our  best 
endeavors  to  keep  our  Gunsmiths  busy,  and  shall  do  everything  in

our  power  to  execute  the  orders  of  the  Convention  and  promote  the

COL.  JOHN  HUBLEY  TO  PRESIDENT  WHARTON. 


LANCASTER,  Octr.  28th,  1776. 

SIR  :  Inclosed  I  send  you  the  Depositions  of  Edward  Cowan  & 
Solomon  Marauchey  against  Peter  Grubb  with  Grubb's  Recogni- 
zance. The  behaviour  of  Grubb  in  putting  the  Continent  to  a 
great  expense  and  receiving  a  Month's  pay  for  his  Battalion  and 
afterwards  sending  his  Men  home  is  well  known  to  the  Council  and 
ought  not  to  be  overlooked,  and  he  ought  to  be  brought  to  an  Ac- 
count as  well  for  that,  as  to  what  the  within  Depositions  relate, 
speedily.  He  does  not  even  deny  his  Sentiments  and  declared  be- 
fore me  that  he  could  not  tell  whether  he  had  drank  Success  to  the 
King  or  his  Health,  but  one  or  the  other  he  did. 

I  am,  Sir,  Your  and  the  Council's  Humble  Servt, 

JOHN  HUBLEY. 

N.  B.  It  is  likewise  declared  by  Cowan  &  Marache  That  James 
Webb,  Jr.,  in  the  same  Company  drank  success  to  the  Tories ;  if  you 
think  proper  you  will  send  for  him,  as  no  Committee  now  exists 
here. 


Edward  Cowan  being  duly  Sworn,  deposed  arid  saith  That  being 
in  Company  with  Peter  Grubb,  Richard  Swanwick  and  others,  on 
the  Evening  of  the  27th  Instant,  That  the  said  Peter  Grubb,  did, 
then  take  a  Glass  of  Clarret  and  said  u  Success  to  King  George," 
which  the  said  Deponant  took  to  be  king  George  of  Great  Britain. 

Solomon  Marauchey,  being  likewise  duly  Sworn,  deposed  &  saith 
That  being  in  same  Company  above  mentioned  did  hear  &  see  the 
above  named  Peter  Grubb  take  a  glass  of  Clarret  and  drink  "  Suc- 
cess to  King  George,"  which  the  said  Depouant  understood  to  mean 
King  George  of  Great  Britain.

Sm:  I  was  on  the  14th  instant  about  i  past  10  o'clock  in  the 
Morning  honoured  with  your  Letter  of  the  12th  with  Letters  ad- 
dressed to  the  Colonels  or  Commanding  officers  of  the  eleven  Bat- 
talions of  Associators  in  this  County  (Michael  Boyer,  Express),  and 
the  same  Day  had  them  forwarded  as  directed  in  such  manner  that 
I  have  reason  to  believe  the  officers  had  them  on  the  15th  in  every 
part  of  the  County. 

And  this  Day,  Stroud  (your  other  Express)  delivered  me  your 
Letter  of  the  14th  instant,  with  Letters  addressed  as  above,  all  of 
which,  except  three  or  four,  are  I  imagine  by  this  time  with  the 
officers  &  the  remainder  will  I  hope  reach  them  to  morrow,  each  ac- 
companied with  an  address  to  the  Associators.  Stroud  arrived  here 
to  Day  at  i  past  12,  and  proceeded  after  a  short  rest  for  York,  &c. 
Colonel  Ross's  Battalion  meet  here  to  morrow  morninar,  &  the 
officers  have  hopes  that  by  Tuesday  morning  a  part  of  it  will  march 
for  Philadelphia.

SIR  :  The  request  of  the  Council  of  Safety  for  Waggons  to  assist 
the  Inhabitants  of  Philada.  in  removing  their  Women,  Children  & 
Effects  came  to  hand  yesterday  Evening.  The  Committee  here 
yesterday  had  Hand  Bills  Printed  &  they  will  this  day  be  dispersed 
thro'  the  County,  inviting  the  Farmers  to  send  down  their  Wag- 
gons immediately  to  assist  the  Philadelphians.  And  I  stop  the 
bearer  of  this  to  mention  to  you  that,  there  are  about  sixty  of  out- 
Waggons  on  the  Road  towards  the  Jerseys  with  the  Prisoners  from 
hence,  who  would  very  probably  strike  across  the  Country  to  the 
the  City,  after  delivering  their  Loads,  if  they  had  Notice  that  they 
were  wanted.

THE  LANCASTER  COMMITTEE  TO  THE  GENERAL 
COMMITTEE. 

LANCASTER,  the  13th  Decr.  1776. 

GENTLEMEN  :  The  inclosed  is  Copy  of  a  Letter  which  I  received 
last  Night  by  Express  from  Colonel  Burd.  And  as  the  Moneys  for- 
warded by  the  Council  of  Safety  to  me  to  advance  to  theCompanys 
who  should  march  from  the  respective  Battalions  in  this  County 
amounted  to  but  Six  Thousand  nine  Hundred  &  sixty-six  Dollars 
&  *d  of  a  Dollar,  that  is  696*  Dollars  for  each  Company  of  ten  Com- 
panys.  I  could  not  comply  with  the  request  of  Col°.  Burd,  however, 
as  he  mentioned  that  his  whole  Battalion  were  to  march  I  ventured 
to  send  him  One  Thousand  Dollars,  and  at  the  same  time  wrote  him 
that  I  should  send  an  Express  to  the  Council  of  Safety  &  perhaps 
would  have  it  in  my  Power  to  furnish  him  better  when  he  reached 
Lancaster. 

Colonel  Galbraith's  Battalion  we  are  told  will  move  on  Saturday 
next,  and  as  he  likewise  may  make  a  demand  exceeeding  his  pro- 
portion of  the  Moneys  forwarded  to  me  by  the  Council  of  Safety. 
I  am  requested  by  the  Committee,  to  ask  the  directions  of  the 
Council  of  Safety  in  these  and  similar  Cases  during  the  March  of 
Militia.  &  should  the  Council  think  proper  to  forward  a  further 


AND  MILITIA  OF  THE  HE  VOLUTION.  531 

Sum  for  the  Commanding  Otlicersof  the  Battalions,  to  request  that 
it  may  be  done  as  expeditiously  as  possible  that  the  Men  may  pro- 
vide themselves  with  necessarys.  The  Militia  of  Lancaster  seem 
rather  backward,  owing  principally  to  this,  that  many  of  our  spirited 
officers  and  young  Men  are  gone  as  Escorts  to  the  Prisoners  sent 
from  hence  &  upon  their  return  have  hopes  they  will  turn  out  to 
the  assistance  of  their  Brethren.  There  are  a  few  of  the  Militia 
from  Cumberland  County  arrived  here,  who  say  that  large  Num- 
bers are  on  their  way  down.  The  Battalion  from  Northumberland 
are  also  soon  expected.  Such  numbers  passing  thro  cannot  be  bil- 
leted on  the  Tavernkeepers,  and  as  our  Barracks  are  now  empty 
(except  a  few  sick  who  could  not  be  removed)  they  are  cleaning  out 
for  the  reception  of  the  Troops  as  they  pass.  Providing  for  them 
there  will  be  less  expensive  than  at  the  Taverns  on  Billet.  But  as 
to  this,  with  the  mode  of  providing  for  them,  the  quantity  of  pro- 
visions to  be  allowed,  the  appointment  of  a  Commissary  to  provide 
for  them,  the  Fund  and  mode  of  payment,  &c.,  the  Committee  beg 
the  directions  of  the  Council  of  Safety  by  the  return  of  this  Mes- 
senger. 

I  am  also  directed  to  mention  to  the  Council  that  we  shall  im- 
mediately require  a  large  Sum  to  pay  the  Expence  of  the  Escorts 
and  Waggons  sent  with  the  Prisoners ;  they  took  near  Sixty  Wag- 
gons. Under  30s.  a  day  we  could  not  get  a  waggon  to  go  at  this 
Season  of  the  Year,  &  even  at  that  rate  were  under  the  necessity 
of  sending  Parties  of  armed  Men,  into  different  Townships  to  press 
them  &  bring  them  in.  We  had  to  engage  that  they  should  be  paid 
here  &  hope  the  lion1'10  Council  will  enable  us  to  make  them  satis- 
faction on  their  return. 

We  have  frequently  requested  orders  respecting  the  Baggage  of 
the  officers  who  went  from  Lebanon,  &  should  be  glad  to  know  how 
we  are  to  dispose  of  it. 

We  are  also  considerably  in  Debt  to  the  Workmen  and  others  for 
the  Works  carried  on  by  the  orders  of  Congress  at  the  Barracks 
here.  Two  Companies  of  Guards  will  likewise  have  their  pay  due 
on  the  17th  instant  &  will  want  it  to  equip  them  for  their  march  to 
Philad11.  These  things  will  take  we  think  about  fifteen  Hundred 
Pounds,  which  we  hope  we  may  be  enabled  to  pay. 

The  Committee,  to  encourage  the  Farmers  to  turn  out  with  their 
Waggons  to  the  assistance  of  the  Inhabitants  of  Philada.  have 
made  a  kind  of  promise  that  every  Waggon  should  have  a  Bushel 
of  Salt  there  on  paying  the  price  fixed  by  the  Council  of  Safety,  & 
desire  me  to  mention  that  by  this  promise  many  have  engaged  to 
go,  &  hope  the  Council  will  please  to  let  them  have  some.

THE  LANCASTER  COMMITTEE  TO  PRESIDENT 
WHARTON. 

LANCASTER,  December  the  3tsl,  1776. 

SIR  :  Your  favour  of  the  15th  instant  by  George  Strahly  I  received 
with  fifteen  thousand  Dollars  for  the  purpose  of  advancing  the 
Militia  a  Month's  pay,  and  such  other  public  uses  as  the  Commit- 
tee of  Lancaster  may  find  necessary. 

The  Council  by  that  Letter  directed  the  Committee  to  appoint  a 
Commissary  to  supply  the  Militia,  who  on  their  way  through  Lan- 
caster might  be  lodged  in  our  Barracks  with  the  Rations  allowed 
by  Congress,  and  as  to  the  subsistance  of  the  Battalions  of  our 
County  on  their  march  to  join  General  Washington  let>,  it  to  the 
choice  of  the  officers  of  each  Battalion  to  receive  a  penny  pr.  Mile 
or  appoint  a  Commissary  to  supply  them  with  Rations. 

Agreeable  to  those  orders  the  Committee  appointed  Mr.  Christian 
Wirtz  Commissary,  and  finding  from  many  representations  that  it 
would  be  difficult  to  procure  provisions  for  the  Troops  on  the  Road, 
&  that  the  Tavernkeepers  exacted  an  extravagant  price  for  such  as 
they  did  furnish,  we  ventured  to  direct  Mr.  Wirtz  not  only  to  sup- 
ply all  the  Troops  who  should  pass  thro'  here  &  request  it,  with 
the  accustomed  Rations  while  here,  but  to  furnish  them  with  Ra- 
tions to  last  them  to  Philadelphia.  This  mode  of  f  urnishing  them 
appeared  to  the  Committee  the  most  certain  &  least  expensive,  & 


AXD  MILITIA  OF  THE  REVOLUTION.  533 

seemed  the  most  agreeable  to  many  of  the  officers  of  the  Parties  on. 
their  way,  as  they  had  their  Baggage  Waggons  with  them  &  at  this 
season  of  the  year  could  carry  Bread  &  Beef  for  three  or  four  Days. 
To  these  was  added  where  requested  some  Potatoes  or  Turnips  <te  a 
little  Salt,  so  that  at  their  Stages  they  ha.d  nothing  to  request  of 
the  Landlords  but  House  Room  &  the  use  of  Kettles  to  dress  their 
victuals,  and  some  dressed  it  before  they  left  this.  The  known 
scarcity  of  Provisions  on  the  Road  &  backwardness  of  the  publick 
Housekeepers  to  furnish  it,  induced  the  Committee  thus  far  to  ex- 
ceed the  orders  of  the  Council ;  they  however  hope  the  measure  will 
be  approved  of  by  the  Council  and  that  their  Commissary's  just  ac- 
counts will  be  allowed. 

On  the  231  of  this  month  the  Committee  were  honoured  with  the 
Council's  Letter  of  the  9th  instant,  mentioning  that  the  Council  had 
sent  a  quantity  of  Powder  to  our  care.  We  think  it  our  Duty  to 
mention  that  no  Powder  hath  come  to  our  charge.  A  quantity  of 
Powder  did  arrive  in  Town  a  few  Days  before  the  receipt  of  that 
Letter,  and  General  Mifflin  being  then  in  Town  with  Col.  Bird  from 
Reading  &  they  having  appointed  Mr.  George  Ross,  jtin.,  a  Deputy 
Quarter  Master  here,  that  Powder  was  by  the  General  ordered  into 
Mr.  Ross's  care,  &  is  very  probably  the  Powder  meant  by  the  Coun- 
cil. On  receipt  of  the  Letter  I  waited  on  the  General,  who  men- 
tioned that  Mr.  Ross  would  take  charge  of  those  things,  and  that 
he  &  Mr.  Bird  would  have  the  proper  Guard  appointed.  However 
no  Guard  is  as  yet  appointed,  &  the  Committee  cannot  look  on 
themselves  as  having  the  charge  of  those  things  without  further 
directions,  &  by  the  by,  if  the  Guard  is  to  be  selected  from  the  In- 
habitants of  Lancaster  or  places  adjacent,  the  committee  cant  help 
thinking  themselves  more  proper  Persons,  than  Strangers,  to  choose 
and  direct  it.  The  same  thing  has  happened  with  regard  to  the 
Beef,  &c.,  sent  up.  About  the  same  time  and  daily  since  Waggons 
have  arrived  with  those  articles.  They  were  ordered  by  the  General 
&  Mr.  Bird  into  the  care  of  Mr.  Ross  as  they  arrived.  After  a  few 
days  I  found  those  articles  by  Tickets  with  the  Waggoners  were 
directed  by  Mr.  Snowden,  assistant  Commissary,  to  my  charge,  *fe 
some  of  the  Waggoners  called  on  me  to  receive  their  Loads  &  pay 
their  Carriage,  but  as  Mr.  Ross  had  received  several  quantities  I 
directed  the  residue  to  him  &  continue  to  do  so,  to  prevent  confu- 
sion in  the  accounts,  and  left  Mr.  Ross  to  pay  the  Carriage,  as  it 
would  appear  absurd  in  me  to  bring  a  charge  for  Carriage  of  articles 
addressed  to  me,  when  I  could  render  no  account  of  them. 

I  am  directed  by  the  Committee  to  mention  that  one,  Mr.  Louis 
Lorbenier,  a  French  Priest,  who  by  a  Commission  from  Congress 
appears  to  be  a  Chaplain  in  the  Continental  Service  resides  here 
(having  left  Philadelphia  at  the  time  of  the  alarm).  He  has  a  Cer- 
tificate from  Mr.  J.  Gibsou  of  a  Month's  pay  &  bis  Rations  being 


534  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

due  to  him  early  in  this  Month  amounting  to  4H  dollars.  lie  seems 
to  be  out  of  Cash,  &  hath  applied  to  us  for  his  pay.  We  were  sen- 
sible  of  the  impropriety  of  our  paying  him,  but  at  his  earnest  en- 
treaty  trouble  the  Council  with  his  case  for  their  directions.  By 
his  own  account  he  seems  to  have  been  very  active  in  our  favour  in 
Canada  &  is  apprehensive  of  very  severe  treatment  should  he  fall 
into  the  Hands  of  the  Enemy. 

I  have  the  pleasure  to  mention  that  General  Mifflin's  presence 
has  roused  the  Militia  of  this  place  to  arms.  Some  Companies  of 
Colonel  Ross's  Battalion  marched  yesterday,  some  go  to  day,  & 
others  to  morrow,  &  they  will  be  followed  by  the  Town  Companys 
of  Colonel  Slough's  Battalion  the  next  day. 

The  Council  do  me  great  honour  by  their  approbation  of  my  con- 
duct expressed  in  your  Letter,  &  by  the  confidence  placed  in  me. 
I  think  I  shall  not  abuse  it,  &  arn  happy  when  I  have  it  in  my  power 
to  render  an  essential  service  to  my  injured  Country. 
I  have  the  honour  to  be,  Sir, 

Your  most  obedient  Serv1.,

GENTLEMEN  :  A  few  Days  ago  John  Hubley,  Esqr,,  Called  upon 
me  for  a  list  of  the  Clothing  I  had  on  hand  which  I  Procured  for 
the  Pennsylvania  Battalions,  with  which  I  furnished  him,  and  have 
now  the  Honour  of  Sending  you  the  Several  Finished  articles  there^ 
in  Contained  by  the  bearer,  John  Kipp,  as  pr.  list  inclosed,  and  have 
also  sent  in  the  Case  N°.  1  Thirty  Six  pair  of  buckskin  britches  be- 
longing to  Col.  Housaker,  which  I  beg  you  will  be  pleased  to  order

THE  COMMITTEE  TO  PRESIDENT  WHARTON. 


LANCASTER,  January  the  7th,  1777. 

SIR  :  Your  Letter  of  the  5th  instant  respecting  the  Plunder  in  the 
possession  of  the  Hessian  Prisoners  was  handed  to  me  this  afternoon 
by  Express.  I  have  not  yet  had  an  opportunity  of  communicating 
the  Contents  of  it  to  the  Gentlemen  appointed  with  rne  to  examine 
them,  but  shall  do  it  this  Evening  if  possible  &  endeavor  to  morrow 
to  do  as  requested  with  all  the  address  we  are  masters  of.  Your 
Express  also  handed  to  me  a  number  of  Addresses  tothepublickin 
English  &  German  which  the  Committee  will  have  distributed  as 
directed.  Also  the  Resolves  of  the  Honble  Congress  &  Council 
of  Safety  in  respect  to  the  Continental  Currency  a  copy  of  which  is 
now  in  the  Hands  of  the  Printer  to  translate,  with  directions  to 
print  1000  in  German  &  the  like  number  in  English  agreeable  to 
your  Orders,  which  when  done  will  be  circulated  thro'  the  Country 
&  we  hope  will  have  a  very  good  effect. 

I  had  the  honour  to-day  by  the  return  of  Cap4.  Murray,  of  men- 
tioning the  arrival  of  the  Hessian  Prisoners  here.  That  on  ac- 
count of  the  uneasiness  of  the  Inhabitants  we  had  hired  a  place 
out  of  Town  at  a  small  distance  from  the  Barracks  as  a  Magazine 
for  the  Powder  and  Stores  sent  up  here ;  &  that  we  had  agreed  to 
take  into  Continental  pay  a  Company  of  about  Sixty  of  the  Militia 
to  do  duty  as  Guard  to  the  Prisoners,  Stores,  &c.,  until  relieved  by 
others  who  the  Honble  Congress  or  Council  should  appoint  to  that 
duty.  With  some  other  Matters  as  to  which  we  beg  the  Sentiments 
of  the  Council, 

I  am,  Sir,  Your  most  obed'.  humble  Serv', 

WILL.  ATLEE. 
THOMAS  WHARTON,  JR.,  ESQUIRE, 

President  of  the  Honbte  Council  of  Safety. 


THE  COMMITTEE  TO  PRESIDENT  WHARTON. 

LANCASTER,  the  1S'U  January,  1777. 

SIR  :  In  obedience  to  the  Orders  of  the  Council  in  your  Letter  of 
the  5th  instant  to  Mess1*.  Lowman,  Hubley,  Bowsman  &  myself,  we 
have  had  the  Hessian  prisoners  paraded  &  their  Baggage  and  apart- 
ments searched,  and  I  am  directed  by  those  Gentlemen  to  mention 
to  the  Council  that  we  could  not  find  anything  which  had  the  ap- 
pearance of  plunder,  except  twabr  three  pieces  of  old  brass  Desk- 


536  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

mounting,  not  worth  taking  away.  In  the  Bundle  of  one  of  them 
was  a  Sheet  which  the  possessor  assured  us  he  bought  at  Princeton 
to  make  Shirts  of,  &  with  another  was  a  Silver  Spoon  which  he  as- 
serted lie  brought  from  Germany,  &  as  it  had  the  marks  of  age  & 
German  workmanship  we  left  it  with  him.  Nothing  else  of  value 
was  to  be  found  in  their  Baggage  or  apartments.  There  is  a  Silver 
Watch  with  one  of  the  officers  of  the  Militia  here,  which  was  handed 
to  him  by  one  of  the  Hessian  Serjeants  to  get  repaired.  In  the 
outer  Case  of  the  Watch  is  a  neat  advertisment  of  a  watch  Maker 
in  Baltimore  with  a  small  piece  of  paper  charging  one  Lieut.  Mause 
with  repairs  &  to  the  Chain  is  a  Seal  with  the  Letters  F.  W.  M., 
and  in  the  Hands  of  one  of  the  Inhabitants  here  is  a  Silver  Watch 
made  by  Johnston  of  Liverpool,  which  shews  the  Day  of  the  Month, 
&c.,  for  which  the  person  gave  a  Serjeant  of  the  Hessians  29  Dol- 
lars. These  Watches  we  have  ordered  those  Persons  to  keep  in 
their  Hands  &  not  part  with  them,  till  they  have  further  directions, 
both  the  Serjeants  asserting  they  are  their  own  property  fairly  pur- 
chased &  not  plundered. 

I  beg  leave  to  hand  the  Council  a  List  of  the  Tradesmen  among 
the  Hession  prisoners.  A  design  of  having  the  prisoners  paraded 
&  their  Names  called  over  once  or  twice  a  week  by  the  officer  of  the 
Guard  induced  me  to  order  the  Serjeants  of  the  Prisoners  a  Day  or 
two  after  their  arrival  to  furnish  Lists  of  their  Companys,  &  cu- 
riosity prompted  me  to  require  the  Trades  of  such  as  were  Trades- 
men to  be  marked  opposite  their  Names.  Upon  examining  the 
Lists  &  finding  so  great  a  number  of  Tradesmen  among  them,  I 
thought  it  a  duty  to  the  public  to  mention  it  to  the  Council,  &  hope 
it  will  please.  I  have  no  doubt  but  numbers  of  them  would  gladly 
be  employed,  &  should  it  be  thought  proper  to  suffer  it,  it  might 
not  be  amiss  to  fall  upon  some  method  of  preventing  the  Master 
Workmen  from  outbidding  one  another  for  their  Services.  This 
was  the  Case  with  the  other  prisoners  when  here.  They  would  gladly 
have  worked  for  small  wages  rather  than  be  confined  in  the  Bar- 
racks; hands  were  scarce,  the  Master  Workmen  kept  raising  their 
wages  from  time  to  time  to  keep  them  from  changing  places,  the 
Fellows  soon  knew  their  own  importance  &  made  their  own  Terms, 
&  the  advance  to  them  was  of  course  charged  by  the  Masters  to  the 
publick. 

Mr.  Christian  Wirtz  yesterday  presented  to  the  Committee  the 
Resolves  of  Council  appointing  him  Town  Major,  with  the  Resolves 
for  the  Committee  here  to  ''direct  a  sufficient  number  of  aged  or 
infirm  Persons  who  are  unfit  to  bear  the  fatigues  of  a  Campaign  to 
be  enrolled  under  the  Town  Major  for  the  purpose  of  guarding  the 
Prisoners  in  the  Barracks  and  the  ammunition  &  Stores  during  the 
absence  of  the  Militia,"  with  the  Resolve  respecting  the  march  of 
the  remaining  Town  Companys  of  Col.  Ross's  &  Col.  Slough's  Bat- 


AND  MILITIA  OF  THE  REVOLUTION.  537 

talions.  The  Committee  always  with  cheerfulness  endeavour  to 
carry  the  Resolves  of  Council  into  execution,  but  upon  considera- 
tion order  me  to  mention  that  they  think  it  impracticable  to  find 
such  a  Guard,  after  marching  the  Militia.  They  have  tried  several 
methods  to  get  one  or  two  of  these  Companys  to  march,  but  all  to 
no  purpose,  as  the  language  among  them  is  that  all  shall  go  or 
none  will  go.  We  had  therefore  some  thoughts  of  making  up  a 
Company  from  among  those  who  have  had  the  fatigue  of  the  flying 
Camp  &  are  lately  returned.  They  seem  entitled  to  a  share  of  the 
easy  military  duties  amongst  us.  Having  no  Families  or  occupa- 
tions in  the  Town  they  would  be  the  more  attentive  to  their  duty. 
A  couple  of  the  Block  Houses  at  the  Corners  of  the  Stockades  which 
command  a  view  of  the  Stockades  within  &  without  might  very 
easily  &  at  a  small  expense  be  fitted  up  for  their  reception  &  there 
they  might  constantly  &  very  comfortably  reside  and  draw  their 
Rations.  We  thing  such  a  Company  by  writing  to  the  several 
Colonels  who  have  had  Men  in  the  flying  Camp  would  be  imme- 
diately had,  &  the  Companys  here  being  then  upon  an  equal  foot- 
ing we  hope  would  march  without  further  objections.  We  are  sorry 
so  many  objections  have  appeared,  and  it  gives  us  pain  to  be  under 
the  necessity  of  troubling  the  Council  so  frequently  on  the  sub- 
ject. 

We  are  not  yet  favoured  with  the  directions  of  the  Council  re- 
specting the  allowance  to  be  made  to  the  Tavernkeepers  for  pro- 
viding victuals  for  1;he  Militia,  and  as  there  are  many  instances 
where  the  Men  have  their  own  Provisions  with  them  or  draw  it 
here  &  have  it  cooked  at  the  Taverns,  we  should  be  glad  to  know 
the  allowance  to  be  made  the  Tavernkeepers  in  those  Cases  for  their 
Fire,  Candle,  &c.,  &  trouble  with  them. 

Colonel  Mackay  writes  me  that  the  first  Division  of  his  Battalion 
left  Carlisle  on  the  11th  instant,  and  that  the  2rl  &  last  were  to  leave 
it  on  the  12th,  on  their  way  to  Philada.  by  way  of  Lancaster,  where 
he  hath  requested  Quarters  ready  for  620  Men,  of  which  I  have 
given  the  Quarter  Master  notice,  &  should  the  publick  Houses  be 
too  much  crowded  with  other  troops,  we  must  endeavour  to  pre- 
vail on  the  private  Houses  to  take  them  in. 
I  have  the  honour  to  be, 

Sir,  your  most  obed1.  humble  Serv'., 

WILL.  ATLEE. 

An  officer  from  Col.  McKay  is  just  arrived  to  provide  Quarters 
for  part  of  the  Battalion,  &  desires  me  to  mention  that  the  Bat- 
talion is  very  badly  off.  for  want  of  shoes  &  stockings,  &  would  be 
glad  two  or  three  hundred  pair  of  each  could  be  forwarded  so  as  to 
meet  them  on  the  road.  He  says  they  purpose  waiting  here  three 
or  four  days  to  rest  the  Men.

SIR  :  The  bearer  hereof  Mathew  McHugh  hath  been  confined  in 
the  Goal  hereseveral  weeks  on  a  Mittimus  of  John  Thome,  Esquire, 
of  Lebanon,  a  Copy  of  which  is  here  inclosed.  He  hath  frequently 
applied  to  the  Committee  here  that  he  might  have  a  hearing  before 
them.  But  as  they  did  not  think  they  could  properly  determine  in 
the  matter  after  a  Commitment  by  a  Justice  of  the  State  they  de- 
clined it.  They  have  however  ordered  to  me  to  take  his  Recogni- 
zance with  three  sufficient  sureties  (which  I  have  done)  for  his  ap- 
pearance before  the  Council  of  Safety,  &  obedience  to  sucli  orders 
as  they  shall  make  in  the  premisses  and  is  delivered  to  one  of  his 
Sureties  (William  Bell)  who  with  the  others  is  bound  to  conduct 
him  to  Philad".  &  return  him  to  Lancaster  Goal  or  otherwise  dis- 
pose of  him  as  the  Council  shall  please  to  order. 

I  take  this  opportunity  to  mention  that  the  Waldeckers  &  Hes- 
sian prisoners  under  the  Escort  of  Lieutenants  Jordan  &  Miller  ar- 
rived here  this  Morning  &  are  at  the  Barracks.  I  shall  present  the 
Council's  Letter  which  came  by  those  officers  to  the  Committee  this 
afternoon  &  have  no  doubt  every  Member  of  the  Committee  will 
exert  themselves  to  carry  the  orders  of  Council  in  respect  to  the

GENTLEMEN  :  At  the  time  the  British  prisoners  were  removed 
from  hence,  a  few  who  were  then  unwell  continued  at  the  Barracks 
here.  They  are  now  so  far  recovered  as  to  be  able  to  travel,  and 
Colonel  McCoy  mentioning  that  the  rear  Guard  of  his  Battalion 
shall  take  them  in  charge,  the  Committee  have  thought  best  to  send 
them  from  hence  to  be  disposed  of  as  the  Council  of  Safety  shall 
think  best,  as  they  belong  to  the  7th  &  26th  Regiments  &  are  part  of 
those  taken  prisoners  at  St.  John's  and  Chamblee.  A  List  of  their 
Names  are  inclosed.  They  occupied  two  of  the  Rooms  in  our  Bar- 
racks. Those  Rooms  are  now  wanted  for  the  Hessians  &  Wai- 
deckers.  It  seemed  improper  to  have  these  persons  so  near  to  & 
mixed  with  the  others,  &  as  they  were  for  exchange,  sending  them 
in  tins  manner  seemed  to  the  Committee  moi'e  elligible  than  em-

THE  COMMITTEE  TO  PRESIDENT  WHARTON. 


IN  COMMITTEE,  LANCASTER,  ye  6tn  January,  1777. 

SIR  :  On  the  5th  instant,  Cap'.  Murray  and  his  Guard  arrived  here 
with  the  Hessian  Prisoners,  (I  think  about  Eight  Hundred  & 
thirty)  who  are  placed  in  our  Barracks.  They  are  rather  crowded 
at  present,  being  seventeen  in  a  room,  but  in  the  course  of  a  week 
we  shall  be  able  to  give  them  more  room,  as  the  carpenters  are  now 
busy  in  laying  in  Floors  in  the  additional  Buildings,  and  when  that 
is  done  we  can  stow  away  a  few  more.  They  have  not  received  the 
least  insult  since  they  came  here,  &  agreeable  to  the  request  of  the 
Council  of  Safety,  the  Inhabitants  seem  disposed  to  treat  them  with 
civility.  They  are  kept  from  having  intercourse  with  any  but  such 
persons  as  the  Committee  permits  to  see  them,  &  the  Revd.  Mr. 
Helmutt  of  the  Lutheran  Congregation,  the  Revd.  Mr.  Helfenstein 
of  the  Calvinist  Congregation  &  Mr.  Heyney  of  the  Moravians  with 
the  Members  of  Committee  are  appointed  their  Visitors;  &  the 
two  former  propose  sometimes  giving  them  a  Sermon  in  German. 

As  a  Guard  to  them  &  the  Stores  placed  here  the  Commitee  find 
themselves  under  the  necessity  of  taking  into  Continental  pay  about 
Sixty  or  Seventy  of  the  Militia  of  the  Town,  to  do  duty  until  others 
may  be  ordered  to  relieve  them.  In  the  Guard  none  will  be  ad- 
mitted who  have  shown  a  backwardness  when  called  upon  to  march 
with  the  Militia,  &  in  a  conference  with  Colonels  Ross  &  Slough 
we  have  agreed  to  fix  them  in  the  following  manner :  there  is  one 
Comp'y  of  Col.  Ross's  remaining  here  &  two  of  Col.  Slough's ;  one 
of  Colonel  Slough's  is  immediately  to  march ;  from  the  other  & 
Cap1.  Musser's  (of  Ross's)  are  to  be  taken  the  Men  who  turned  out 
to  join  the  Camp.  These  together  will  we  think  amount  to  about 
sixty  or  seventy,  &  are  to  do  duty  as  one  Company  under  one  set  of 
officers,  who  are  to  be  taken  as  equally  as  may  be  from  the  two 
Cornpanys  &  be  charged  monthly,  &  as  to  those  who  have  skulked 
we  are  determined  to  be  active  in  securing  them  &  forwarding  them 
after  their  Company s. 

The  Inhabitants  being  uneasy  at  the  Powder  &  some  other  Stores 
being  placed  in  our  Court  House  &  new  Goal,  we  have  taken  the 
House  at  Mr.  Fortinee's  out-Lot  (a  place  known  to  the  Members 
from  hence)  for  its  reception.  It  seems  the  most  proper  place  about 
the  Town  for  a  Magazine,  &  Mr.  G.  Ross,-jun.,  or  some  Person  un- 
der his  direction  will  we  believe  begin  this  day  to  lemove  the  Pow- 
der, &c.,  there.  It  is  within  view  of  the  Guard  House  at  the  Bar- 
racks &  proper  Centries  will  be  placed  to  secure  it.  We  are  obliged 
to  promise  Mr.  Fortinee  that  the  publick  will  make  good  to  him  any 
damages  which  his  Building  may  sustain  by  the  Powder  &  Stores 
being  placed  there. 


AND  MILITIA  OF  THE  REVOLUTION.  541 

As  our  Barracks  are  now  taken  up  with  the  Prisoners,  we  are 
again  obliged  to  place  the  Militia  &  Troops  passing  thro'  here 
among  the  Taverns.  They  are  much  averse  to  it,  &  many  of  them 
took  down  their  signs  upon  the  occasion.  However  a  deputation 
from  the  Committee  went  round  amongst  them,  &  promised  to  use 
our  influence  with  the  Council  to  have  their  allowance  increased  to 
12d  or  15d  pr.  Meal,  upon  which  the  Qr.  Master  was  desired  to  pro- 
ceed in  placing  the  Troops  with  the  Tavernkeepers  &  they  have, 
tho'  much  against  the  Grain,  accepted  them.  We  beg  the  Council's 
sentiments  on  this  matter.  The  prices  of  every  kind  of  provisions 
amongst  us  are  greatly  raised,  &  it  is  really  difficult  to  get  the  nec- 
essary supplys  for  the  Town  from  the  Farmers  as  heretofore,  an 
evil  which  if  not  soon  remidied  may  be  productive  of  bad  conse- 
quences. 

By  order  of  the  Committee, 

I  have  the  honor  to  be, 

Sir,  your  most  obed'.  Serv1.,

LANCASTER,  January  20th,  1778. 
To  the  Supreme  Executive  Council  for  the  State  of  Pennsylvania: 

The  Representation  and  Petition  of  Michael  Hubley,  Barrack 
Master  in  &  for  the  County  of  Lancaster,  in  the  State  of  Penn- 
sylvania, 

Sheweth:  That  your  Petitioner  was  Appointed  to  the  Office  of  Bar- 
rack Master  aforesaid  by  your  Honours,  on  December  the  18th  last 
was  a  Year,  with  the  Rank  &  Pay  of  Captain.  That  since  his  first 
Appointment  the  Business  of  the  said  Office  has  Vastly  increased, 
especially  since  the  Loss  of  the  City  of  Philadelphia.  That  your 
Petitioner  is  Obliged  to  keep  and  use  a  Horse  continually,  having 
never  been  able  as  yet  to  procure  any  Forrage  from  the  Quarter 
Master,  without  which  it  would  be  Impossible  to  perform  the  busi- 
ness required  to  procure  Wood,  &c.,  for  the  Barracks  &  different 
other  Places  where  Soldiers  are  quartered.  That,  that  expence 
alone  is  very  little  inferior  to  his  pay  which  he  now  receives.  That 
he  is  sorry  to  say  that  the  Barrack  Master  General  by  no  means 
gives  him  that  Assistance,  which  at  this  Time  is  so  especially  nec- 
essary or  does  he  allow  him  such  proper  deputies,  as  the  Nature  of 
his  Office  requires. 


64L>  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

Your  Petitioner  therefore  prays  that  your  Honours  will  please  to 
take  the  Premises  into  your  Consideration,  And  make  such  Order 
therein  by  Augmentation  of  his  Pay,  and  Power  to  procure  such 
Assistance  by  Deputies  or  otherwise  as  the  Public  Service  especially 
at  this  Time  absolutely  requires,  or  as  to  your  Honours  shall  seem 

Meet. 

And  your  Petitioner  will  allways  pray,

SIR:  The  collecting  of  Substitution  money  &  fines  and  delin- 
quenths  under  the  militia  Law  in  the  County  of  Lancaster  being 
an  arduous  task,  &  I  am  desirous  that  such  delinquenths  might  be 
treated  in  the  most  milde  terms  possible  by  calling  on  them  for  such 
their  deficiencies  in  an  amicable  manner,  before  officers  under  the 
Law  are  sent  to  their  Doars  to  destrain  their  property  on  Ace',  of 
the  Debts  affors'1.  These  are  therefore  to  authorize  &  require  you 
to  call  upon  all  such  delinquenths  within  the  Bounds  of  your  Coni- 
panie,  demand  the  Respective  Sums  by  them  so  due,  Including  a 
retain  of  5  per  cent.  Such  who  pay  you  their  monies  you'l  return 
to  me  as  soon  as  convenient  &  such  who  deny  Payment  return  their 
names  to  me  that  the  Law  may  be  put  into  its  fullest  extent  against 
them.  For  your  trouble  you  shall  receive  20  /  per  Day  for  each  Day 
you  are  employed  in  that  Service.

DJSAR  BROTHER:  When  I  left  Philada.,  the  Council  had  under 
consideration  my  allowance  as  Dy.  Corny.  Gen1,  of  Musters  for 
Lancr.  County,  &  Mr.  Bryan  told  me  their  order  would  be  forwarded 
to  me  to  Chester.  It  is  riot  yet  come  to  hand,  &  as  I  purpose  leav- 
ing this  to  morrow  Morning  for  Wilmington,,  where  I  have  a  little 
business  to  transact,  I  shall  take  it  as  a  favour  if  you  will  speak  to

WILLIAM  ATLEE  TO  PRESIDENT  REED. 


LANCASTER,  December  if  29th,  1779. 

DEAU  Sin  :  I  have  the  honour  of  your  Letter  of  the  22'1  instant, 
repeating  the  Lands  called  the  Indian  Town,  in  or  near  Connestogoe 
Manner,  said  to  be  purchased  lately  by  Mr.  John  Musser  from  John 
Penn,  Esquire  ;  and  had  hopes  that  among  my  old  Papers  I  should 
have  found  some  Memorandums,  which  would  have  afforded  me 
the  pleasure  of  giving  Council,  with  exactness,  the  contents  of  the 
agreement  between  William  Penn  &  the  Indians  as  to  those  Lands. 
As  upon  the  Indians  being  killed  at  the  Town,  the  (then)  Sheriff, 
John  Hay,  Esquire,  secured  their  Papers  and  I  took  a  particular 
account  of  them,  (with  the  Indian  and  Country  Names  of  the  In- 
dians belonging  to  the  Town  &  the  Tribes  they  were  of),  &  imagined 
I  still  have  it,  tho'  after  two  Days  search  among  old  dusty  Papers 
I  can't  yet  lay  my  Hands  upon  it. 

I  have  found  the  List  which  I  then  took  of  the  Indians  who  were 
killed  at  the  Town  &  in  the  Work  House  in  Lancaster,  and  the 
rough  Draught  of  a  Letter  which  I  penned  from  the  Sheriff  to  the 
then  Governor,  to  whom  the  Deeds  and  Papers  were  (I  think)  sent. 
In  this  Draught  is  a  short  account  of  the  Papers ;  but  not  so  par- 
ticularly set  forth  as  in  the  List  or  Memorandum  I  took  for  myself. 
However  here  follows  extracts  from  it  relating  to  them  : 

"A  writing  on  Parchment  purporting  an  article  of  peace  &  amity 
concluded  on  between  the  Governor  of  Maryland  &  Cap1.  Civility, 
Chief  of  the  Connestogoe  Indians ;  Massawanoe.  Chief  of  the  Cha- 
wanas;  Wewinjock,  Chief  of  the  Connoyes,  and  Owakelo,  Chief  of 
the  Delaware  Indians  in  behalf  of  themselves  <fe  the  Indians  under 
their  Government.'1 

"A  Letter  (which  seems  to  be  under  the  lesser  Seal  of  the  Pro- 
vince) signed  WT.  Keith,  dated  Philadelphia,  May  26th,  1719,  directed 
to  Civility  &  the  rest  of  the  Indian  Chiefs  at  Connestogoe." 

"A  writing  purporting  a  Letter  (which  seems  to  be  under  the 
lesser  Seal  of  the  Province)  signed  W.  Keith,  dated  at  Philad",  ofh 
May,  1710,  directed  to  Civility  or  Tagotelessa  and  the  Indian  Chiefs 
•at  and  near  Connestogoe." 


544  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

"A  writing  purporting  a  Letter  signed  James  Logan,  dated  the 
23d  4  mo.,  1717,  directed  to  Civility  &  the  other  Indian  Chiefs  at  Con- 
nestogoe." 

"A  paper  (which  seems  to  be  under  the  lesser  Seal  of  the  Province) 
signed  James  Logan,  Secr'y,  &  purporting  an  order  of  Council  held 
at  Philad1,  Sept.  ye  28Ih,  1708,  or  request  to  the  Indians  to  appre- 
hend Nicole  Godin  on  suspicion  of  several  treasonable  practices 
against  the  Government,  &c." 

'•An  article  of  agreement  of  the  three  &  twentieth  Day  of  the 
second  month,  culled  April,  in  the  year  one  thousand  seven  Hun- 
dred &  one,  Between  William  Penn,  Proprietary,  &c.,  on  the  one 
part,  and  Connooday toll,  King  of  the  Indians  inhabiting  in  or  about 
the  River  Susquahannah,  and  Widaggh,  Roqueeash  ;  and  Andaggy- 
junkquagh,  Chief  of  the  said  Nations  of  Indians ;  Wopatblha,  King, 
and  Lemoytungth  and  Pemoyajooagh,  Chiefs  of  the  Nation  of  the 
Shawonnah  Indians;  and  Abookaffoough,  Brother  to  the  Emperor 
for  and  in  behalf  of  the  Emperor  (and  Wecwhinjough,  Cheequit- 
tagh,  Tekyewsan  &  Woapatkoa  Chiefs)  of  the  Nations  of  the  In- 
dians inhabiting  in  and  about  the  northern  part  of  the  River  Poto- 
mack  in  the  said  Province,  for  and  in  behalf  of  themselves  and  suc- 
cessors &  their  several  Nations  and  people  on  the  other  part." 

This  last,  I  think,  is  the  article  which  relates  to  those  Lands,  & 
as  near  as  I  can  recollect  they  were  to  remain  for  the  use  of  a 
Family  of  the  Mingo  Tribe,  of  which  Shehaes  or  Jo.  Hays,  an  old 
Indian  man  who  was  killed  at  the  Town,  was  then  the  head,  and 
their  or  his  Descendants,  &  upon  that  Family's  extinction,  to  re- 
main to  the  Proprietors ;  but  as  my  memory  may  not  serve  me,  so 
as  to  give  a  true  state  of  the  affair,  at  this  distance  of  time,  I  shall 
as  you  request,  endeavour  to  get  some  information  from  Mrs.  Su- 
sanna Wright,  &  shall  in  the  meantime  have  a  further  search  for 
my  memorandum  respecting  it. 

Mr.  Musser  was  at  my  House  the  day  after  I  received  your  Let- 
ter, &  I  then  learning  from  him  that  he  had  not  yet  received  a  Deed 
for  the  Lands  nor  paid  the  whole  purchase  money,  I  noticed  him 
against  proceeding  further  in  the  affair,  &  advised  him  to  wait  on 
the  Council  respecting  it ;  which  he  assured  me  he  would  do  in  the 
course  of  a  few  Days.  lie  has  since  left  Lancaster  for  Philadelphia. 

Mr.  Barton  hopes  he  will  be  allowed  to  take  the  Crop  in  the 
Ground  for  the  benefit  of  himself  &  the  young  Family  his  Father 
has  left  behind,  as  it  was  put  in  before  they  had  any  notice 
of  the  sale  by  Mr.  Penn,  or  the  claim  of  the  State,  and  Mr.  Hall 
the  agent  will,  in  the  Course  of  a  Day  or  two,  go  and  take  posses- 
sion of  the  place  for  the  State. 

I  shall  not  fail  to  deliver  your  Message  to  my  Brother  as  soon  as 
I  see  him,  which  I  hourly  expect.  I  find  there  are  some  Persons 
amongst  us  who  purpose  pushing  him  for  Councellor  in  case  of  the 


AND  MILITIA  OF  THE  REVOLUTION.  545 

resignation  of  Col.  Smith.    "What  his  own  sentiments  are  on  this 
subject  I  don't  yet  know,  but  I  think  I  shall  advise  him  against  it. 
Mrs.  Atlee  joins  me  in  the  Compliments  of  the  season  to  your 
Fireside,  &  I  am,  with  the  most  sincere  esteem, 

Dear  Sir,  your  most  obedient  &  very  humble  Servant, 

WILL.  ATLEE. 
31st  Dec'.,  A.  M. 

I  have  this  moment  seen  Mr.  Wm.  Hay,  the  son  of  Sheriff  Hay, 
who  says  he  has  among  his  Father's  Papers  a  receipt  for  the  Papers 
which  belonged  to  the  Indians,  and  as  soon  as  he  returns  home  will 
search  for  it  and  forward  it  to  me.  If  he  does  I  shall  do  myself  the 
Honour  to  give  it  a  speedy  conveyance  to  you. 

1st  Jan'y,  1780. 

I  have  just  received  the  inclosed  from  Mr.  Hay.  I  had  desired 
him  to  give  me  his  sentiments  of  the  agreement  between  Mr.  Fenu 
&  the  Indians,  without  mentioning  mine  to  him,  &  as  he  sends  them 
to  me  I  forward  them. 


WILLIAM  HAY  TO  WILLIAM  ATLEE. 

January  1st,  1780. 
To  the  Honorable  William  Atlee,  Esq1'.: 

SIR  ;  The  Indian  llights  for  the  land  in  the  Canastoga  meniior 
were  lodged  in  my  hands  and  lay  with  me  for  some  considerable 
time.  Upon  an  order  (from  whom  I  can't  at  present  recollect)  I 
delivered  the  writing  to  Cap1".  Thomas  McKee  and  took  his  Receipt 
,for  the  delivery  of  the  same,  to  the  person  who  sent  the  order.  The 
,  Grant  of  the  land  to  the  Indians  gave  them  a  Right  to  the  land  no 
longer  than  they  pleased  to  live  on  the  same.  They  had  no  Right 
.to  sell  if  they  left  it.  This  I  think  was  the  Tenner  of  their  Right, 
I  will  look  for  the  Receipt  when  I  go  home  and  send  it  to  you. 
I  am,  sir,  your  Honor's  most  Humble  Servant, 

Wm.  HAY.

Dr.  Sr. :  We  beg  leave  to  acquaint  you  of  the  great  difficulties  we

persons  inhabiting  in  one  Cap*,  John  Moor's  Company  of  our  Bat-

546  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

talion,  who  utter  every  unbecoming  riotous  expressions,  oppossing 
and  resisting  the  Laws  of  this  State,  speaking  contemptously  against 
them,  defaming,  slandering,  and  scofing  Congress  and  General 
Washington  in  a  mean  manner,  to  the  greatest  Astonishment  and 
vexation  of  the  spirited  and  well  Affected  people  and  bad  example 
of  others,  Absolutely  refusing  either  to  Attend  on  any  of  the  ex- 
ercising days  and  paying  their  Fines  for  non-attendance,  as  also  the 
Assessment  for  hiring  the  Volunteers,  and  we  have  given  them  all 
the  indulgence  and  patience  we  Lawfully  could  to  avoid  the  dis- 
agreeable steps  which  we  are  now  compelled  to  take,  having  put  up 
Advertisements  in  their  district  wherein  we  appointed  a  day  re- 
quired them  to  meet  and  pay  their  Fines  and  Volunteer  Assess- 
ments. Offered  to  take  the  same  without  any  further  Charge  or 
cost,  but  contrary  and  against  all  the  good  intents  and  meaning 
they  refused  to  make  payment  thereof  and  continued  in  their  old 
absurd  way ;  menaced  and  abused  the  Collecter  in  a  rough  man- 
ner, expressed  sundrey  menacing  words  against  him,  that  he  should 
be  a  dead  man  if  he  Attempted  to  demand  the  Fines  or  any  part 
thereof.  In  consequence  of  which  he  demanded  Assistance  and  we 
Furnished  him  with  seven  men,  with  whom  he  proceded  against 
them  and  made  sundrey  distresses,  but  soon  the  disaffected  Assem- 
bled about  Forty  in  Number,  all  provided  with  Clubs,  and  resisted 
the  Collecter  in  performing  his  duty.  He  then  retired  from  that 
place  and  demanded  a  more  Sufficient  Number  of  Assistance.  We 
then  applied  to  Col°.  Clerk  and  Col°.  Rogers  for  thirty  men  of  their 
Battalion,  which  Number  we  expect  will  arrive  on  Monday  or 
Tuesday  next. 

We  herewith  inclose  you  a  List  of  the  ringleaders  of  said  aggres- 
sors, amongst  whom  is  Henry  Sheffer,  one  of  the  J  ustices  of  the 
peace,  who  issues  his  Warrant  for  Apprehending  Captain  John 
Moore  for  returning  the  said  Aggressors  as  Absentees,  agreeable  to 
Law.  We  beg  leave  to  be  informed  how  to  proceed  against  them, 
whether  they  are  to  be  prosecuted  agreeable  to  the  civel  Law  or  the 
Military,  as  they  deserve  exemplary  punishment. 

As  Ammunition  is  highly  essential  at  this  place,  we  have  given 
Col".  Grubb  an  order  on  the  Commissary  of  Military  Stores  in  Lan- 
caster for 

If  the  Commissary  should  refuse  to  deliver  it  upon  sd.  order,  then 
you  will  please  to  take  such  measures  to  obtain  the  same  as  you 
shall  think  proper.  We  cannot  sufficiently  Express  our  sorrow  and 
anxiety  on  this  occasion,  as  we  was  informed  that  the  Aggressors 
were  all  on  horseback  last  nignt  to  pursue  the  Collecter  in  order  to 
make  an  Assault.  We  are  intended  to  bring  this  Controversie  to  an 
end  with  all  possible  Dispatch,  let  the  consequence  thereof  be  what- 
ever  they  will,  but  fear  it  will  end  with  Tragedy,  which  is  a  matter 
that  workes  daily  &  Hourly  upon  our  minds.  We  greatly  depend

upon  your  Advice,  Aid,  and  Assistance  in  the  premisses.  The 
Bearer  hereof,  Col°.  Crubb,  will  give  you  a  more  particular  Account 
of  the  Affair.

called  to  rendezvous  at  Lancaster  next  week,  and  no  positive  inarch-

the  same  must  be  mislaid,  you  will  therefore  please  to  inform  us  if 
any  marching  Orders.

PHILADELPHIA,  Febru.  15"',  1781. 
To  The  Honbu  The  Executive  Council  of  the  State  of  Pennsylvania: 

The  Representation  of  Christian  Wirtz,  Commissioner  of  Pur- 
chases for  Lancaster  County, 

Sheweth,  That  he  hath  since  his  appointment  as  Commissioner 
of  Purchases  found  the  Business  so  extensive  as  to  require  at  least 
One  Clerk  and  Two  Assistants,  and  as  it  is  well. known  that  the 
allowance  for  purchasing  of  Supplies  for  the  use  of  the  Army  is  In- 
adequate to  the  Expences  and  Fees  for  Clerks  and  Assistants,  He 
prays  The  Honble  Executive  Council  may  be  pleased  to  Grant  Al- 
lowance for  Clerk  and  Assistants,  In  order  that  he  may  be  enabled 
to  make  the  purchases  required  from  sd.  County.  It  cannot  be  ex- 
pected that  the  Commissioner  would  Sacrifise  his  private  Property 
for  that  of  the  Public.  As  he  intends  setting  out  from  the  City  to 
Day,  he  begs  Council's  Determination. 

And  will  ever  pray,  &c.,  &c.,

WILLIAM  ATLEE  TO  HENRY  MILLER. 


LANCASTER,  ye  29th  March.,  17S1. 

SIR:  I  have  just  now  received  the  enclosed  Letter  &  Warrant 
from  the  Chief  Justice  with  a  request  to  forward  it  to  you  by  Ex- 
press. 

He  writes  me  that  they  have  a  Letter  from  Governor  Jefferson 
informing  that  Gen.  Green  with  4,000,  chiefly  militia,  has  had  an 
engagement  with  Lord  Cornwallis  and  about  2,500  regulars,  about 
a  mile  and  a  half  from  Guilford  Court  House,  on  Thursday  the  15th 
instant.  The  action  continued  an  hour  &  a  half,  &  was  very  bloody. 
General  Green  thought  proper  to  retire  about  a  mile  &  a  half  in 
good  order,  &  Cornwallis  was  so  crippled  that  he  did  not  attempt 
to  follow.  The  engagement  would  have  been  renewed  the  next 
day,  but  it  proved  rainy,  &  Captain  Singleton  who  was  in  the  action 
&  brought  the  intelligence  from  camp  to  Governor  Jefferson,  then 
came  away ;  he  supposes  there  must  have  been  another  action  as 
soon  as  the  weather  cleared  up,  as  Gen'l  Green's  army  were 
in  high  spirits  and  resolved  upon  it  again.  It  is  conjectured  (the 
returns  not  being  made)  that  we  have  had  about  300  killed  & 
wounded,  among  the  former,  Major  Anderson  &  Captain  Barrett 
of  the  Maryland  Line;  and  among  the  latter,  General  Stevens, 
shot  in  the  thigh  &  brought  off,  &  Captain  Fontleroy,  shot  also  in 
the  thigh  &  left  on  the  field.  The  enemy  are  said  to  have  between 
500  &  700  killed  &  wounded. 

Also,  that  on  the  same  a  battle  was  fought  between  the  French 
and  British  fleets  near  the  Capes  of  Virginia ;  it  continued  an  hour 
&  45  minutes.  The  British  were  considerably  superior  in  number 
A:  force,  having  12  ships  to  9,  and  the  consequence  was  that  the 
British  got  into  Chesapeak  &  the  French  returned  to  Rhode  Island, 
without  a  vessel  being  taken  or  lost  on  either  side. 

You  will  oblige  me  if  you  will  mention  to  Mr.  Zachary  Shugart 
of  your  town,  that  I  shou'd  be  very  glad  to  see  him  here,  if  he  cou'd 
make  it  suit  him  to  take  a  ride  this  far, — the  Council  having  re- 
quested me  to  make  some  inquiry  of  him  respecting  some  transac- 
tions of  some  of  our  people  while  on  Long  Island. 
Please  my  compliments  to  Col.  Hartley  &  your  Family. 
I  am,  Sir,  with  esteem,

WILLIAM  ATLEE  TO  SAMUEL  J.  ATLEE. 


LANCASTER,  ye  16  Sept.,  17S1. 

DEAR  BROTHER  :  The  bearer  of  this,  Mrs.  Bradburn,  is  in  pur- 
suit of  her  Husband.  It  is  said  by  some  that  he  is  in  N.  York,  & 
by  others  that  he  is  in  Jersey.  She  can  give  you  the  circumstances 
of  his  going  away  from  hence. 

If  when  she  arrives  in  Philada.  she  should  be  able  to  learn  where 
he  is,  &  that  he  is  N.  York,  she  purposes  tQ  go  to  him,  but  as  that 
can't  be  done  witlfsafety  to  herself,  without  proper  passports,  the 
begs  me  to  write  to  you  &  request  you  will  give  her  such  assistance 
in  that  way  as  you  may  with  propriety. 

The  poor  woman  is  much  distressed.  We  have  endeavoured  to 
prevail  with  her  to  stay  here,  where  she  has  two  Children  }'et  re- 
maining, but  to  no  purpose,  &  she  is  in  a  bad  condition  for  travel, 
ling. 

I  thank  you  much  for  being  so  attentive  to  us  Country  Folks  in 
forwarding  the  News  *fc  Papers. 

&  am  your  affect.  Bro., 

WILL.  ATLEE. 

I  wish  I  could  get  logdings  at  Jacob  Bargees  when  I  come  down 
next  week. 


COL.  ADAM  HUBLEY  TO  PRESIDENT  MOORE. 


LANCASTER,  November  20th,  1781. 

SIR  :  Inclosed,  I  transmit  your  Excellency,  the  Proceedings  of  a 
general  Court-martial,  with  other  papers,  held  for  the  Trial  of  sun- 
drey  Prisoners  of  the  Militia  on  duty  at  this  place,  for  your  Excel- 
lency's perusal  &  orders  thereupon. 

Your  Excellency  will  observe,  that  Stephen  Long  &  James  Dick, 
Two  of  the  Prisoners  are  recommended  for  a  Pardon.  Circum- 
stances, in  my  opinion  justify  the  lenity  of  the  Court,  and  I  would 
beg  to  add  (&  particularly  as  I  am  requested  by  some  of  the  members 
of  ye  Court)  your  Excellency's  mercy  should  also  be  extended  to 
the  other  two  Prisoners,  viz:  George  Lenhare  &  Titrich  Row. 
The  whole  behaviour  of  those  lads  proceeded  (as  it  now  clearly  ap- 
pears to  me)  from  ignorance  &  a  culpable  conduct  of  some  of  the 
ollicers. 

Mr.  Hambright  has  requested,  I  would  mention  his  situation  to 
your  Excellency  &  Council,  his  .situation  with  respect  to  the  Bar- 
racks at  this  place.  Notwithstanding  his  frequent  applications  to 


550  ASSOCIATED  BATTALIONS 

the  Board  of  War,  <&c.,  for  money  to  keep  them  in  proper  order,  he 
lias  not  been  furnished  with  a  six  pence,  nor  can  he  procure  on  the 
Credit  of  the  public  even  a  person  to  sweep  the  Chimneys.  The 
Barfacks  at  several  times,  for  want  of  sweeping  has  taken  fire,  and 
unless  he  is  enabled  to  keep  the  chimneys  clean,  I  fear  some  acci- 
dent will  in  the  course  of  this  winter  take  place.  As  the  Prisoners 
are  not  the  most  careful  people,  nor  would  they  care  anything  if 
they  burned  to  the  ground. 

From  those  circumstances,  your  Excellency  &  Council  will  pro- 
bably judge  it  necessary  to  give  some  orders,  and  enable  the  Bar- 
rack-master to  have  them  put  and  kept  in  order.  Some  other 
necessary  repairs  are  also  wanting,  which  Council  will  likewise 
please  to  consider. 

I  wrote  your  Excellency,  some  time  hence,  respecting  Cartridge- 
boxes  now  in  the  Possession  of  Mr.  Henry.  I  would  beg  to  remind 
your  Excellency  thereof. 

I  have  the  Honor  to  be  with  every  respect, 

Your  Excellency's  most  Ob1.  &  very  D.  Serv1.,

SIR  :  Colo.  Kucher  requests  your  Excellency  will  present  to  Couiu 
cil  the  inclosed  resignation  of  his  office  as  Sub-Lieutenant  of  Lan- 
caster County,  and  prays  Council  will  please  to  accept  of  it.

place,  that  some  person  should  as  soon  as  possible  be  appointed  to 
succeed  Mr.  Kucher. 

I  shall  take  the  liberty  to  recommend  as  a  proper  person  for  that

LANCASTER,  May  29th,  17S2. 

SIR  :  I  have  advanced  £2,448  towards  Recruiting  the  Pennsyl- 
vania Line,  Forty  Eight  pounds  more  than  I  have  orders  for.  The 
Recruiting  Service  goes  on  but  slowly.  I  should  for  my  part  be 
glad  to  have  my  Account  settled,  and  perhaps  it  would  be  prudent 
for  Col".  Thompson  to  have  his  settled  with  the  officers,  as  there  is 
little  more  to  be  done  at  present.  I  returned  yesterday  from  Car- 
lisle, where  I  was  summoned  to  give  Evidence  in  Behalf  of  the 
State  in  General  Robevdeau's  Action  for  Damages  sustained  in 
Carrying  on  the  Lead- Works  on  Juniata.  The  Jurey  found  for  the
