ments from multitudes of the inhabitants even the Coughnawaga Indians - That he was soon after Transported to Quebec where he was put into Jail for several Days and from thence sent to the Lower end of orleans Together with many other Prisoners under the care of Two British officers, from whence he made his Escape the fifteenth of May last. That no vessells of any kind, had then arrived from Urope That the City of Quebec was also alarmed by a Party from Kenebeck to Sategan. [?] That great Numbers of the inhab- itance from the South Shoar, and elsewhere, was taken up and con- fined, who ware still suffering in Jail when he left that Country - That at least 3th of the inhabitance of Canada would have joined the Continental Standard immediately on the arrival of a Party of their Troops over the Ice in the winter. That the whole force of Canada does not exceed 2000 men in arms-Two families of indians from St Francois, which place they left the last of May inform that both .: Canadians and indians ware greatly Disappointed in the failure of our last winters expedition. That the heavy cannon ware a moving from St John to Quebec, that they are still ready to join our armies . in that Country - a Chief of the Sategan Tribe was also at Hagen river, who confirms the above information, and he also adds that the Satagan Tribe to the number of one hundred families have left there village at Sategan and came to rocamico on Ammescoggen River and are Determined not to return to Canada - That the cause of their removal was the Threats and frowns from the Governor, for suffering that part of Canada to be alarmed by a small Party of the rebels the last winter and most solemnly Promising that if any thing of that sort. should happen in future their Habitations should be Distroyed and village burnt - a Scouting Party has returned from St John's without makin any great Discoverys, they say that there is a number of new buildings at St John's a block house on the east side the river in which is a few Troops and a small guard of indians, That they think there is not above Two hundred Troops at St Johns That they saw two large Ships and some other small Craft take in Pro- visions at St Johns and afterwards sail up the lake, which informa- tion they thought necessary to bring as soon as Possable to this place all the above intelligence I am confident may be relied on.

Sir - Your favour I received by Capt Nelson am sorry to hear of the uneasiness which has prevailed among the men, they may depend upon it every thing in my power shall be done to make every thing easy - I have sent you Inclosed Copies of Letters to Gen1 Gates - the Commanding officer at Albany, the Instructions given to the offrs and a copy of a Letter from Gen1 Stark's to Govr Chittenden by which you may Judge of the Reasons of our Treatment - I wod have you use your Influence with the Men as much as possible to make them easy for a short space of Time. I am convinced it will not be long and I believe Cloathing &c will arrive for them - Colº Hazen upon his arrival at Head Quarters will be able to give a particular account of our Situation here in this Quarter. I wod have you immediately upon the Receipt of this proceed to Gen1 Gates as you will see by the Inclosed I have nothing more at present to write to him, but Spies have been discovered three different ways, one of which is taken he was from Canada, and informs he expected a Party wod had been upon this River before this. The main weight of the Men wod willingly have marched to Albany, only leaving a Guard here had it not been for Gen1 Starks Letter to Govr Chittenden, and the Com- mittees were not willing, as they supposed every thing here to be in the utmost danger, they are willing to march to the Northward agree- able to their Inlistments - If things are likely to succeed for an Expedition to Canada which you will find by Gen1 Gates, you will desire the liberty for our men to return and others sent to relieve them as we shall be more handy here to March this way. I shall be glad to know your proceedings if you can get Liberty to come your- self shall be glad, otherwise send by Express -
I have parties out three different ways into Canada and have sent Surveyors to Plan and mark the Roads, that Gen1 Bayleys Sentiments agree's with mine and has wrote pretty much the same to Gen' Gates as you find my Letter, it will be necessary you shod return as speedy as possible if we march this way you may inform the Gen1 we shall be able to raise about 1500 or 2000 Men to March into that Country - Your idea of the Circumstances of the affair & the Copies you receive will point out to you what you think will be best to Commu- nicate to Gen1 Gates, you will use all precautions imaginable to bring things to bear and use your utmost endeavours to accomplish every- thing you may judge for the good of the service - I saw one of the . Chiefs of the Satagan Tribe at Hegan River who informs that both

Canadians and Indians were greatly disappointed in the failure of our last Winters Expedition - that the heavy cannon were moving from St Johns to Quebec that they are still ready to join our army in that Country also that the Satigan tribe to the Number of one hun- dred families have left their Village at Sattigan and come to Roca- meco on Ammoscogan River and are determined not to return to Canada, that the cause of their removal was the threats & frowns from the Enemy, for suffering that part of Canada to be alarmed by a small party of the Rebels last winter, and most solmenly promising that if any thing of that sort should happen [in the] future their Hab- itations shod be destroyed & village burnt - some things are not to be made known to every one which you will I make no doubt observe

Boston monday morning July 20th 1778
Dear Sir - Imbrace the Earliest opportunity by a Person who is going no further than Newbury Port, but hope this will get to hand by Wednesday. I acquainted you in my last that I could do nothing at Newbury the articles we wanted were not to be had, then made the best dispatch in my way to Salem, where I arrived safe Fryday afternoon Immediately applied to M' Stephen Higginson for the goods and shew him my memorandum, but upon going round the Town, found the Connecticut and Rhode Island agents, had made sweeping work by their large purchases, and bought up the Linnens, Stockings &c. that in short nothing left of the kind to be purchased, but as there is a Grand Prize arrived at Salem taken by one of their Privateers in the mouth of Canada River, valued at Thirty thousand Pounds Sterling, M' Higginson has Promised me to Examine the Invoices and by Wednesday to write me whether the articles are on Board said Prize that we want to purchase. A Saturday when I got to Boston, went upon the search again for the goods, but at Present have no prospect of Succeeding, however I have applied to a worthy acquaintence of mine who will do every thing in his power to assist me in the affair. Shall soon write you again whether to send the waggons or not - If can procure this morning Newspaper will inclose it pr this opportunity. I hope you have Purchased Capt. Woodbury's Osnabrigs I am agoing to make another visit round the Town this Forenoon, to see what can be done - I have nothing further at Present, but am Dr Sr with great esteem

Boston July 23ª 1778 -
Dr Sir - I recd your Favour of the 20th Instant and observe the Contents, deliv'g the Certificates, Message about Sugar, and Capt Langdons Tichlenburgs, and also of M' Leigh, Returning towards North River - I find the articles we want Exceeding scarce and dear. I have purchased about nine Bolts of osnaburgs and one of Tichlenburgs at 8/ pr yard, and about 400 yards of other Cloaths that will answer the same end, but am obligd to pick it up in every part of the Town - I have also purchased about 15 doz yarn Stock'gs very high and no more at present to be had, all the thread hose I have been able to purchase ; there is but one man that I can Persuade to take the Certificates, hope to pay them away this Morning for Linnen &c. Shall be able to Fill Two If not Three hhds of goods and beg the Fa- vour of you to Forward the Waggon as soon as Possible. If I leave Boston before the Waggon arrives I shall leave the goods in the Care of Ellis Gray Esq' to be Del'd your order - I fell in with Mr Cush- ing the last Evening who had a Vessell Just arrived from France, out of which I hope to get a Further Supply. - I shall do every thing that Lays in my Power to procure the goods, which at Present Cannot be done, unless they are on Board M' Cushings ship from France. If I have goods of any Person I must Engage the Running Money - therefore please to Lay in with the Treasurer for that to be had as soon as Possible as the Credit given here will be very short -
Its Recommended by Gen1 Washington to the State to send out all their vessels of Force to Intercept the Cork fleet bound to New York with provisions, take the hint and send the Sullivan -
I shall git home as soon as Possible - Excuse the above being in great haste -
I am D' S' with great esteem, yr Friend & hum1 Servant

North Castle July 24th 1778 -
Sir - This will be delivered you by M' Nicholas Nichols and serves to inclose you Rects for Cash & Flower agreeable to the In- closed Invoice - Possably the Long Detention of the Waggons may occasion some degree of surprise on the part of the H. Board - therefore would beg leave to observe in General Terms that the very uncertain Movements of our Army made a step of this nature Indis- pensably necessary - however painful and Disagreeable it was to me to have on hand so many of the Necessarys that the troops stood in much need of - yet their moveable posture put it Intirely out of my power to administer to them any kind of Relief - however on the whole have acted intirely agreeable to Gen1 Poors advice and as that Gent has wrote the board on the occasion hope shall not be even sus- pected of being Inattentive to my business - I would Just Beg leave to observe to the H. Board that yesterday and the day before I Issued to the troops to a Considerable Amount - Accord'g to Rule in about three weeks a payment of the troops will take place and then shall without loss of time make the most spediest Remittance to the H. Board - In order that they may in some Measure be Enabled to Further the virtuous intentions of Government in forward'g to Camp such ample supplys so that I may be Enabled to act myself by deliv- ering to each man an adequate supply of such necessarys as he may stand in need of - there is no consideration would Tempt me Either to Flatter Government or the Honle Board and would wish through the Channell of the Board yt Government might be made acquainted that a Perseverance of the Present plan in supply'g their troops at the Reasonable Rates they are now fixt at will quickly Regain them the Confidence of their troops - In short the most sensible part of them are highly pleased at the thoughts of their not being so much neglected as heretofore - and I make not the least doubt but did the H. Board know how much our troops suffered during the Course of the last Winter they would Fully Join in sentiment with me that under God his Excellency our General is indebted to the virtue of the Soldiery for that Respectable Army he now Commands - In mine of the 2ª Inst I transmitted t1 H. Board everything I at that time knew with Respect to the Memorable Battle of Monmouth and still Believe that acct to be nearly right with this addition that the num- bers of the Enemy slain Included about 40 supposed to be Buried by the Enemy themselves & had his Excellencys plan bin as well Ex- ecuted as it was (in my opinion) laid it doubtless would have bin still more Important - however I cannot but think it an Important

affair : for at least it will serve to Convince the whole world that the Americans Dare face their Enemy in the Open Field & Beat them too with Inferior numbers-the principal part of our army now layes at the White plains - its Impossible for a man to Determine what will be done but I am rather Inclinable to think yt something impor- tant will soon take place - for as it is expected yt a very powerfull fleet of Spanish Ships is arrived by this to act In Conjunction with the French, I cannot think that a Force so strong both by sea & land will Remain long in a state of Inaction - But doubtless a short time will Determine -You doubtless will be informed by the wag- goners of their misfortune in looseing their wheels & one of their horses for a short space, I humbly Conceive it to be absolutely neces- sary that both Horses & Waggon Wheels ought to be stampt with some kind of a mark so that they may be known when seen again - In your esteemed favour of the 10th Inst Received # Coll Titcomb am inform'd I may soon expect a supply of Rum &c and shall only ob- serve yt Immediately on their arrival shall Dismiss ym with a load of Flower haveing already purchased & made payment for enough for three Waggons - Youl find in the Invoice three Bbls of superfine Flower with different marks - its true I had no orders for so doing but then if any loss shall accrue to Government will be answerable for the same - The absolute necessity of my Return'g without loss of time to where my goods are stored prevents my being so particular as I could wish, therefore in my next will Descend more Into particu- lars and in the Interim youl give me leave to assure you that I am with all possible marks of Esteem,

Camp at White Plains July 25th 1778
Dear Sir I am very sorry to find that by the Present Cestem [System ?] of Politicks our proposed expedition to Canada, must be Post poned. Congress, the Commander in Chief, and Gen1 Gates, have the union of that Country much at heart - But the arrival of the french fleet and the effectual measures which they have taken to block up Lord Howes fleet both at New York and Rhode Island, Com- mands the attention of our Generals to this Quarter, in hopes of Burgoining Clintons Army -
With respect to your own Regt Colo Wheelock will inform you. I would advise your sending over to Albany all the men that you can persuade to march - the remainder may be retained untill matters are further settled as scouting parties and to guard your frontier &c.
let General Bayley draw a Petition to Congress seting forth in the strongest terms the utility of that Country at present to the Public, it being a frontier, and the service it may be of in a future Day, on an expedition to Canada. The services which you have heretofore rendered the Public &c. which you or.Col. Wheelock should carry to Congress and get the Regt settled some way or other on a Certain footing. Shall be glad to hear from you and to know the report of the Parties you sent into Canada and to survey the road.
I am yours &c
