" Voted, that those persons of the troop of horse of the town of Windsor, to the number of five persons that shall be detached to serve in the foot for six months shall have the same encouragement as to bomity and wages made good to them, including the bounty and wages they shall receive of this State, as those of the foot of this town detached for six months by vote of this town." This was accompanied with the same privilege of interest, if they shall lodge their money with the town treasurer as above.
Ample provision was made at a subsequent meeting to guard against any inconvenience of loss by the depreciation of the continental car- rency.
"At a meeting, Nov. 6, 1780, voted, that the Selectmen of this town with the assistance of Capt. Benj. Aliyn, Capt. Sam'l Stoughton, Jr., Mr. Seth Dexter, and Mr Isaac Pinney. Jr .. be a committee to class the iulmbitants of the town of Windsor into so many equal classes by the list of the poles and rateable estate of the inhabitants of the town of Windsor, and others having estates in this town, given in August 1779, as the town of Windsor is deficient in their quota of men to fill up the Continental Army, and make report to their meeting on Wednesday next."
At their next town meeting, however, the people resolved not to class the town for raising their quota of men : but voted, that " Elward Griswold. Jr .. Nath'l Griswold, Elisha Strong, Alex'r Allyn, Daniel Tal- cott, Jonah Gillet, Jr., JJosiah Phelps, and Henry Allyn be a committee to Fire their quota of men to fill up the deficiency in the army." They were " empowered to art their best judgment in procuring said men as to the price given and what pay to make, and if need be to borrow such smin of money as they shall judge it necessary for the purpose of procur- ing said men, which sms that said committee shall pay out for said purpose shall be repaid to them with lawful interest." ete.

HISTORY OF ANCIENT WINDSOR.
From a letter written by Col. Roger Newberry to Gov. Trumbull, 11 Dec .. 1730, it appears that, since March, 1778, and by the Governor's direction, a guard had been established over the General Hospital Stores, located at Windsor- said guard being increased or diminished, account- ing to the amount of stores in hand - and, at time of writing, consisting of eight soldiers ; that Capt. James Hooker, who had the charge of these stores, while settling his accounts with Dr. Foster, Medical Director- General at Boston, received from him verbal orders to dismiss the guard . but, as Col. N. has received no written orders, and as " under the same Roof with the Hospital Stores," are " the medicines for the Eastern D ... partment under the care of Dr. Johonnot, with which Dr. Foster & Capt. Hooker have no concern, he does not feel justified in dismissing the guard, without the Governor's orders." -- Conn. State Arch .. Revol. Wur. xix. 275.

brought with it new drafts and responsibilities. Gen. Washington, hav- ing informed the assembly that there was an imperative necessity of raising 1,500 " three months' men." and a force equal to one-sixth part of the State's quota in the regular army, to supply deficiencies, they, at their May session. took measures to secure a voluntary enlistment of 2,100 men by the 1st of July following. All deficiencies existing after that date were to be filled by peremptory detachment. The largest part of actual service performed by these new troops was at Horseneck and vicinity, and guarding the seacoast from that place to New Haven, under charge of Briz .- Gen. Waterbury. Jr. These drafts afterwards (July) joined Washington at Phillipsburgh, N. Y., and for a while served under Gen. Heath. on the Westchester line.
Six men was the quota assigned to Windsor, who were raised by dividing the town into six classes, each of which hired a man for the service.
At town meeting. March 27, 1781.
" Voted, to apply to His Excellency the Governor, and Council of Safety for a per- mit to transport one thousand bushels of Indian corn to Rhode Island, for the sole pur- pose of enabling this town procuring Hard money to enable this town to comply with the act of the General A-sembly relative to proenring the quantity of clothing assigned to this town for the Connecticut line of the Continental army.
"Voted, that Capt. Jo-lah Phelps, Eliakim Marshall and Henry Allyn, be agents in behalf of this town to apply for said permit."
At town meeting, held. April 3, 1781,

The town to have liberty to bring in their cattle by the. 5th day of each of said months respectively."
The records of the town during the year
1782
present nothing of very special interest.
"At a town meeting held July 15, 1782, voted, That Gen. Roger Newberry and Mr Oliver Ellsworth be a committee to attend the proposed Convention to be held at llar! ford on the 16th day of July next. agreeable to the proposal made by the town of Farm ington, there to represent this town to consult and advise what is proper and necessary to be done to carry into execution the Laws of the State for preventing illicit trade undt commerce with the enemy, and to counsel and determine ur on other matters and thin. for the public good, proper for such a convention."
The requisitions made upon the different towns of the State were very heavy, and it is doubtful if they could have much longer sustained the continued drain to which they had for so many years been subjected. The town of Windsor, in common with others, began to evinee a flagging. not in her patriotism or cheerfulness, but in her ability. Yet every nerve was strained to its utmost. At this juncture the God of America'- battles interposed his strong arm to save her. The surrender of Corn- wallis on the 19th of October virtually ended the long eight years' strug. gle for independence. The whole country was filled with joy and

thanksgiving. Preliminary articles were signed at Paris in November following, and on the 19th of April. 1783, a formal proclamation of peace was published to the world.
SOCIETY OF THE CINCINNATI.
At the close of the Revolution the officers of the American army felt a natural desire in some way to perpetuate the long-cherished friend- ship and social intercourse which had bound them together during the many trying scenes of the contest which had ended. Agreeably, there- fore, to the suggestion of Gen. Knox, and with the acquiescence of their beloved commander, Washington, they formed themselves, in May, 1753. into a society which they called, in honor of the Roman hero, Cincin- natus, the " Society of the Cincinnati."
This association was founded on the following - immutable" principles:
"An incessant attention to preserve inviolate those exalted rights and liberties of human nature for which they have fought and bled, and without which the high rank of a national being is a curse instead of a blessing.
"An unalterable determination to promote and cherish between the respective States, that unison and national houor so essentially necessary to their happiness and the future dignity of the American empire.
" To render permanent the cordial affection subsisting among the officers, this spirit will dictate brotherly kindness in all things, and particularly extend to the most sub- stantial acts of beneficence, according to the ability of the society, towards those officers and their families who unfortunately may be under the necessity of receiving it."
On this basis. then, these officers solemnly associated themselves into " one society of friends, to endure as long as they shall endure, or any of their eldest male posterity, and in failure thereof. the collateral branches. who may be judged worthy of becoming its supporters and members."
This society was divided into State societies. Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, and South Car- olina were thus represented. Gen. Washington was its first President- General tron 1783 till his death in 1799. He was succeeded in 1800 hy Gen. Alexander Hamilton until his death in 1804. His successor was Gen. Charles C. Pinckney, of South Carolina, who died in 1525. Since then the office has been filled by Major-Gen. Thomas Pinckney, Col. Aaron Ogden, of New Jersey, Gen. Morgan Lewis of New York, Major Popham, of the same State, and lastly Gen. Dearborn.

THE HISTORY OF DANIEL BISSELL, THE SPY.
Among the names of Windsor soldiers in the Revolution occurs that of DANIEL BISSELL, accompanied on the official return- by the ominous suffix, " deserter." The record was as undoubtedly authentic as it was unpalatable ; but enquiries among the old people suggested a probabil- ity that there were some extenuating circumstances, or possibly a satis- factory explanation. Investigations were at once instituted, and finally we had the extreme pleasure of vindicating the deserter's character. and of bringing to light the record of a life of devotion to his country's interests, and of suffering in her service, such as has been seldom par- alleled, even in the roll of brave deeds which ennoble the page of Ameri- can history.

AN INCIDENT OF 1776.
Accompanying this was a letter from Major Humphreys, in which he Says: " We hasten to furnish you with a certificate in conformity to our Hat and distinct recollection of facts, in the hope it may prove of some avail in procuring you a compensation for the perilous undertaking, in which we believe you engaged from motives of patriotism."
This testimony was further corroborated by two of his follow sor- grants, who were in the same regiment with him, and who were after- wards his neighbors in Richmond County. N. Y.
Sgt. Bissell was afterward Paymaster in Col. Bradley's Regiment in 1780, Conn. State Archives, Recol. War. xxII. 168. He also served in the campaign against the Indians in 1799, known as the Addams War. He then held the rank of 1st lieutenant in the 16th regiment of U. S. Infantry.
Still later he removed to Vermont, where he married a second wife. In 1810 he removed to Richmond, N. Y., where he died in August, 1824. aged.70 years.
His character was that of an upright, fearless, public-spirited citizen. Ilis naturally fine constitution never recovered from the privations and sufferings to which he was exposed during his service as a spy within the British lines at New York : and the maladies to which his after life was subject undoubtedly tended much to cripple his energies, and to thwart the success which those energies would otherwise have accom- plished. Yet he brought up a large family of children, all of whom have taken responsible and useful positions in life. And, to his latest hour, the remembrance of his patriotic service was a source of honorable pride, which fully compensated him for all the sufferings which it had entailed upon him.
AN INCIDENT.
At an early period in the Revolutionary struggle, and before the war had as yet fairly commenced, some of the tories (of whom there were a few in Windsor) happened one day to come across ELIHU DRAKE, then a young lad about eight years old, and, partly in earnest and partly in a joke, endeavored to compel him to say "God save the King." Fail- ing of success, they tried to intimidate him by threatening him with a ducking in the Little River. But the boy still stoutly refused. Becom- ing somewhat enraged at the young rebel, they carried their threat into execution, and thrust him under water; but as they pulled him out spluttering and choking, the only exclamation which he uttered was a fervent " God d-n the King." Again and again was the little martyr thrust under, but each time the same "God d-n the King" was all which they could estort from him, and they were obliged to release him, with many hearty curses for his stubbornness.
