Washington in 1774 and 1775 by Valentine Crawford, who resided on Jacobs Creek, and acted as general agent in charge of Washington's lands and affairs of improvement in this region. An extract from one of those letters is given below, via. : "JACOBS CREEK, July 27, 1774. "DEAR COLONEL,-On Sunday evening or Monday morning, William Orr, one of the most orderly men I thought I had, ran away, and has taken a horse and other things. I have sent you an advertisement of him. I am convinced he will make for some ship in Potomac River. I have sent two men after him, and furnished them with horses and money. I have also written to my brother, Richard Stevenson [a half-brother of Crawford's], in Berkeley, and James McCormick to escort the men I sent, and to forward this letter and advertisement to you. . . . I have sold all the men but two, and I believe I should have sold them but the man who is run away hid a very sore foot, which was cut with an axe and was not long well, and John Smith was not well of the old disorder he had when he left your house. I sold Peter Miller and John Wood to one Mr. Edward Cook for £45, the money to be applied to the use of building your mill. I sold Thomas McPherson and his wife and James Lowe to Maj. John McCullooh and Jones Ennis for £65, payable in six months from the date of sale. To my brother I sold William Luke, Thomas White, and the boy, John Knight. He is either to pay you for them or he loges them in case you can prosecute your designs down the river [the opening of a plantation on the Virginia side of the Ohio, between Wheeling and the Little Kanawha]. I took John Smith and William Orr on the same terms ; so that, in justice, I am accountable to you for the man if he is never got. I should have sold the whole of the servants, agreeable to your letter, if I could have got cash or good pay, but the confusion of the times put it out of my power.. . . I only went down to Fort Pitt a day or two, and two of my own servants and two militiamen ran away. I followed them and caught them all down at Bedford, and brought them back. While I was gone two of your men, John Wood and Peter Miller, stole a quantity of bacon and bread, and were to have started that very night I got home, but a man of mine discovered their design. I sold them immediately, and would have sold the whole if I could, or delivered them to Mr. Simpson, but be would not be concerned with them at any rate." The following is a copy of the advertisement referred to : "FIVE POUNDS REWARD. "Run away from the subscriber, living on Jacobs Creek, near Stewart's Crossing, in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, on Sunday night, the 24th instant, a convict servant man named William Orr, the property of Col. George Washington. Be is a well-made man, about five feet ten inches high, and about twenty-four years of age. He was born in Scotland, and speaks that dialect pretty much. He is of a red complexion and very full-faced, with short, sandy-colored hair, and very remarkable thumbs, they both being crooked. He had on and took with him an old felt hat bound with black binding, ono white cotton coat and jacket with black horn buttons, one old brown jacket, one pair of snuff-colored breeches, one pair of trowsers made in sailor's fashion, and they are made of sail-duck, and have not been washed, a pair of red leggins, and shoes tied with strings, two Osnaberg shirts and one Holland shirt marked V. C.,' which he stole, and a blanket. " He stole likewise a black horse, about fourteen hands high, branded on the near shoulder and buttock ‘R. W.,’ and shod before. He had neither bridle nor saddle that we know of. I expect be will make to some seaport town, as he has been much used to the seas. Whoever takes up said servant and secures him, so that he and horse may be had again, shall receive the above reward, or three pounds for the man alone and reasonable charges if brought home paid by me.

[See Chapter XVI.] THE HANNASTOWN MEETING OF 1775. The following is transcribed from the " American Archives," fourth series, volume H. page 615: “MEETING OF THE INHABITANTS OE WESTMORELAND, PENNSYLVANIA. “At a general meeting of the inhabitants of the County of Westmoreland, held at Hanna's Totes the 16th of May, 1775, for taking into consideration the very alarming situation of this country, occasioned by the dispute with Great Britain, "Resolved unanimously, That the Parliament of Great Britain, by several late Acts, have declared the inhabitants of the Massachusetts Bay to be in rebellion, and the Ministry, by endeavoring to enforce those Acts, have attempted to reduce the said inhabitants to a more wretched state of slavery than ever before existed in any state or country. Not content with violating their constitutional and chartered privileges, they would strip them of the rights of humanity, exposing lives to the wanton and unpunishable sport of licentious soldiery, and depriving them of the very means of subsistence. "Resolved unanimously, That there is no reason to doubt but the same system of tyranny and oppression will (should it meet with success in the Massachusetts Bay) be extended to every other part of America : it is, therefore, become the indispensable duty of every American, of every man who has any publick virtue or love of his Country, or any bowels for posterity, by every means which God has put in his power, to resist and oppose the execution of it; that for us, we will be ready to oppose it with our lives and fortunes. And the better to enable us to accomplish it, we will immediately form ourselves into a military body, to consist of Companies to be made up out of the several Townships under the following Association, which is declared to be the Association of Westmoreland county: " Possessed with the most unshaken loyalty and fidelity to His Majesty King George the Third, whom we acknowledge to Be our lawful and rightful King, and who we wish may long be the beloved Sovereign of a free and happy people throughout the whole British Empire; we declare to the world, that we do not mean by this Association to deviate from that loyalty which we bold it our bounden duty to observe; but, animated with the love of liberty, it is no less our duty to maintain and defend our just rights (which, with sorrow, we have seen of late wantonly violated in many instances by a wicked Ministry and a corrupted Parliament) and transmit them entire to our posterity, for which purpose we do agree and associate together: "1st. To arm and form ourselves into a Regiment or Regiments, and choose officers to command us in such proportion as shall be thought necessary. "2d. We will, with alacrity, endeavor to make ourselves masters of the manual exercise, and such evolutions as shall be necessary to enable us to act in a body with concert; and to that end we will meet at such times and places as shall be appointed either for the Companies or the Regiment, by the officers commanding each when chosen. "3d. That should our Country be invaded by a foreign enemy, or should Troops be sent from Great Britain to enforce the late arbitrary Acts of its Parliament, we will cheerfully submit to a military discipline, and to the utmost of our power resist and oppose them, or either of them, and will coincide with any plan that may be formed for the defense of America in general, or Pennsylvania in particular. "4th. That we du not wish or desire any innovation, but only that things may be restored to, and go on in the same way as before the em of the Stamp Act, when Boston grew great and America was happy. As a proof of this disposition, we will 'quietly submit to the laws by which APPENDICES - 451 we have been accustomed to be governed before that period, and will, in our several or associate capacities, be ready when called on to assist the civil magistrate in carrying the same into execution. "5th. That when the British Parliament shall have repealed their late obnoxious Statutes, and shall recede from their claim to tax us, and make !awe for us in every instance, or when some general plan of union or reconciliation has been formed and accepted by America, this, our association, shall be dissolved ; but till then it shall remain in full force ; and to the observation of it we bind ourselves by everything dear and sacred amongst men. "No licensed murder! no famine introduced by law! "Resolved, That on Wednesday, the 24th instant, the township meet to accede to the said Association and choose their officers." THE PITTSBURGH MEETING OF 1775. AUGUSTA. COUNTY (VIRGINIA) COMMITTEE. "At a meeting of the inhabitants of that part of Augusta County that lies on the west side of the Laurel Hill, at Pittsburgh, the 16th day of May, 1775, the following gentlemen were chosen a committee for the said district, viz.: George Croghan, John Campbell, Edward Ward, Thomas Smallman, John Cannon, John McCullough, William Gee, George Valandigham, John Gibson, Dorsey Penticost, Edward Cook, William Crawford, Devereux Smith, John Anderson, David Rodgers, Jacob Vanmetre, Henry Enoch, James Ennis, George Willson, William Vance, David Shepherd, William Elliot, Richmond Willis, Samuel Sample, John Ormsby, Richard McMaher, John Neville, and John Swearingen. "The foregoing gentlemen met in committee, and resolved that John Campbell, John Ormsby, Edward Ward, Thomas Smallman, Samuel Sample, John Anderson, and Devereux Smith, or any four of them, be a Standing Committee, and have full power to meet at such times as they shall judge necessary, and in case of any emergency, to call the committee of this district together, and shall be vested with the same power and authority as the other standing committee and committees of correspondence are in the other counties within this colony. "Resolved unanimously, That the cordial and most grateful thanks of this committee are a tribute due to John Hartle, Esquire, our worthy representative in the late Colonial Convention held at Richmond, for his faithful discharge of that important trust reposed in him ; and to John Neville, Require, our worthy delegate, whom nothing but sickness prevented from representing us in that respectable assembly. "Resolved unanimously, That this committee have the highest sense of the spirited behavior of their brethren in New England, and do most cordially approve of their opposing the invaders of American rights and privileges to the utmost extreme, and that each member of this committee, respectively, will animate and encourage their neighborhood to follow the brave example. "The imminent danger that threatens America in general, from ministerial and parliamentary denunciations of our ruin, and is now carrying into execution by open acts of unprovoked hostilities in our sister colony of Massachusetts, as well as the danger to be apprehended to this colony in particular from a domestic enemy, said to be prompted by the wicked minions of power to execute our ruin, added to the menaces of an Indian war, likewise said to be in contemplation, thereby think to engage our attention, and divert it from that still more interesting object of liberty and freedom, that deeply and with so much justice bath called forth the attention of all America, for the prevention of all or any of those impending evils, it is "Resolved, That the recommendation of the Richmond Convention, of the 20th of last March, relative to the embodying, arming, and disciplining the militia, be immediately carded into execution with the greatest diligence in this country, by the officers appointed for that end; and that the recommendation of the said Convention to the several committees of this colony, to collect from their constituents, in such manner as shall be most agreeable to them, so much money as shall be sufficient to purchase half a pound of gunpowder and one pound of lead, flints, and cartridge paper for every tithable person in their county, be likewise carried into execution. "This committee, therefore, out of the deepest sense of the expediency of this measure, most earnestly entreat that every member of this committee do collect from each tithable person in their several districts the sums of two shillings and six pence, which we deem no more than sufficent for the above purpose, and give proper receipts to all such as pay the same into their hands, and the sum so collected to be paid into the hands of Mr. John Campbell, who is to give proper security to this committee or their successors, for the due and faithful application of the money so deposited with him for the above purpose, by or with the advice of this committee, or their successors; and this committee, as your representatives; and who are most ardently laboring for your preserve. tion, call on you, our constituents, our friends, brethren, and fellow-sufferers, in the name of God, of everything you hold sacred or valuable, for the sake of your wives, children, and unborn generations, that you will, every one of you, in your several stations, to the utmost of your power, assist in levying such sum, by not only paying yourselves but by assisting those who are not in a condition at present to do so. We heartily lament the case of all such as have not this sum at command in this day of necessity ; to all such we recommend to tender security to such as Providence has enabled to lend them so much ; and this committee do pledge their faith and fortunes to you, their constituents, that we shall, without fee or reward, use our best endeavors to procure, with the money so collected, the ammunition our present exigencies have made so exceedingly necessary. "As this committee has reason to believe there is a quantity of ammunition destined for this place for the purpose of government, and as this country on the west side pf the Laurel Hill, is greatly distressed for want of ammunition, and deprived of the means of procuring it, by reason of its situation, as easy as the lower counties of this colony, they do earnestly request the committees of Frederick, Augusta, and Hampshire, that they will not suffer the ammunition to peas through their counties for the purpose of government, but will secure it for the use of this destitute country, and immediately inform this committee of their having done so. "Resolved, That this committee do approve of the resolution of the committee of the other part of the county, relative to the cultivating a friendship with the Indians, and if any person shall be so depraved as to take the life of any Indian that may come to us in a friendly manner, we will, as one man, use our utmost endeavors to bring such offender to condign punishment " Ordered, That the standing committee be directed to secure such arms and ammunition as are not employed in actual service or private property, and that they get the same repaired and deliver them to such captains of Independent Companies as may make application for the same, and take such captain's receipt for the arms so delivered. " Resolved, That the sum of fifteen pounds, current money, be raised by subscription, and that the same be transmitted to Robert Carter Nicholas, Esq., for the use of the deputies sent from this colony to the general Congress. Which sum of money was immediately paid by the committee then present."—Craig's History of Pittsburgh. APPENDIX " C." [See Chapter XVII.) We give herewith a list of the names of those taking the foregoing oath, and returned by Hugh Martin, Esq. Martin was a substantial citizen in his day, was early appointed one of the county justices, and was by reappointment a justice of the peace nearly all his life. Among the county records his name is met with often. He was one of the commissioners designated by the Assembly to locate the county seat, when the report wale made in favor of Greensburg. He resided on the Sewickley. This list was found among others in the department buildings at Harrisburg, when the compilers of the new series of the Pennsylvania Archives were ransacking for material, and thus, as we understand, at the desire of a Westmorelander, at the time there, was inserted among others of a similar kind to be found in the third volume of that series.

Sir,—This council is applied to by the people of the county of Westmoreland, in this Commonwealth, with the most alarming complaints of Indian depredations. The letter, of which the inclosed is a copy, will give you some idea of their present situation. We are further informed by verbal accounts that an extent of sixty miles has been evacuated to the savaged, full of stock, corn, hogs, and poultry; that they have attacked Palmer's fort, about seven miles distant from Fort Ligonier, without success ; and, from the information of White Eyes and other circumstances, it is feared Fort Ligonier has by this time been attacked. There is likewise reason, to fear the ravages will extend to Bedford and along the frontier. We shall order out the militia of Bedford County, and take such other steps as may be immediately necessary for the relief of those settlements, but we find they are greatly deficient in the articles of arms, and especially ammunition and flints. In Fort Ligonier, when our informants left it, there was not more than forty pounds of powder and fifteen pounds of lead; flints are sold at a dollar a piece. We must beg the assistance of Congress in these articles. Arms we dare hardly ask, but ammunition and flints we hope may be supplied by Congress both to Westmoreland and Bedford ; and we must also entreat the attention of Congress to the general defense of the frontier. We know not the situation of Gen. Hand, his forces, or his views; but we have reserved the militia of Bedford and Westmoreland for the purpose of co-operating with him in those parts of the States and the neighbor. hood. Mr. Thomas Galbraith will call on you in a few days on hie way to Ligonier, the supplies should be furnished to him from Carlisle, to be carried from thence on pack-hones. He will explain more at large their situation, and it might not be amiss to communicate to him what may be expected from Gen. Hand, as well as what Congress shall direct.—Archives, F. S., vi. 3. ARCHIBALD LOCHRY TO PRESIDENT WHARTON, 1777. WESTMORELAND, ye 6th Decem., 1777. HONNORED SIR,—I wrote to your Excellency by Coll. Shields, giving a State of the Ravages Committed by the Indians on the Inhabitants of this County ; they have still Continued to Destroy and Burn Houses, Barns, and Grain, as you will see more Particular in a Patation from the People which he Declared, as you may see His Letter of the 18th October; if our Measures Had not been adopted, I am very certain there would not been Many Persons on the North Side the Greats Roads now [i.e., he means the Forbes or Hannestown road], if there Is not Stors APPENDICES - 463 Laide in this Winter. In Spring they must undoubtedly Leave the Countery; they Have no Salt to Lay Up Meat, of which there is a greate Plenty, their grain is all Bured & Destroyd on the North of Cunnemoch ; if there is No Store of Provision for Next summer, and the People Modred from Getting Spring Crops the Countery it undoubtedly Broke up. The Plan we Have adopted Has Been Put in Execution at the Expense of a few Individuals, which cant Be Long Continued without supported by the Publick. I Have Sent five Indian Scalps taken by One of our Scouting Party, Commanded by Coll. Barr, Coll. Perry, Coll. Smith, & Capt.

It is not understood that the Expense of supplying the Militia with provisions, while they are engaged in the service of the United States, is to fall on this SUN in particular, Yet Council desirous of doing everything in their power have sent you, by Colonel John Proctor, the sum of five hundred pounds, to purchase provisions with. It is expected that the provisions be purchased on the lowest terms and at first hands. I am, sir, your very humble servant, THOMAS WHARTON, JUNR., Prot —Archies, F. 8., vol vi. 143. ARCHIBALD LOCHRY TO PRESIDENT WHARTON. Westmoreland, May 13, 1778. HIBRD SIR,—Agreeable to your Excellencies Instructions I do hereby snd you a Just and True Return of the Publick Arms in our county which I have in my care. 75 stand I purchased myself ; 27 Stand I received of the Militia that went to the Jersey from this County In the year 1777; 72 Stand I re. calved by Coll John Shields, and Col. Hayes Informs me of 80 Stand being on the Way, not yet come to Hand, which is in all 254 Stand ; but when we Reduce 12 Stand that we lost by the Enemy, and 3 Carried away by Deserters, there remain 239 stand. There is Considerable number of Old English Muskets, which Genl St. Clair formerly had in his care, belonging to this State, and Distributed in this County ; they are all Unfit for service and hard to be Collected, as the Person that Possesseth them is under Obligation by Bond to Return them to Genl Sinkler [St. Clair?]. The Arms or the most of them may be Repaired fit for Garrisons. My Notice is short, the Arms Private Property I cannot assert, tho' they are Exceeding Scarce, Yet, Notwithstanding I can Purchase some from the Poor, distressed by the Enemy, but not without cash. On the 28th Aprile the Indians came into the Settlement at and about Wallace's fort, Attacted 20 of our men which was Reconnoitering the woods, and killed 9 of our Men, and wounded Capt. Hopkins and we lost 9 guns. In short, I am sorry to inform you that the Frontiers of this County is more Distressed by Reason of this Last Scrimmage than they ever were before, as by appearance there was a larger Body of the Enemy than ever before appeared at once, and with much more Vigour; the Great Road is now the frontier, anJ being dissapointed in their Expectations of an Early Campaign into the Indian Country, I am Sorry to Inform you that I doubt a General Evacuation of the Posts on the frontiers (fort Pitt only Excepted), on the first or next appearance or Attact of such a body of the Enemy. I am also to Inform you that flues Laid in this County on Delinquents (tho' strict measures ere used) I have on Received £60, and all the Publick money I have ever Received I have paid for Guns, Substitutes, and other Publick Uses, as will appear per acc't at Settlement, and in the Interim I beg leave to subscribe myself, etc. A. LOCHRY. —Archives, F. S., vi. 495. Gen. McIntosh, in a letter to Col. Lochry, dates Fort Pitt. Jan. 29, 1779, says, " I am Just informed that Capt. Clark, of the Eighth Penn. Sylvania Regiment, who was sent to cdmmand an escort to Fort Laurens, as be was returning with sergeant and fourteen men, three miles this aide of that fort, was attacked by Simon Girty and a party of Mingoes, who killed two of our men, wounded four, and took one prisoner. I am also informed that a large party of the same people are set off to strike the inhabitants about Ligonier and Black Leg [Black Lick] Creek, and send you this express to inform you of it that you may acquaint the neighborhood, and be upon your guard."—Archives, F. 8., vii. 173. Capt. Joseph Erwin, in a communication to President Reed, dated at Hannastown, July 20, 1779, says, " In obedience to the orders of the Council, with infinite pains and difficulty I have enlisted forty-five men for the service of our frontiers, and have them now at the place of their destination and endeavouring to be serviceable to the distressed inhabitants., "As an officer in the service of our State, I should be guilty of the highest neglect were-I not to inform Council of the hardships I have encountered, and I fear without the assistance of Council it will be no hard task to tell what my poor men are to suffer. "Destitute of the resources of the public stores, I have now these men on your frontiers totally destitute of blankets, shoes, and every necessary cloathing I Guns we have, but those we have are the refuge [refuse ?] of the military store at Fort Pitt ; and to sum up the whole, we are nearly destitute of every necessary." In a postscript he adds that his subaltern officers who bad been first appointed for that service had declined their appointments, and that Col. Lochry, agreeable to former instructions, had nominated John Jameson first lieutenant and Henry Armstrong second lieutenant. Col. Lochry, in a letter to President Reed, dated Hannastown, July 20, 1779, says, "All the arms we had have been constantly in actual service, and by militia deserters and emigrants, when we lost a stand of arms we lost the man. What few arms we have still left are so out of repair that they are almost noisier, and it is out of my power to get them repaired in this quarter. " The two companies raised by Genl. McIntosh's orders are nearly compleated and are now at Kittanning or scouting in that neighbourhood; but I am sorry to inform you that times will shortly expire, so that it will be necessary for Council to give directions concerning them." COL. JOHN PROCTOR TO PRESIDENT WHARTON. WISTMORELAND COUNTY, Aprr. ye 26, 1778. HOUNORED SIR : I an in greait need of a larg sum of Cash. I hope you will send me by the Bairar, Mr. George Hendry, foure thousand Pounds if Posable ; he is a safe Hand, and what Ever sum you send me by him I will be answerable for. I would a ben Down myself, but thought it unsafe to have Home at this time. Sir, I am able to inform you that Capt. Alexander McKee with sevin other Vilone is gon to the Indians, and since there is a sergt. and twenty od men gon from Pittsburgh of the Soldiers. What may be the fate of this County God only knowes, but at Prisent it wears a most Dismal aspect. I am, sir, etc., JOHN PROCTOR. —Archives, F. S., vol. vi. 445. In an answer to this letter (ibid. 458), May 2, 1778, the Council sent £3500, which they hoped was sufficient to pay off the arrearages. THOMAS SCOTT TO T. MATLACK, SECRETARY TO THE COUNCIL, PHILADELPHIA. WESTMORELAND, Aug. 1, 1778 . . . . The Indians have made several breaches on the inhabitants of late in different parts of this country. Capt. Miller, of the 8th Penna. Regt. with a party of nine men, chiefly Continental soldiers, were Bringing grain from the Neighborhood to a Fort called fort Hand, about 14 miles north of Hennas Town, on the seventh of last month, and on their return were surprised by a party of Indians, who lay in wait for them, and killed the Capt. & seven others.—Archives, F. S., vi. 673. PRESIDENT REED TO BOARD OF WAR, 1779. Inclosed we send you a copy of a Letter forwarded to us by the Lieutenant of Westmoreland County, with the information that in Pursuance thereof two companies of 60 men each are nearly complete, & t' serve for 6 months, with a Request that the Appointments of the Officers may be confirmed & the Men put under the same Footing as other temporary Troops are. We have delayed any Answer because we were not acquainted with Genl. McIntosh's powers. But as the Frontiers are in a 464 - HISTORY OF WESTMORELAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA. most deplorable Condition & we find It very difficult to give them effectivs Assistance by Militia, we have concluded to support & Countenance the measure. And we are induced thereto more strongly as his excell Gen. Washington has made a Requisition of 600 militia to co-operate with the troops on the proposed Expedition. We find It impracticable to comply with this Demand in any season & the Period of 2 mouths being too short for real service have encouraged these temporary Inlistments as being more permanent & producing better Troops. We find that including the 6 Companies already ordered by Congress, there will be about 700 men raised on this Plan in Westmoreland and Northumberland, and probably Bedford may follow the Example ; if so they will make up 800 at least.—Pa. Archives, vii. 404. APPENDIX " P." [See Chap. XXIV.] (1.) To show the estimation In which Brady was held by Gen. (then colonel) Brodhead we give a few extracts from his correspondence, found among the Pennsylvania Archives: COL. D. BRODHEAD TO PRESIDENT REED, 1780. Capt. Brady with five men and two Delaware Indians set out for Sandusky with view to bring off British prisoner or some Indian scalpel. One of his Indians left him and returned to this place sick or cowardly. He has been out ten days, and in as many more I expect him back again, if he is fortunate. I beg leave to recommend Capt. Brady to the notice of the Hon. Ex. Council as an excellent officer, and I sincerely wish he may not leave the service for want of the promotion he has merited. SAME TO SAME. FORT PITT, June 30, 1780. Capt.-Lieut. Brady has just returned from Sandusky. He took prisoners two young squaws within a mile of their principal village. One of them effected her escape after six days march, the other he brought to Cuscusky, where he met seven warriors, who had taken a woman and child off Chartiers Creek. He fired at the captain and killed him, and has brought In the woman and the Indian's scalp, but the squaw made her escape at the same time. When Capt. Brady fired at the Indian he had only three men with him, and but two rounds of powder. He was out 32 days, 6 of which he was quite destitute of provisions of any kind, but he has brought bit party safe to his place. THE TRIAL OF CAPT. BRADY. (2.) On Monday last, the 20th of this month (May, 1793), a Court of Oyer and Terminer and Gaol Delivery, and of Nisi Prins, for the county of Allegheny was held at this place (Pittsburgh) by the chief justice and Judge Yeates. The only criminal business that came before the judges was the trial of Capt. Samuel Brady, who, when the judge, were last here, had been indicted for murder, in killing certain Indians, near the mouth of Beaver Creek, in the spring of the year 1791. It was proved to the satisfaction of the court that, notwithstanding the treatise of Fort Stanwix, McIntosh, Muskingum, end Miami, which established peace between the Indians and the people of the United States, and obliged the Indians to surrender all who should commit any murder on our frontiers, certain banditti of them had from time to time infested the western frontier, stolen hones, taken boats, and murdered our citizens ; that recently, before the killing of the Indians, for which Brody was now tried, several people from Ohio County, particularly Boggs, Paul Riley's family; and Mrs. Vanbuskirke, had been put to death ; that to pursue the Indians who had committed these murders, and to recover some property stolen, a party of volunteers from Ohio County, of which Brady was one, crossed the Ohio, and led by the trail of the Indians towards the place where the killing happened, tired and killed those for whose death Brady Was tried. It was proved by the oath of Keyashuta, an Indian chief, that the Delawares had long before let go the chain, that they, the Shawanese, Chippewas, Ottawas, Wyandots, and some renegade Mingoes, were in the battle against Gen. Harmer, 1790. It was also proved that the attack and firing of Capt. Kirkwood's house was by Delawares, that some of the instances of murder and rapine above mentioned were by Delawares, that the persons killed wore Delawares and had in their possession some of the property just before taken from Ohio County, manifested an intention of proceeding to commit other murders on our citizens, and when fired on by those who attacked them, and whom they had just discovered, were in the act of suezing their guns; and, moreover, the relation of John Hamilton, a trader on the spot, satisfied the court of the malignant and hostile tamper of those very Indians. The chief justice, in a charge distinguished not less by learning than humanity, explained the laws of war and the right of putting enemies to death, urged the impropriety of killing those who might with safety be taken prisoners, and the baseness of killing women, lamented that any acts of outrage by our citizens should occasion retaliation on themselves; but stating that, in his opinion, the Indians killed were hostile, directed, if the jury concurred in his opinion, of which he had no doubt, they should acquit the prisoner without leaving the bar. The jury did so, and the court ordered Capt. Brady to be discharged on payment of fees.—Letter dated Pittsburgh, 25th May, 1793. In relation to the testimony of Guyasutha, or Kyashuta, in this case the late James Ross, Esq., who was Brady's counsel, told characteristic story. The testimony of that Indian was so very strong in favor of the defendant that even his counsel was abashed. After the trial was over he spoke to Guyasutha, and rather expressed his surprise at the decided tone of his testimony, upon which the chief clapped his hand upon his breast and exclaimed, " Am I not the friend of Brady ?. It seems obvious that he considered himself as much bound to swear for his friend as he would be to fight in his defense. APPENDIX " Q." [See Chapter XL.] (1.)

(3.) DOCUMENTS RELATING TO THE WAR OF EIGHTEEN-TWELVE. HARRISBURG, Sept. 5, 1812. Ebenezer Danny, Esq., Contractor, Pittsburgh : Sir,---The President of the United States having required an additional detachment of 2000 men from the State of Pennsylvania to those already ordered into service, the Governor has issued general orders this day in compliance with the said requisition. The detachment will be composed of the militia from the counties of Washington, Greene, Somerset, Bedford, Westmoreland, Fayette, Allegheny, Armstrong, Indiana, and Cambria. You are requested to make arrangements for supplying the troops with rations on their march from the counties west of the Allegheny to the place of rendezvous, which will be at Pittsburgh, on the 2d day of October next. You will be informed by the proper officers of the time and place from whence the detachment will commence their march to the place of rendezvous. Very Respectfully, sir, your obed't sari, N. B. BOILEAU. P. S.-The classes ordered to march in the above detachment amount to 2273. JAMES TRIMBLE TO GEORGE ARMSTRONG. HARRISBURG, Sept. 29, 1812. To GEORGE ARMSTRONG, Req., Inspector of the First Brigade, 13th Division, Penna. Militia SIR-Your return of the 22d inst. came duly to hand, and for the officers therein mentioned I transmit commissions, except for John Burn, lieutenant of the Third Company of the Sixty-third Regiment, who has been commissioned some time since for the same office. As to Captain McCullough's company, I can only say that it never was returned into this office. You will therefore see the propriety of transmitting a return of his election to this department as early as possible. I wrote to you on the 10th of June last relative to a company of riflemen, commanded by John Morrow, attached to the Second Battalion of the Nineteenth Regiment, requesting you to certify that there are thirty men in complete uniform In his company, which has not yet been received. The above information is absolutely necessary before commissions can be issued for either of the aforesaid companies. • • • • JAMES TRIMBLE. GENERAL ORDERS (MILITIA). HARRISBURG, March 31, 1813. The following instructions are given relative to the detachment of Pennsylvania militia to rendezvous at Erie, on Lake Erie, to the adjutant-general, his deputy, and the Brigade Inspectors of the Eleventh, Twelfth, and " Thirteenth" divisions of the Pennsylvania militia. The detachment shall be organized and officered by the adjutant-general, or by his deputy, as follows, viz.: One Colonel Commandant (already appointed), the marching lieutenant-colonel, and marching major of the First Brigade of the Thirteenth division. . . . etc. From the Eleventh division are to be drafted 419, from the Twelfth division 100, and from the " Thirteenth" division 490 men, including officers. The Brigade Inspectors respectively will order captains designated by law to march, each of them with one hundred men, including officers, as aforesaid. The marching-lieutenant and two supernumerary lieutenants, to serve one as second, the other third lieutenant, who are to draw for rank at the place of rendezvous, and the marching ensign. As it is of the utmost Importance that some force be stationed at Erie as early se circumstances will permit, and at all events on the 20th day of April next, the companies as soon as formed will march, as directed by the Secretary at War, by the most direct route to Erie, the place of rendezvous JOHN KIRKPATRICK TO NATHANIEL B. BOILEAU. (Secretary of the Commonwealth) SALEM. MILLS, WESTMORELAND COUNTY, Feb. 10, 1815. SIR: I inclose you sundry election returns which have not been heretofore transmitted: First, Capt. Abraham May ; the first election sst aside and May elocted, which I approve. Second and third, the election returns of Capt. Samuel McColough and Capt. William Reynolds; both returns are approved by me. Both companies marched on the late all of the commander-in-chief. Fourth, Capt. Anthony Blackburn. His company is said to be full, which I have also approved. Fifth, an election return for the Congruity Rifle Company, which I do not approve as yet. The circumstances are briefly as follows: Part of this company had served a tour of duty at Fort Meigs, and returned, say twenty. The company immediately increased, on its return, to its present number. As inspector, I applied to them to march under the Governor's general order, which they refused, alleging that some of them had served; the others that they could not be called unless they all went, of course, none would go. They are, however, exceedingly anxious to be commissioned. I have not, under these circumstances, approved their return as yet, but leave the whole to the discretion of the Governor Sixth, Capt. Samuel Hunter's election return I do not as yet approve, alleging It is not more than half-full. I have forwarded his return, which can lay over until it is ascertained whether he gets his number or not. Seventh and Eighth, I also inclose two return, for troops of horse, one for Capt. John C. Plunrer, the other Humphrey Fullerton, captain. These returns of their election are submitted to the Governor. My reason for this is that the Governor seemed to disapprove of cavalry in his message to the Legislature at the opening of the present session. Of course, the whole is submitted to him. Capt. William McCormick's return, as captain of the class militia, was forwarded in my former returns, but has been overlooked at your office. His commission is not come to hand. I hope you will forward it with the others that are yet to come. I have received and distributed all the commissions for the field and company officers, as far as they have made returns of their companies to me, except Capt. William McCormick's alone, not forwarded from your office as stated above. Accompanying this you will receive a return of all the militia of thE brigade. They exceed the former returns, as received from Mr. Armstrong, four hundred and twelve. men. A doubt, however, remains in 466 - HISTORY OF WESTMORELAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA. my mind whether some inaccuracies may not have taken place in forming the different rifle companies that were early formed. . . . Those companies that marched in November last were Capts. Wilson, Knott, Irvin Russell, Samuel McCullough, and William Reynolds. Those ready and Anthony Blackburn . . . I would be much gratified if those who did march would receive their pay. Many of them were poor. They laid out something more than they could well spare to equip themselves, expecting to be out all winter, and receive their pay, in order to discharge small debts. Would it be in the power of the Governor to pay them one month? I think with this they would be satisfied. . . . I am persuaded their services would be much easier commanded in future if something like what I have suggested should take place.

Green (?) [Green Clay], and we were ordered out to cover their entry into the garrison, which was effected with some loos to the Kentucky troops. The same day the United States volunteers and several other companies of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Regiments made a general- sortie under the command of Col. John Miller, which resulted in the capture of about forty-two of the enemy's regiments [regulars ?], and the routing of their Indian allies, with a considerable loss of American troops in killed and wounded. The Pittsburgh Blues has two men killed : James Newman and Mr. Richardson ; five wounded: Willock, Ross, Williams, Dobbins, and Wahrendorff. The attack was made on the enemy's battery on the opposite side of the river at the same time by Gen. Clay's Kentucky militia, commanded by Capt. Dudley, which terminated in a complete routing and capturing of that detachment and death of the commanding officer. The enemy was quiet; and on the 10th the siege was declared to be raised.—May 11, Maj. Ball's squadron moved off, and Gen. Harrison left for the settlement." As a curious reminiscence of this war we give the postscript toe letter written by the Rev. William Swan, then pastor of Long Run, to Capt Markle, Nov. 30, 1812. The letter, together with an open advice to the members of the company from Mr. Swan, who was personally acquainted with most of the company, is a very patriotic and worthy contribution: " P.S.—Capt. Markle will please inform Lieut. Fullerton and the other unmarried gentlemen of the troop that the wives of those who are married are not alone pleased with and proud of the patriotic conduct of their husbands, but that the young ladies so admire the manly fortitude and patriotic spirit which they have manifested that some of them have expressed a determination to wait for husbands until their return; and that they would choose them for husband, should they return with but one eye and arm, in preference to those who, either disaffected towards or unconcerned about the common cause, choose rather to abide among the sheepfolds and hear the bleating, of the flocks, as more safe and agreeable than the sound of trumpets and the clangor of arms on the field of Mars.
