1 st I was born in the town of Goshen, County of Orange and State of New York, on the 10 th October 1755. About the first December 1775, was called out in Captain John Little's Company in Colonel Ellison's Regiment, and was marched to the Hudson River and was on guard about ten days and was then marched down to Tappan and there was doing duty about three weeks and after this was commanded by Major John Gardner and continued on duty about forty days. 2 d In the year 1776, the month not remembered, it was warm weather, I was marched to Fort Montgomery and from thence to Fort Clinton and there laboured at the public works under Lieutenant Stewart in Colonel Ellison's Regiment. While there saw General James Clinton and his Brother George Clinton and knew them well. I saw General Washington when he went to Boston; Served one month this tour. 3 d On or before the twelfth day of December in the same year, was called out in Captain Little's Company and joined the Regiment at Goshen under Colonel Ellison and then marched to the New City, and remained there nine or ten days, then marched to Gloucester then moved back to Tappan and there encamped.

for some time and then moved back towards the Gap of the mountain and kept guard there about a month, Colonel Ellison then divided the Regiment and took part of it home, deponent remained and done duty more than a month when Lieutenant Marvin drew thirty men, which deponent was one to go out on a scouting party. Went into Jersey, and returned to the Hudson and then went to Piamus, and after two months service was discharged and went home.
4 th On or about the first April 1777 was again called out in Captain Little's Company, Colonel Ellison's Regiment and ordered to Naick to join Captain Gardner to guard the frontier out one month.
5 th In May following called out again in Captain Little's Company to go to De Witt's Fort on the Neversink River and to Dickens Fort on the Delaware and done duty on this Station until his Father came and took his place and he served three months. Major Newkirk commanded at De Witt's Fort. The Indians made several attempts to take the Fort. Lieutenant Stewart was killed.
6 th After this was frequently ordered out on alarms but no specific duty. Until the summer of 1781 when he was called out in Captain Sweeney's Company and done duty at the Tappan landing. Was there when the news of Cornwallis's Capture was announced and there done duty for two and a half months.
In the year 1777 at a General Review was wounded by the kick of a horse, while on duty, the wound in the shin of his left leg, and by which he is still disabled.
