John CONDERICK.

John Conderick was one of those hearty
Irishmen, who promptly stepped into the
American ranks, and bravely fought IN the
Revolutionary War. 1t matters not whe-
ther he had deserted, or had been captured
from the British army, he vas jolly and
faithful volunteer in our ranks. Ills zeal,
however, in the outset, unfortunately led hlm
to enlist under several recruiting officers,
and to receive the bounty on enlisting seve-
raj times; in consequence OF which he mad,

ais and sentences of Court Martlais. ne

sympathy of his officers. and he was asked

"Ochl" said he, t'for this reason. fras

so. There was not Drawer or more faith

the duty of private soldier, and no one
could at all times discharge that duty with
more chcerfulness, alacrity and precision

gagged in all the principal battles, and most
of the rencontres which took place, in all OF
which he was distinguished as good soldier.

when the garrison had surrendered, aud the
captured casks of liquor were opened, John

and unperceived by his companions. laid
himself eesy among the wounded and dying
prisoners. Missed by his company, and his
voice. at intervals, being distinguished a
