WhO Is Gen. John Brooks /?

MEssRs. EDITORS,
Nh you grant the favour to a citizen OF
massachusetts, who served in the army of the
United States from the commencement to the
iefminaticn of the contest which resulted in
the acknon led ,ment of our freedom and ma
llonai Independence, TO Communicate few
iae's' IN addition to what has already appear.
ed' IN answer to the question, Who is General
BROOKS, that is nominated in the papers as a
candidate Tor the office Ex-Governor, and what
KIND a man he is
NV hrst acquaintance with this patriot and
advocate tor liberty was sn the ever memora
rable l7ih of June, i775, on Bunker's-hill. and
though he was then only twenty three years
oil age, he was Major of the regiment TO
which belonged and fought for his country
IN that severe and bloody battle in a most
brave and soldierlike manner. In fact he
was tue hero Of the regiment, for our Colonel
wa crested and tried Scr coward, & the Lit.
Coionei was mottally wounded and died a
lie" days afterwards of course the command
OF the regiment deyolsed upon Major Brooks.
tha' then was. Under his command he regi-
ment was rendered one of the most efficient
10 the line, being brought, by his abilities and
zeal, TO high state of d scipine, for he was
allowed by ali 10 be the besl diciplinarian of
OF bis rank Belonging to the army. When
The British evacuated Boston he marched 10
New York. His conduct in the battle at
White Plains was ihat Of brave and able
oiheer Here il may be well TO notice cir
cumstance witch occurred in relation TO The
battle Just mentioned which will shew that
The man am referring to took care not only
10 maintain his own honor and reputation as
an .iilcer but also took care 10 pre- erve that of
lhebfave soldiers (Alassachusettsmen) compos.
ing The regiment to which lie was attached.
Ten. M Dugal had, by mistake, published
m General Orders that the regiment TO which
brooks belonged retreated from the field of bat
tie IN an unniiitary and broken manner but
The TACT vas that the regiment to which Brooks
was attached, was moi the one which 60 re-.
Treated, and he highly resented the unmer,ted
censure which was thus thrown upon him and
his men, declaring that he would not retain his
commission unless the mistake was recti6ed.
