AN INCIDENT OF THE REVOLUTION
RELATED BY AN OLD SOLDIER.
Jonathan Riley, from Hartford, Connecticut was
sergeant In our regiment. He had served under
General Amherst in the old French war. and was
with the provincals at the taking of Havana. IL
was said that he was dssipated when young and
addicted to many bad habits, but when / knew him
nc was OF reading turn, very srdate and religious
his man was often selected for dangerous and try
ing situations, and his uniform courage and presence
Iot mind ensured him success. | have said he was
lot reading turn,-every man in our regiment, ex-
cepting one, could read and write which is more
Than can be said OF amy British regiment. He was
at length placed ON recruiting station. and in
short period enlisted eat number of men. Among
his recruits was Frank Lilley, boy about sixteen
years oil age, weak and puney lad, who would not
perhaps have passed muster, were we not greatly in
want OF men. The soldiers made this boy the butt
OF their rldcuie, and many sorry joke was uttered
at his expense. They told him to swear his legs in
other words to get them insured. Yet there was
something about him interesting, and at times he
discovered spirit beyond his years. To this boy,
TOR some unknown cause, Riley became greatly at
tached, and seemed to pity him from the bottom Of
his heart. Often on our long and fatiguing march
les, dying almost from want, harrassed necessarily
10y the enemy, has Riley carried the boys knapsack
for miles, and many crus: for the poor wretch was
saved from his scanty allowance. But Frank Lillys
resolution was, once, the cause of saving whole
detachment The American army ,-as encamp-
| ed at Ellzabehtown. The soldiers stationed about
four miles from the main body, near the bay that
separates the continent from Staten Island forming
an advance picked guard, were chosen from a
Southern regiment and were continually DESERVING.
II was a post of some danger, as the young ambi.
tious British officers, experienced sergcants, often
headed parties that approached the shore in silence
during the night and attacked our outposts. Once
they succeeded in surprising and capturing an Of
hccr and twenty men, without the loss of man on
their part. Gen. Washington determined to re-
ieye the force near the bay, and our regiment was
the one from which the selection was made. The
arrangement Of our guard, as near as can receI
lect, was as follows "A body of two hundred and
lSfty men were stationed short distance inland
In advance OF these were several outposts, conss-
Ting of an officer and thirty men each The senti-
Inels were so near as to meet In their rounds, and
were relieved every two hours 1t CHANGED one
dark and windy night, that Lilly and myself were
sentinels on adjoining posts. All the sentines were
directed to fire on the least alarm and retrea, to the
guard, where we were to make the best defence
we could, until supported by the detachment in our
