However, all the testimony goes to show that the commissary department was in charge of men who were either utterly incompetent or grossly negligent of their duty. On the 23rd of June Sullivan wrote Washington saying, "more than one-third of my soldiers have not a s'hirt to fheir backs." On the 30th of July Colonel Hubbard wrote to President Reed saying, " My regiment I fear will be almost totally naked before we can possibly return. I have scarcely a coat or a blanket for every seventh man." On the 31st of July Sullivan's army left Wyoming for Tioga Point, A fleet of more than two hundred boats and a train of nearly fiftoen hundred pack horses were required to transfer the army and its equipment. Tioga Poinlt at the junction of the Tioga and the Susquehanna rivers was reached on the nth of August. The army had been eleven days in making sixty-five miles. The route from Wyoming led through Lackawanna (now Coxton) in Luzerne county ; Quialutimuck, near Ransom Station, Luzerne county; Hunkhannock ; Vanderlip's Farm (now Black Walnut) Wyoming county ; Wyalusing, Standing Stone, Bradford county ; Shesh'hequin, Bradford county. While waiting for Clinton Sullivan built a fort which was named in 'his honor, between the Tioga and . Susquehanna rivers about a mile and a quarter above their junction at a point where the two streams were within a few hundred yards of each other. The center of the present village of Athens, Pa., is almost exactly at this point. Early in the spring Clinton with the First and Third New York regiments passed up the Mohawk to Canajoharie. From this point an expedition was sent out against the Onondagas. About fifty houses were burned and nearly thirty Indians were killed and a somewhat larger number taken prisoners.
