(No Harrisons were named among the list of head-rights appended to the
patent.)* / -
On this date, Andrew Harrison, Richard Long and Samuel Elliott, received a patent for 1149 acres and 11 perches in St. Mary’s Parish, Essex County, adjoining lands of the said Harrison, the patent lands of John Buckner, and others, for the transportation of 22 persons.

1705: Leonard Dinnerstein and Mary Dale Palsson write in Jews in the South that Jews faced some form of discrimination in each of the colonies. According to the written law, though in practice the harshest penalties were never enforced, denial of the Trinity could lead to imprisonment in Virginia and death in Maryland. A 1705 Virginia statute denied Jews from obtaining full citizenship and barred them from appearing in court as witnesses.[4]

April 22, 1774: John Penn throughout showed his Quaker love of peace. As early as
April 22, 1774, he wrote Colonel William Crawford, who subsequently
adhered to Virginia. Penn addressed his letter to "Wm. Crawford and
his Associate Justices of the Peace in Westmoreland County.'* Its text
ran:
Gcndemen — ^The present alarming situation of our affairs in Westmoreland county
occasioned by the very unaccountable Conduct of the Government of Virginia requires
the utmost attention of this Government and therefore I intend with all possible Expe-
dition to send Commissioners to expostulate with my Lord Dunmore upon the Behavior
of those he has thought proper to invest with such authority as hath greatly disturbed
the peace of diat country. As the Governor of Virginia hath the Power of raising a
Militia and there is not such in this Province it will be in vain to contend with them in
the way of Force. The Magistrates therefore at the same time, that they shall continue
with Steadiness to exercise the jurisdiction of Pennsylvania to the Distributions of Jus-
tice and Punishment of Vice, must be cautious with the officers of Lord Dunmore as
may tend to widen the present tmhappy Breach and therefore as Things are at present
Circumstances I would not advise the Magistracy of Westmoreland County to proceed
by way of Criminal Prosecution against them for exercising the Government of Vir-
ginia. I flatter myself that our Commissioners of Virginia will succeed according to
our expectations and that our Afifairs Westward will soon be put upon a peaceable and
quiet Footing.
Governor Penn wrote the Pennsylvania justices the same day :
Gentlemen : I received your several letters informing me of your Arrest and Con-
finement on Warrants issued by Dr. Connolly and cannot but greatly approve your
Spirit and the Attachment you have shown the Interests of this Province. But as the
Confinement of your persons at so great a Distance from Your Homes must be injur-
ious to your private Concerns, if you can procure your Enlargement by finding bail, I
shall by no means disapprove of such a step. I shall with all possible Expedition send
Commissioners to Lord Dunmore to apply for your discharge and as Col. Wilson is so
obliging as to offer to call at Staunton on his way home, I have instructed him to pro-
cure for you any security or credit you may stand in need of, and shall do everything
in my Power to free you from your disagreeable situation, or to make it as comfortable
as may be.
I am gentlemen
Your Very Humble Servant,
JoHK Penn.
To ^neas Madcay, Devereaux Smith, and Andrew McFarlane, Justices of the
Peace for Westmoreland County.6
George Washington to Robert Dinwiddie, April 22, 1756
Winchester, April 22, 1756
Honble. Sir: This encloses several letters, and the minutes of a council of war,[8] which was held upon the receipt of them. Your Honor may see to what unhappy straits the distressed inhabitants as well as I, am reduced. I am too little acquainted, Sir, with pathetic language, to attempt a description of the people’s distresses, though I have a generous soul, sensible of wrongs, and swelling for redress But what can I do? If bleeding, dying! Would glut their insatiate revenge, I would be a willing offering to savage fury, and die by inches to save a people! I see their situation, know their danger, and participate their sufferings, without having it in my power to give them further relief, than uncertain promises. In short, I see inevitable destruction in so clear alight, that, unless vigourous measures are taken by the Assembly, and speedy assistance sent from below, the poor inhabitants that are now in forts, must unavoidably fall, while the remainder of the country are flying before the barbarous for. In fine, the melancholy situation of the people, the little prospect of assistance, the gross and scandalous abuses cast upon the officers in general, which is reflecting upon me in particular, for suffering misconducts of such extraordinary kinds, and the distant prospects, if any, a that I can see, of gaining honor and reputation in the service, are motives which cause me to lament the hour, that game me a commission, and would induce me, at any other time than this of imminent danger, to resign without one hesitating moment, a command, which I never expect to reap either honor or benefit from; but, on the contrary, have almost an absolute certainty of incurring displeasure below, while the murder of poor innocent babes and helpless families may be laid to my account here!
The supplicating tears of the women, and moving petitions from the men, melt me into such deadly sorrow, that I solemnly declare, if I know my own mind, I could offer myself a willing sacrifice to the butchering enemy, provided that would contribute to the people’s ease.
Lord Fairfax has ordered men form the adjacent counties, but when they come, or in what numbers, I cannot pretend to determine. If I may judge from the success we have met with here, I have but little hopes, as three day’s incessant endeavours have produced but twenty men.
I have too often urged my opinion for vigorous measures, therefore I shall only add, that, besides the accounts you will receive in the letters, we are told from all parts, that the woods appear to be alive with Indians, who feast upon the fat of the land. As we have not more than a barrel or two of powder at this place, the rest being at Fort Cumberland, I could wish your Honor would send up some. I have wrote to Alexandria and Fredericksburg, desiring that two barrels may be sent from each place, but whether there is any at either, I know not. I have sent orders to Captain Harrison to be diligent on the waters where he is posted, and to use his utmost endeavours to protect the people; and, if possible, to surprise the enemy at their sleeping-places. Ashby’s letter is a very extraordinary one.[9] The design of the Indians was only, in my opinion, to intimidate him into a surrender. For which reason I have wrote him work, that if they do attack him, he must defend that place to the last extremity, and when he is bereft of hope, then to lay a train to blow up the fort, and retire by night to Cumberland. A small fort, which we have at the mouth of Patterson’s Creek, containing an officer and thirty men guarding stores, was attacked smartly by the French and Indians; and were as warmly received, upon which they retired. Our men at present are dispersed into such small bodies, guarding the people and public stores, that we are not able to make, or even form a body. I am your Honor’s, &c.[10] [11]

April 22, 1778: The sudden refusal of Frederick the Great to allow the passage of troops told most of all on the Zerbst regiment. In order to pass round the Prussian dominions, this body was obliged to march through seven different states and free cities. The result was disastrous. In the village of Zeulenrode a deserter chased by a corporal sought refuge in an inn. The corporal, in his anger and excitement, shot after him through the window and killed the innkeeper's wife, who was sitting quietly in the room. The peasants were enraged, and a riot shortly afterwards occurred, in which a lieutenant was mortally injured. Moreover, the Prussian recruiting officers saw their chance to pick up a few men, and once on the route there was a skirmish with them and bloodshed. Three hundred and thirtyfour men deserted in the course of ten days, leaving only four hundred and ninety-four under the banners. The colonel succeeded, however, in enlisting about one hundred and thirty recruits, to take the place of the deserters, and six hundred and twenty-five men were thus shipped on April 22, 1778, at Stade. Making a quick passage, they arrived before Quebec towards the last of May; but they had not come to the end of their troubles. The commander of the place had received no orders concerning them, and would not allow them to land. For three months the poor fellows had to lie on shipboard in the St. Lawrence, before instructions could be received from England.
Frederick the Great has left in his memoirs his own account of his reasons for his conduct on this occasion.
"The King of England, who from caprice or obstinacy maintained Bute's system, stiffened himself against the obstacles which arose under his feet. With little consideration for the misfortunes which fell on his people, he became all the more ardent in the execution of his designs; and in order to obtain a superiority of force over the Americans, he had negotiations carried on with all the courts of Germany to obtain what little help they could still furnish. Germany already felt the evil consequences of sending so many of her men into those distant climes, and the King of Prussia did not like to see the Empire deprived of all its defenders, especially in case of a new war; for in the troubles of 1756, Lower Saxony and Westphalia alone had set on foot an army with which the progress of the French had been stopped and disorganized. For this reason he made difficulties for the passage of the troops of the princes allied to England when they had to pass through Magdeburg, Minden, and the district on the Lower Rhine. That was but a weak revenge for the bad attitude which the court of London had assumed towards him concerning the city and harbor of Dantzic. Nevertheless, the king did not care to push matters too far, for long experience had taught him that one always finds a host of enemies in the world, without taking the trouble to raise them wantonly against oneself." (OEuvres de Frederic le Grand," vol. vi. p. 117.)[13]
April 22, 1793: President Washington affirms United States neutrality in the war between France and England.[14]
April 22, 1794: After the beginning of orderly legal procedure in southwestern Pennsylvania, the simple form of the township municipality prevailed from 1771 to 1794. The town of Pittsburgh was the first one incorporated by Act of the Pennsylvania Assembly on April 22, 1794. This was followed on April 4, 1796, by the incorporation of Uniontown as a borough. The Borough of Greensburg was incorporated third on February 19, 1799. Each of these municipalities have now become cities, with their many departments and multiple laws.
The justices of Westmoreland County, as they sat in court on that spring morning of April 6, 1773, were quite familiar with the landmarks of the rivers and the military roads, but their abortive description of the new Menallen Township, their omission of a substantial corner of old Armstrong Township up on the Allegheny Mountain towards Cherry Tree; and their slight confusion in distinguishing the Laurel Hill from the Chestnut Ridge to the southeastward showed some degree of uncertainty as to lines. Many of these lines, however, remain fixed down to the present time, in spite of the clash with Virginia over the matter of jurisdiction in the days of the Revolution.[3][15]
April 22, 1821: Andrew Jackson arrived at New Orleans.[1]
April 22, 1822: House of Representatives passed resolution calling for investigation of the war department contract for stone for the Rip Rap Shoals of Virginia.[16]

April 22, 1839 – The Old Settlers hold an election to select new officers to strengthen their organization vis-a-vis the Latecomers under Ross. John Brown, formerly of the area near Chattanooga, Tennessee region, was elected Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation West.[19]
April 22, 1863: We arrived at Nolan's Plantation on the 22d. Cavalry swam the bayou in the morning to reconnoiter the country, and beyond a bridge was immediately commenced. Timber for its construction was obtained from a cotton gin on the plantation, and such other buildings as were at hand. All the force that could be used was called into requisition. The bayou was very wide at this point, but less rapid than anywhere else. Parties were dispatched in all directions to procure boats and material upon which to build a floating bridge. These were securely fastened by a network of ropes to the trees standing in the stream, and arranged in the form of an arc with the circumference up stream. Upon this the bridge was built, which when completed measured between five and six hundred feet in length. The train and artillery were all drawn over by hand. The project, as well as the route, being one of our General's own choice, the troops labored assiduously to accomplish the undertaking, while the General himself hurried up the work, being almost constantly present, as though nothing less than the capture of Vicksburg depended upon the speedy success of his project.

Some prayed and recited psalms. When the Jewish residents of Haifa heard the screams and prayers aboard the Assimi” they spontaneously proclaimed a strike that took hold throughout the city. Protesters carried signs reading ‘Open the gates to the Jewish illegals’ and ‘Down with the barbaric attitude toward illegals. The captain had been fined and imprisoned for his role in bringing the Jews to Palestine. To add insult to injury the captain had been fined and imprisoned for his role in bringing the Jews to Palestine.[30]

[8] These minutes are in the Washington Papers. The question was whether to march against the enemy with the small force at Winchester and Fort Edwards or to remain at Winchester. The decision was to remain.
[9] Capt John Ashby wrote from his fort (April 15) that 400 Indians had demanded full surrender of his fort; 1500 had gone to Fort Cumberland and 2000 to the Juniata. The letter, an extract of which is printed in Hamilton’s Letters to Washington, vol. 1. p. 221, was written to Col. Henry Van Meter.
[10] The governor, on receiving this letter, immediately ordered out one-half of the militia in 10 of the upper counties Colonel Fairfaxs, one of the council, wrote to Colonel Washington, (April 26): “The House of Burgesses are pleased with the Governor’s orders, and depend on your vigilance and success. Your endeavours in the service and defence of your country must redound to your honor; therefore do not let any unavoidable interruptions sicken your mind in the attempts you may pursue. Your good health and fortune are the toast at every table. Among the Romans, such a general acclamation and public regard, shown to any of their chieftains, were always esteemed a high honor, and gratefully accepted.”
Landon Carter also wrote as follows: “Virginia has been a neglected Colony by the mother country, and had there been a more active king on the throne of France, they must have made a conquest of it long ago. Should we talk of obliging men to serve the country, you are sure to hear a fellow mumble over the words ‘liberty’ and ‘proerty’ a thousand times. Sir, I think as you do. I have endeavoured, though not on the field, yet in the senate, as much as possible to convince the country of danger, and they know it; but like stingy creatures they are willing to wait for rains to wet the powder, and rats to eat the bow-strings of the enemy, rather than attempt to drive them from their frontiers.” These letters are printed in Hamilton’s Letters to Washington, vol. 1, pp. 213,234.

[22] A soldier of the 81st Illinois, in T. Kilby Smith’s division, recorded that he and his comrades burned every building along their route during the march of April 22. In fact “on the whole of this march from Natchitoches, nearly every building was burned.” (Newsome, Experience In the War, pp. 134-35, 139.) Every kind of domestic animal, cows, calves, hogs, horses, mules, lay dead along the road. Barns, smokehouses, corn cribs, chicken houses, and cotton gins were destroyed as well as dwellings. Not even the cabins of the Negroes escaped the torch. (Jefferson D. Bragg, Louisiana in the Confederacy (Baton Rouge, 1941), p. 171; O. R., xxxiv, Part I, 581.)

The enemy was found strongly posted on the opposite side of the river, for the purpose of contesting the crossing of the Union troops. General Cameron did not attempt to force his way across the river under the fire of the enemy, but, moving his troops up the river, effected a crossing by wading, and thus outflanked the enemy and drove him from his position.

[25] By 2:30 A.M. on April 22 the van of Banks’s army was bivouacked twenty miles southeast of Grand Ecore on the east bank of Cane River. By eleven that morning the rest of the column had closed up well and the march was resumed. That night the leading units camped three miles south of Cloutierville, but not before it was learned that there were enemy troops near Monett’s Ferry. At midnight Emory received orders from Banks to move forward with all of the army except the rear guard and drive the Confederates from their position at the crossing of Cane River. Smith was also asked to dispatch a strong brigade to assist Emory, but ”Whitey” sent back word that he could not spare any men; Taylor was pressing him too closely. (O. R., xxxiv, Part I, 439.)
