Shubal lost his hand in conse- -quence of his carbine going off while he was using the ram rod. We always considered that he was deliberately murdered. The man who killed him was named Reynolds.

Once when I lived with my grand- -mother in the upper part of King Street, I remember that a strong party of Hessian horse and foot passed up or down - probably down. They were hungry, and asked for something to east. My grand- -mother to please them said, "I have an only son below. Take this to him. She then gave them a cheese. They went off satisfied, but of course the cheese was never taken to my father, and my grandmother never supposed it would be."
