In Oct., 1785, Capt. ROSWELL GRANT again memorializes the legisla- ture, as paymaster of the First Brigade of the Short Levies (appointed Feb., 1781 ), that the said levies were promised for their services in the cam- paign of 1780. El per month, State money, and that he cannot get from the Pay Table Committee but a half the sum advanced, ete., and is unable property to close his accounts, and prays for due relief, which was granted by vote of the Assembly .- Conn.

Capt. Grant was again appointed paymaster to the First Brigade Oct., 1786. Jbid .. xix. 46.

In the same line of official distress is the following, also ( J'onn. State Archives, Rerol. War, xxiv. 152) :

in behalf of himself & the rest of the Selectnien of East Windsor

Capt. Grant's case was nearly two years after peace had been de- cJared : but it was far from being the only similar case. ITHAMER BRIG- HAM of East Windsor in May. 1784. as having been " Issuing Commissary of Refreshments to the Connecticut line of the late army. from 30 May, 1777. to Sept. 11. 1780." complains to the Assembly that there is, upon closing his accounts with the Pay Table Committee, still a balance dne him of $267 13x. 97. lawful money, ele., which has left him in a very unpleasant fix. and he applies for relief, which apparently he did not get .--- Conn. Archives, Rer. War. xxvii. 239.

Captain JAMES CHAMBERLAIN of East Windsor. in January. 1783. memorializes the Assembly to the effect that in Ang., 1776, by permissi m of the governor, he had raised a volunteer company of thirty horsemen. which joined Col. Samuel Chapman's regiment and marched to Now York, where they did good service ; and he had not ( up to date of his peti- tion ) received full return for moneys paid out of his own pocket for the wages of his men and for team transportation for their baggage. He was duly relieved by the Assembly. - Conn. Archives, Rer. War. xxXIV. 195: xxix. 209.

AMASA LOOMIS of East Windsor again comes to the front. in a peti- tion to the Assembly, in Jone, 1786, concerning a very serious loss (owing to the depreciation in curreney ) arising from his not having been fully paid for his services as clerk and conductor in the Ordnance Department at Springfield, from March 20, 1777, to 28 June, 1780,- Conn. State Archives, Rer. Var, xxix. 215.

An interesting example of this class of cases is that of the Rev. NATHANIEL SHERMAN of East Windsor, who petitions the Assembly in Oct .. 1787, that in Feb., 1778, he sold a house and land (his only real estate ) in Mt. Carmel. Com., for 6600, which sum he loaned to the United States on annal interest, on which he depended for his family's support : that smee Feb. 1782, he had received no interest, except about $100 in cer- tificates, there being no money in the treasury. These he could not rash or otherwise dispose of for his needs, and so exchanged them for a note for money loaned to the State of Connecticut, which became due and was given for moneys due on the civil list : but no provision seems to have been made by the State for payment, etc. He states that he is in- firm, in ill-health, has a wife and several children to support : is unable to work and is without credit, and thus concludes :

" Wherefore your Memorialist humbly prays your honors | to order payment of said sum due to him for interest as aforesaid | out of some Fund that will afford him immediate relief - or | some part thereof - or grant him some present relief | by way of gratuity, or to be repaid when he shall obtain his | interest - or grunt him a bill to ask charitable \ contributions, of some of the congregations in this state in some other of the twins than that the rain he dicells and \ be ux in duty bound shall ever pray, and he will | lodge his certificates with the treasurer as a pledge | and as in duty bound shall ever

Due consideration was given to his plaint by the Assembly, which. however, could not see its way clear to relieve him ; but finally granted him a gratuity of €80 from the public treasury. Again and again (October, 1788, and January, 1789), in his great need, he returned to the charge : and on this final effort, his brother, the well-known Hon. Roger Sherman, Ient the weight of his inthience, especially in a letter to Gov. Huntington, wherein he says :

" his case is truly calamitous, he has no means of | Support but from the monies due to him from the | I'nited States, which he cannot at present obtain, | Congress having no means to raise money but by - | requisition to the several states - It seems hard | that a Virtuous Citizen should be left to perish in [ a Christian Country, when the most protligate | and abandoned Vagrant when reduced to want is | provided with a supply out of the public Treasury. | If his memorial cannot be resumed or anything | granted upon it I would humbly request in This beball that part of his public se curities lodged | in the Comptrollers office may be returned to him | retaining a sufficient sum to secure the state | for the 230 loaned to him the last year - "

And this finally was granted. - Conn. State Archives, Rer. War. xxix. 157, 161: xxxvi, 158; xxxvii. 12, 13, 14.

As late, also, as the May and October sessions of the General Assembly of 1789, memorials were presented from Erastus Wolcott. Lemuel Stoughton, Amasa Loomis, and William Grant. Selectmen and Collectors of East Windsor (from 1785-89), setting forth that there was then "due to the State from the ancient Town of East Windsor ( now East Windsor and Ellington ) about 8800 of the twelve-penny tax of July, 1782, and about $200 of the six-penny tax, payable in July, 1787." for which they (the memorialists) were legally responsible, and for which executions had been issued and were " pressing for immediate pay ment," and urging that, as " by reason of sundry difficulties and embar- rassments, it is utterly beyond our power to collect the money and settle," ete. These diffienlties were dne, they say, "to the negligence of former collectors and a mistaken Indulgence in Government, for this money was the arrearges of thirty-three distinct State taxes payable in 1779. '80. '>1. '82. 53, and 'S1; and principally dne from the poorer part of the people; it was to them equall to a tax of ten or twelve shil- lings on the pound, and on interest against them."

They furthermore claimed that they had, by the most strenuous ox- ertions, since January, 1785, effected a settlement with the Treasurer equal to Fast Windsor's proportion of more than £580,000 State taxes : but that, as to the balance still due, they " meet with difficulties that we cannot surmount."

" There is due the State from E. W. including Ellington, on the 12º tax payable in .July, 1782, about 5741 in hard money | & some Interest -this money the inhabitants have also long since paid to | the collector, and from the fourgoing farts it is casey to ser that it is | Impossable for Many of them to pay this Money a second time- especially | considering the present scarety of cash-and that by our present Mode | of taxation a greater proportion of all publick expence is laid on | a certain class of our Citizens (not the Most able to pay) that is, | or ever was laid by any other state or king- dom

The Collector of this tax had also to collect a tax of three pence on the pound | and a tax of two pence on the Pound to pay the army notes due in 1782, and | the In terest of those Notes-which taxes could then he discharged only in hard | Money on those Notes and the certificates drawn that year which Securities | were then Nearly of the Value of hard Money-the collector was a young man Son of Daniel Eleworth Exer and In Imprudently settled those tares \ before he Collected them from the people the Assembly afterwards | abated another 20hs parte and he had to receive from the Treasurer about eso that he had overpaid-they also made other Notes and | Certificates receivable on sd taxes-and he was obliged to receive from | the Treasurer and people a large Sum in State Securities that could Not | be applyed to pay this hard Money and of Not More than halfe | the Value of those he paid into the Treasury | then he was unable to settel with the Treasurer, and was committed to prison, we took his | Note & released him from Goal and have an execution against him | for the Money - in the Mean time a distress Issued against us, and | then against the Inhabitants, whereupon we gave to Ezekiel Williams | Esq' late Sheriff for Hartford County our Receipt for Stock Sufficient to pay East Windsors proportion of set fax & Gentlemen in Ellington for their parte of sa tax which Receipts have been put in sute and he has an Execution against us for about £660 and is pressing | for payment - thus hy undertaking to be publick officers we are become legally Indebted to the State about 2660 and by receiv ing | those State Securities we are Creditors to the State.

To your Honours therefore we apply and pray that on our Delivering | to the Treasurer State Notes to the sum of $800 he be directed | to give Credit on se Tax $400 or Such other Sum as is Just | & reasonable on a full Consideration of those peculiar Circumstances attending | this Case |

And Suffer us to ask, must tre be Committed to prison, offering you \ in Payment your own Notes with a Discount of fifty pr Chat?

The execution against these unhappy selectmen was finally sus- pended by order of the General Assembly. - Conn. Arch., Rer. War. xxxvii. 93, 118, 119.

REVOLUTIONARY SOLDIERS FROM EAST WINDSOR.

A LIST OF SOLDIERS FURNISHED TO THE AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY ARMY FROM THE TOWN OF EAST WINDSOR INCLUDING THE PRESENT TOWNS OF EAST AND SOUTH WINDSOR AND ELLINGTON ..

. R.

In compiling this list we have relied upon original documentary evi- dence. The Town's records are lamentably imperfect ; and there is little doubt that many soldiers (especially those who were in service in the summer of 1776 ) will never be honored by any recorded recognition of their valor. As far as any existing memorials in East Windsor, we have ben obliged to rely upon such of the loose papers, memoranda, and cor- respondence of Capt. ROSWELL GRANT, Capt. LEMUEL STOUGHTON, Mr. EBENE- ZER GRANT, Deacon ELI OLCOTT, LiOut. ALEXANDER KING, as have been pre- served by their descendants. These gentlemen were active in the ser- vive, or at home in ordering the affairs of the town ; and, if it had not been for the mass of old papers found by Miss Sperry in the garrets of their former dwellings, East Windsor would have had but a sorry show- ing as to her Revolutionary History. Tradition has helped to give us a "clue " here and there; and the recently published Official Record of Connecticut in the Revolution (see p. 34) has helped us by diligent efforts to " elinch " the facts gathered. Much of the difficulty we have encountered in our work has been owing to the fact that, in the Revolu- tionary (as in our recent ) war men frequently enlisted in companies, recruited in towns adjacent to those of their proper residence : and often. whole " squads" of East Windsor men are found (on diligent search ) to be credited on the regimental rolls to Windsor or other adjoining towns. Names also appear on the rolls of E. W. companies, of men who belong to the militia companies of other towns adjoining, and were detached (under the emergencies of service-draft ) from the companies. to fill ont the quota of E. W., and rice persa : so that the making out of a correct list of E. W. soldiers presents many unforeseen and puzzling problems to the enquirer. We do not profess to have attained perfect accuracy. though we have striven for it.

It must be remembered that the East Windsor militiamen belonged to the Nineteenth Connectient Militia Regiment, under command of Col. Terry of Enfield. They were divided (during the greater part of the war) into the following companies, viz. : Capt. Lemuel Stoughton. North Parish : Capt. Roswell Grant, South Parish (now South Windsor) ; Capt. Charles Ellsworth, of Ellington. All these captains were, more or loss, in active service ; and, consequently, their commands at home, known as - Alarm Lists" see p. 651, fell more or less into the hands of Capt. Hezekiah Bissell, North Parish : Capt. Amasa Loomis, South Parish ; and Capt. Ichabod Wadsworth, of Ellington. This is, per-

HISTORY OF ANCIENT WINDSOR.

haps, as close a statement as can now be made. It is evident, from a due consideration of the papers which have come under our observation. that these Alarm List captains (all of whom had themselves seen active service in the first year of the war) had plenty of business in for- warding drafts from their respective alarm lists; in hearing and deciding upon excuses : in furnishing and equipping the drafted men, attending to the support of their families, etc .; in correcting official returns from the War Department as to men claimed to be from their town (or vice versa ): and in all the details which devolve upon military officers in time of war. And it also seems to be quite evident in comparing the various alarm lists, lists of men drafted for special duties, etc., that but very few able- bodied males, young or old, black, white, or Indian, in Old East Wind- sor escaped the opportunity of doing some duty for their country's sake.

Those portions of the text enclosed within [square] brackets, are (like those similarly distinguished in the Windsor Revolutionary List ) from the Official Record of Connecticut Men in the Revolutionary War.
