THE HEROES OF FOUR WARS.


French and Indian War -- The Revolution-War of 1812-War of the Rebellion.


IN four memorable wars has Peterborough been represented by her gallant sons. In the first, the French and Indian War of 1755, were James Turner, brother of Thomas Turner, Samuel Wallace, William Swan, son of old John Swan. Of these, James Tur- ner died in camp at Crown Point, 1760. In 1756, Thomas Cuningham, and Samuel Cuningham. The former, who was a lieutenant, died of small-pox.


In 1757, Charles McCoy, John Stuart, son of Wil- liam Stuart, David Wallace, son of Major Wallace, William Wilson, brother of Major Robert Wilson, Robert McNee, son of old Deacon McNee, John Dinsmore, John Kelley, brought up by Rev. Mr. Harvey. All the above, being enlisted in Rodgers' company of Rangers, were killed in one unfortunate moment, having fallen into an Indian ambuscade, March 13, 1758, near Lake George ; while Samuel Cuningham and Alexander Robbe, being of this brave but unfortunate band, and in the same fight, escaped.


In 1758, William Scott, Jeremiah Swan, Samuel


Stinson, Alexander Scott. Of these, Jeremiah Swan died in camp.


In 1759, Robert Wilson, Daniel Allat, John Tag- gart, William Scott, George MeLeod.


In 1760, Samuel Gregg, John Taggart, Samuel Cun- ingham, William Cuningham, Moore Stinson, Henry Ferguson, John Swan, William Scott, Solomon Turner, John McCollom, John Turner, John Hogg, David Scott. Of these, John Turner and John McCollom died somewhere on the lake, and John Hogg and David Scott, son of Alexander Scott, both took the small-pox in returning, and died at home.


The whole number enlisted from Peterborough was thirty-two, and fourteen were lost, a great number from a settlement so small and weak.
