State of To the Honble the General Assembly of the State New Hampshire { aforesaid, now sitting at Exeter in said State per Ad- journment this fourth Day of June A D 1777-
Humbly Sheweth the Company of Matrosses, under The Command of Captain Eliphalet Daniels, now stationed at Fort Sullivan, that they have been most of them inlisted into the Service of the State near a twelvemonth last past : that they have chearfully performed their Duty in their several Stations thus far, That at the Time of their Inlistment, they had the Word of their Captain, that their shoud be a just & equitable Advancement of their Wages, in Proportion to the Rise of the necessary Articles of Life, or have those Articles allow'd to them at the Rate they went at when they inlisted, for which he had the Assurances of the General Court. but your Petitioners, unhappyly for themselves and Families, find their monthly Wages still fixed at the Rate of. Forty one Shillings per month notwithstanding the Rise of every Article necessary for a comforta- ble Subsistence, is now nearly double, to what they were at the Time of their ingaging in the Service, which in Effect causes a Reduction of their Wages to one half of its nomenal Value; So far have the regulating Acts of this State been, from answering the intended & desired Effect,

that the Soldirey are in a worse situation, now, than before. from some people's wholly refusing to sell their Comodities. & from the extortinous Spirit of others in not regarding the Laws; Your Petitioners feel a great Concernment in their Minds, especially those that have Familes to support, when they look forward & view themselves as destin'd for the Fate of War. and when they look back upon their Families. & see them also exposed to the pinching hand of Poverty; From these Principles alone, & not from any mutinous Temper or disafection. They humbly ask Relief.
Wherefore your Petitioners pray the Honble Assembly of this State, that they will in their Wisdom & Goodness. either advance the Wages of the Soldery in their Service, or make some Provision that their Fami- lies may be supported with the necessary Articles of Life at as reasona- ble a Rate, as they were when your Petitioners inlisted into the Service, which they deem an Honour to be ingaged in.
And as in Duty bound we'll ever Pray

DIARIES OF LIEUT. JONATHAN BURTON, OF WILTON, N. H.
The originals of these diaries are the property of George S. Burton, Esq., of Boston, a descendant of the author, and are published with his permission, in the belief that all reliable matter which gives any light upon Revolutionary war movements ought to be placed in per- manent form. Lieut. Jonathan Burton was born at Middleton, Mass., September 18, 1741. He married Hulda Nichols, of that town, February 29, 1764, by whom he had nine children. He served through the Revolutionary war from Wilton, and subsequently held prominent positions, both military and civil ; was appointed captain June 19, 1786, by President John Sullivan, and brigade major August 5, 1793, by Governor Bartlett. He was a member of the board of selectmen of Wilton sixteen years, represented the town several times in the general court, and there died April 30. 1811, in the seventieth year of his age.
