25. Capt. Peter4 b. Jan. 10, 1752 at Coventry, R. I .; was witness to a deed from Joseph Thomas to Samuel Baker, Jan. 7, 1768; selectman of New Durham, 1783; having "served as a Captain in Col. Stephen Peabody's Regiment in Rhode Island in the year 1778" petitioned June 6, 1785, to have the deprecia- tion of his pay made up to him, Col. Thomas Tash signing the petition in his behalf; was murdered by Elisha Thomas at New Durham, Feb. 4, 1788.


The circumstances attending the murder were as follows:


A number of persons had assembled at the tavern of a Mr. Randall. Among others present were Col. Tash, Capt. Peter Drowne, a son of Col. Tash and Elisha Thomas. Thomas getting into a dispute with one of those present, took a stone in his fist, and was dealing his blows with a great deal of violence, when Captain Drowne pained at the inhuman sight stept between them, and taking Thomas to one side of the room endeavored by soft words to cool down his resentment and dissuade him from continuing such conduct, but instead of stopping Thomas drew a knife and plunged it into Drowne's breast, Drowne

dying within a few hours. Thomas threatened death to any who should approach him, and wounding several times the son of Col. Tash who endeav- ored to seize him, made his escape, but was soon apprehended and lodged in Dover jail. In due time he was tried, convicted, sentenced to death, and was hung at Dover, June 4, 1788. A previous endeavor to escape was unsuccessful.


Some days after his committal to jail, his wife taking the youngest of her six children in her arms to one of the neighbors, set out for Dover to visit her husband. During the night following the eldest of her five other children, a boy, was awakened by the falling of a board on his bed, and saw that the house was in flames. Springing up instantly he attempted to save his four brothers and sisters, but was unsuccessful and they perished in the flames, he only escaping to tell the tale.


But misfortunes did not come singly. As Mrs. Thomas was returning in a sleigh from Dover to New Durham, the horses took fright and running against another sleigh, the "tongue came with such force against the unhappy woman's side as to break three of her ribs, and it was with the greatest difficulty she escaped being torn in pieces."

(24). Dea. Samuel4 (Rev. Samuel,3 Solomon,2 Leonard1) was born in Provi- dence, R. I., Oct. 25, 1749; married Mary, daughter of Capt. Thomas and Dorothy (Stover) Pickering, who was sister of Capt. Thomas of Revolu- tionary fame and of Olive who married George Jerry Osborne; settled in Portsmouth; was a noted patriot of the Revolution; lived on State St., and kept shop opposite Long wharf; his connection with and version of the capture of Fort William and Mary, Dec. 1774, gives great credit to Capt. Thomas Pickering, his brother-in-law, Maj. John Langdon and about 40 other patriots of Portsmouth, all the powder captured passing through the hands of Langdon and himself.


In 1775, the ship of war Scarborough commanded by Capt. Barclay was in the lower harbor. The captain was accustomed to seize American fishing craft, and send a boat ashore for provisions for his crew and the King's forces at Boston. Captain Pickering greatly resented this action. One day borrow- ing Drowne's musket, which Mrs. Drowne, his sister, handed him, he stationed himself behind a pile of lumber on the wharf with a companion, Samuel Hutchins, to hold his ammunition and ram-rod, and blazed away at the advance boat. The musket did good execution. Though the boat proceeded on her trip that day, this much is certain, the Scarborough's provision boat never repeated the attempt to visit the Portsmouth market. Captain Picker- ing died unmarried in command of the Hampden, a privateer of 20 years, March 1779, aged 32.


When in 1775, Gov. John Wentworth left his seat on Pleasant St., he entrusted the care of his place to Dea. Drowne, and it was afterwards recov- ered by the Wentworth family. Dea. Drowne signed the Association Test
