CORRESPONDENCE OF DISTINGUISHED OFFICERS OF THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR, COMMENCING IN 1775; SHOWING THE DIFFERENT LOCATIONS AND MOVEMENTS OF THE ARMY, AND THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE COUNTRY IN 1780. TICONDEROGA, August 19, 1775. SIR-I request you will cause the three companies of New Hampshire Rangers under your command to march with all dispatch to the mouth of Onion River, taking care to give the General such timely notice as may enable him to furnish them with provisions and boats, and such further orders as he may judge expedient. I am, sir, your most humble servant, RICHARD MONTGOMERY, Brig'r Gen'l. Col. BEDEL, Of the New Hampshire forces. } TICONDEROGA, August 31, 1775. SIR:-This will be delivered you by an officer of Col. Hinman's regiment, together with a boat, which I hope will be sufficient to carry you and his parties to Isle-aux-Noix, where you will join me without delay. Should the boat be insufficient to carry all the men, you will try to procure craft there; and if none are to be had, you will send a few men to this place to the commanding officer, acquainting him with what number of men may be left, that he may dispatch boats to you for their transportation. I am, sir, your humble servant, PH. SCHUYLER. Col. BEDEL, Onion River. TICONDEROGA, Sept. 16, 1775. SIR-I received yours of the 14th, informing me of your arrival at the Onion River with a number of men; also of the insufficiency of the boats, and your request for more from this place. I am obliged to inform you that it is not in my power at present to send them, as the whole of the boats went on from thence this day. Notwithstanding I do all in my power to furnish boats to forward the men as they come to hand, there are now about five or six companies lying here and a number at Fort George. How the General expects me to forward the troops I know not. I should think best to send down to the army for boats, and send some craft for provisions; otherwise I think the army must retreat for want, unless we send provisions instead of men. I am, sir, your obedient servant, Col. BEDEL, at Onion, or elsewhere, on Lake Champlain. } BENJAMIN HINMAN. CAMP NEAR ST. JOHNS, Sept. 19, 1775. SIR-I have this instant received yours. The party is now preparing to carry you some flour and intrenching tools. Young troops are not so expeditious as could be wished. I will send the money by the commanding officer. Somebody must be employed to act as commissary to purchase provisions. As far as my money will go, they shall be paid directly. If the Paymaster does not join us before that happens, they must give us credit, for I have but little. Have you a party at La Prairie ? In haste, your most obedient servant, RICHARD MONTGOMERY, Brig'r Gen'l. Col. BEDEL, northward of St. Johns. |
