GENERAL HISTORY.
Cupt. James Rogers' Company.
[Capt. James Rogers, where company follows, was a native of Hanover township, born in 1735. llis father located on the Manada prior to 1780, and left a large family of children. James seems to have been quite prominent on the frontiers, was a member of the llanover congregation, a non-commissioned officer during the French and Indian wars, and at the outset of the Revolution became an ardent patriot. He rai-ed a company of associator., and during the -trug- gle for independence was quite active. He died on the 18th of April, 1799, and is buried in Hanover Church graveyard.
James Wilson, first lieutenant, is to be distinguished from the other James Wilsons as Capt. James Wilson. He died in October, 1806, well advanced in years. He is buried in Hanover.
Henry McCormick, second lieutenant, was born in Hanover. He evidently died about the close of the Revolution, leaving sons, William, Henry, David, and daughters, Isabella and Mary.
Andrew Rogers, third lieutenant, was a brother of Capt. James Rogers. He was born in Hanover in 1745, and died on the 19th of September, 1782.
The fourth lientenant, Robert Martain, or Martin, was the son of John Martin, one of the earliest set- tlers on the Manada. He died about 1$05.
The descendants of the foregoing officers, as also of the majority of the private-, are scattered over the various States of the Union.]

He was a member of Derry congre- . gation, and his name is in the lead among the sub- scribers to the graveyard wall.
Concerning Lieuts. Matthew Hays and David Mc- Queen we have but little information. They both took the oath of allegiance as required by the State of Pennsylvania in August, 1778, before Jacob Cook, justice for Londonderry.
Ensign Thomas McCallen, a brother of the captain, was also a native of Derry, and lies interred in the old graveyard. He married, Feb. 4, 1768, Mary Boyle, of Derry. He died Oct. 12, 1806, aged seventy-one year» ; his wife Oct. 10, 1812. aged seventy-one years. On their tomb-tore is this significant sentence,-

A military convention representing the fifty-three battalions of the associators of Pennsylvania met at Lancaster on the 4th of July, 1776, to choose two brigadier-generals to command the battalions and forces of Pennsylvania. A complete report of this meeting is given with the Revolutionary history of Lebanon County, to which we refer our readers.
The Declaration of Independence was passed by the Continental Congress at Philadelphia on the same day when the military convention met at Lancaster, to wit, on July 4. 1776. On that day the thirteen Confederate Colonies dissolved their allegiance to the British crown and declared themselves free and inde-
pement, under the name of the Thirteen United States of America. From the Philadelphia Pocket we find that the Declaration was received in Paxtang on the Sth of July, and on the day following was proclaimed in the following order : " Col. Burd and the other field- offieers of his battalion repaired to John Harris', the light infantry companies marching there with their drums beating, fites playing, and the standard (the device for which is the Thirteen United Colonies) which was ordered to be displayed. After that the Declaration was read by Maj. Cornelius Cox aloud to all who were assembled, who gave their hearty assent with three loud huzzas, discharged their field-pieces, and fired in platoons."
The advice of Congress in May, 1776. that govern- ments sufficient to the exigencies of affairs should be established in such colonies as they did not already exist was seized upon by the zealons Whigs of Penn- sylvania as the excuse for the abrogation of the old government. A convention to form a new Constitu- tion was called the 15th of July. That the necessity for some change in the government was thought in- dispensable is obvious from the faint resistance that was made to the choosing of delegate -.
When the work of the convention was made public it called forth the opposition of a number of Whigs in and around Philadelphia who had not lost faith in the old government. While giving a hearty support to the cause of the Revolution, they thought the true interests of Pennsylvania could be best served by the election of men of undoubted patriotism to office under its original charter. The motives of the men who formed that convention have remained unques- tioned. Unlearned in state-craft, they framed what they thought the best form of government for the people they representedl. The members of that body, which closed its labors on the 25th of September, in- cluded two from this seetion,-Capt. Joseph Sherer, of Paxtang, and Maj. Philip Marstellar, of Lebanon.

On the 31st of July, 1776, the commissary-general of Pennsylvania made a contract with "John Ben- nett, of Harris' Island. opposite the town of Harri -- burg," to transport provisions, stores, and munitions 'of war from the town of Marietta, on the bank of said river, to Wyoming fort, near the towa of Wilkes- Barre. "Said Bennett to convey the goods safely by water, in keel-boats or in flat-boats. from Marietta to the fort within fourteen days. whenever notified of their arrival by wagon from Philadelphia. A guard of three soldiers will be detailed to accompany at i protect each boat or feet of boat- when ready to start." This protection was from vicious Tories and from Indians.
The boats need by Bennett were flat-imats of a suit- able size, such as we have seen in use to ferry aero- rivers, and, in fact, were owned by him to carry his produce, his horses and cattle to and from the main land to the village of Harrisburg, ail he then farnnul and lived upon the large island in the u ' of the

GENERAL HISTORY.
Su-quehanna on which the two sections of the great bridge rest which was built many years afterwards. We may well suppose the volume of water in the river was greater in those days of almost unent firest throughout the river water-shed, as a great freshet which occurred that very spring rose so high as to sulunerge the island, and Bennett only saved his family and all the farm cattle he had by placing them in his three flat-beats and securing them to the largest trees, fifteen feet from the ground. Such a freshet since the bridge was built would sweep itself and the abatments from the island.
He also provided keel or Durham boats. so called from Durham Creek, up the Delaware, near Easton. These kinds of boats continued to be the means of transporting iron, flour, grain, etc., from the upper portions of the Delaware, Schuylkill, and Su-que- hanna to the cities below, and of taking back again the groceries and other goods needed up the country. They will be remembered by the older inhabitants as being used upon the Schuylkill until the building of Fairmount dam in 1819, and on the Delaware until the completion of the Lehigh and the Delaware Division Canals, about 1825, rendered them obsolete.
The channel-so called by the boatmen-of the Susquehanna is peculiar, with a very rocky bed, and almost a mile wide. A boat drawing one or two feet of water, in low or moderate stages of water, would soon strike npon the rocks and be wrecked unless kept to the channel. This, even in low water, is usually about five feet deep, and runs swifter than the shallower portion checked by the scattered rocks, and it shifts and crosses the river from side to side as the largest portion of water is curved and thrown over by the foot of projecting mountains.
To force the loaded boats up against the swift cur- rent at about ten miles a day, Bennett and his men would have to walk twenty miles, and perform work harder than Napoleon's soldiers when they dragged cannon up the Allo some thirty years liter. The hoatmen, generally three to each side, used setting-poles about ten feet long. Standing near the bow, they thrust the larger end against the ground or the stones . at an inclination, and placing the upper end against their shoulder, pushed the boat forward, in fact, walked the boat from the bow to the stern, making it move forward just her own length. The impetus kept the boat from falling back until, having drawn their poles up, they walked forward again to the bow and re- peated the operation, and -o ou to the end of the day. The supplies were thu, transported from Philadelphia acro -- to the Susquehanna, rie Lancaster, in Cones- toga wagons, occupying about four days, thence pushed by toilsome steps against the descending current of the Susquehanna for ten or fourteen day -; then requiring two weeks of time and toil, now -ix and a half hours, with one man to feed an iron horse with thel and another to control hi- speed and stop bim.
Capt. John Rutherford's Company, 1776-77.
[Thi- company was in active service throughout the campaign in the Jerseys during 1776, and the roll as here given was as the company stood when they as- sembled at Middletown on the 12th of August, 1777, preparatory to their participation in the campaign around Philadelphia. The four additional nantes are on the roll for September of that year, probably join- ing the company prior to the battle of Brandywine. We have no note as to what battalion they were con- neeted with.]

HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY.
to the large number of Tories in and around Phila- delphia during the Revolution, it was decided neces- sary by the Convention of July 15, 1776, which adopted the first Constitution of the State, and by the first AAssembly acting meler it, to adopt an oath of allegiance, a measure which was absolutely neces- sary to restrain the in-dence of the Tories.
To this measure of eli-protection the Quakers of Chester, Bucks, and Philadelphia made stern resist- ance, and a nutaber of the mute prominent of theni were exiled to Virginia, as an example to others of the fate which awaited there persisting in a refusal to take the oath. In the interior counties there was little or no objection. The prople were patriotic from the first, and had an inborn hatred to British oppression and British tyranny.
