beginning of the wars with the Indians, Capt. Gerish was at his house with a company of soldiers intending to go to Salem. Capt. Geerish wanted money to lay out for the soldiers, and he lent him 20s. and charged him for it. When they came to an accounting, said Gerish told him that he must charge the country for it which he did, but the constable refused to pay it and the Captain paid it.


Thomas Hale, jr., deposed that sometime in the winter of 1676, being in the room where the militia of Newbury were met at Goodman Doel's, there was a great contest between Capt. Gerish and Joseph Pick, constable, the Captain press- ing very hard to have the total sums entered without men- tioning the particulars. The constable strongly opposed him, saying that those who were ashamed to enter the par- ticulars should have no money of him, but the Captain was so enraged that he was afraid the constable would be run down by him and yield, in which case the Captain would establish a precedent whereby he would have opportunity to cheat the country. Deponent called out the constable and advised him to mind what he did and not to do that which he might afterward repent of. Sworn in court.
