ong since convalescent, and can now set a bird, or wag a tail with any dog in Christendom. If the Conestoga be not peculiarly entitled to the term lucky, there is no luck extant.

I may add, that the officers, without exception, are gentlemen in the complete sense of the word, and possess, in addition to this qualification, a thorough knowledge of their duties. The efficacy of Capt. Phelps is so well known, that special reference to it would be superfluous. Suffice it that an abler or more gallant officer never trod a plank. Fort

ill speak to him by the gate. (Signed) Henry Hamilton. February 24th, 1779. I was at a great Colonel Clark's compliments to Lieutenant-Governor Hamilton, and begs leave to inform him that he will not agree to any terms other than Mr. Hamilton's surrendering himself and garrison prisoners at discretion. If Mr. Hamilton is desirous of a conference with Colonel Clark, he will meet him aturch, about 80 yards from the fort, Lieutenant-Governor Hamilton, Major Hay, superintendent of Indian, and await his fate. I then told Lieutenant-Governor Hamilton that hostilities should not commenck our leave, and parted but a few steps, when Hamilton stopped, and politely asked me if I would be pale and trembling, scarcely able to stand. Hamilton blushed, and, I observed, was much affected athe garrison capitulated: I. Lieutenant-Governor Hamilton engages to deliver to Colonel Clarknfidence in a generous enemy.

Harper's Encyclopedia of United States History (ed. Benson Lossing), Hamilton, Henry 1777-1796 (search)
Hamilton, Henry 1777-1796 Military officer; born in England; was lieutenant-governor of Detroit during the Revolutionary War. He was one of the most active promoters of Indian raids upon the frontier settlements of the Americans in the Northwest. To Detroit he summoned several Indian nations to a council late in 1777; and from that point he sent abroad along the frontiers bands of savages to murder and plunder the American settlers. Their cruelties he applauded as evidence of their attachment to the royal cause. He gave standing rewards for scalps, but offered none for prisoners. His war-parties, composed of white men and Indians, spared neither men, women, nor children. He planned a confederation of the tribes to desolate Virginia. In 1778 he wrote to Lord George Germaine (q. v.), whose favorite he was, Next year there will be the greatest number of savages on the frontier that has ever been known, as the Six Nations have sent belts around to encourage those allies who hav
