Throughout the 15th century, Scottish kings suffered from a lack of crown revenue and James's reign was no exception. The Albany regency had also been constrained with Duke Robert owed his fees of governorship.[34] For the nobility, royal patronage ceased entirely following James's capture; irregular forms of political favours emerged with Albany allowing nobles such as the earl of Douglas and his brother James to remove funds from the customs. [35]It was against this backdrop that James's coronation took place at Scone on May 21, 1424. The coronation parliament of the Three Estates witnessed the king perform a knighthood ceremony for eighteen prominent nobles including Alexander Stewart, Murdoch's son; an event probably intended to foster loyalty to the crown within the political community.[36] Called primarily to discuss issues surrounding the finance of the ransom payments, the parliament heard James underline his position and authority as monarch. He ensured the passing of legislation designed to substantially improve crown income by revoking the patronage of royal predecessors and guardians. The earls of Douglas and Mar were immediately affected by this when their ability to remove large sums from the customs was blocked.[37] Despite this, James was still dependent on the nobility—especially Douglas—for its support and initially adopted a less confrontational stance.[6] The early exception to this was Walter Stewart, Albany's son. Walter was the heir to the earldom of Lennox and had been in open revolt against his father during 1423 for not giving way to his younger brother Alexander for this title.[2]
May 21, 1524: Surrey succeeded his father as 3rd Duke of Norfolk.[2] His liking for war brought him into conflict with Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, who preferred diplomacy in the conduct of foreign affairs. In 1523 Wolsey had secured to the Duke of Suffolk the reversion of the office of Earl Marshal which had been held by Norfolk's father, and in 1525 the Duke of Richmond had replaced Norfolk as Lord Admiral. Finding himself pushed aside, Norfolk spent considerable time away from court in 1525–7 and 1528.[2]
In 1526 Norfolk's niece Anne Boleyn had caught the King's eye,[6] and Norfolk's political fortunes revived with his involvement in the King's attempt to have his marriage to Queen Catherine of Aragon annulled. By 1529 matters of state were being increasingly handled by Norfolk, Suffolk and the Boleyns, who pressed the King to remove Wolsey. In October the King sent Norfolk and Suffolk to obtain the great seal from the Cardinal. In November Wolsey was arrested on a charge of treason, but died before trial. Norfolk benefited from Wolsey's fall, becoming the King's leading councillor and applying himself energetically in the King's efforts to find a way out of his marriage to Queen Catherine. His loyalty and service to the King brought him ample rewards.[3]

Arms
As Prince of Wales, Charles's coat of arms was the royal arms (which he later inherited), differenced by a label of three points Argent.[78] His arms as monarch were: Quarterly, I and IV Grandquarterly, Azure three fleurs-de-lis Or (for France) and Gules three lions passant guardant in pale Or (for England); II Or a lion rampant within a double tressure flory-counter-flory Gules (for Scotland); III Azure a harp Or stringed Argent (for Ireland).

May 21, 1661: Charles’s and Catherine of Braganza were married at Portsmouth in two ceremonies – a Catholic one conducted in secret, followed by a public Anglican service[33] at the chapel of Domus Dei.[1][34] Her limited charms and conventual upbringing were not potent enough to wean Charles away from the society of his mistresses, and within a few weeks of her arrival she became aware of her difficult position as the wife of a licentious king, but, although Charles continued to have children by his mistresses, he insisted she be treated with respect.
In an unpopular move, also in 1662, Charles sold Dunkirk to his first cousin King Louis XIV of France for about £375,000.[35] The channel port, although a valuable strategic outpost, was a drain on Charles's limited finances.[36]
Obverse of medal

Before Charles's restoration, the Navigation Acts of 1650 had hurt Dutch trade by giving English vessels a monopoly, and had started the First Dutch War (1652–1654). To lay foundations for a new beginning, envoys of the States-General appeared in November 1660 with the Dutch Gift.[37] The Second Dutch War (1665–1667) was started by English attempts to muscle in on Dutch possessions in Africa and North America. The conflict began well for the English, with the capture of New Amsterdam (renamed New York in honour of Charles's brother James, Duke of York) and a victory at the Battle of Lowestoft, but in 1667 the Dutch launched a surprise attack on the English (the Raid on the Medway) when they sailed up the River Thames to where a major part of the English fleet was docked. Almost all of the ships were sunk except for the flagship, the Royal Charles, which was taken back to the Netherlands as a trophy.[38] The Second Dutch War ended with the signing of the Treaty of Breda (1667).
As a result of the Second Dutch War, Charles dismissed Lord Clarendon, whom he used as a scapegoat for the war.[39] Clarendon fled to France when impeached for high treason (which carried the penalty of death). Power passed to five politicians known collectively by a whimsical acronym as the Cabal—Clifford, Arlington, Buckingham, Ashley (afterwards Earl of Shaftesbury) and Lauderdale. In fact, the Cabal rarely acted in concert, and the court was often divided between two factions led by Arlington and Buckingham, with Arlington the more successful.[40]
In 1668, England allied itself with Sweden, and with its former enemy the Netherlands, in order to oppose Louis XIV in the War of Devolution. Louis made peace with the Triple Alliance, but he continued to maintain his aggressive intentions towards the Netherlands. In 1670, Charles, seeking to solve his financial troubles, agreed to the Treaty of Dover, under which Louis XIV would pay him £160,000 each year. In exchange, Charles agreed to supply Louis with troops and to announce his conversion to Catholicism "as soon as the welfare of his kingdom will permit".[41] Louis was to provide him with 6,000 troops to suppress those who opposed the conversion. Charles endeavoured to ensure that the Treaty—especially the conversion clause—remained secret.[42] It remains unclear if Charles ever seriously intended to convert.[43]
Meanwhile, by a series of five charters, Charles granted the British East India Company the rights to autonomous territorial acquisitions, to mint money, to command fortresses and troops, to form alliances, to make war and peace, and to exercise both civil and criminal jurisdiction over the acquired areas in India.[44] Earlier in 1668 he leased the islands of Bombay for a nominal sum of £10 paid in gold.[45] The Portuguese territories that Catherine brought with her as dowry had proved too expensive to maintain; Tangier was abandoned.[46]
In 1670, Charles granted control of the entire Hudson Bay drainage basin to the Hudson's Bay Company by royal charter, and named the territory Rupert's Land, after his cousin Prince Rupert of the Rhine, the company's first Governor.[47]
Conflict with Parliament
Although previously favourable to the Crown, the Cavalier Parliament was alienated by the king's wars and religious policies during the 1670s. In 1672, Charles issued the Royal Declaration of Indulgence, in which he purported to suspend all penal laws against Catholics and other religious dissenters. In the same year, he openly supported Catholic France and started the Third Anglo-Dutch War.[48]
The Cavalier Parliament opposed the Declaration of Indulgence on constitutional grounds by claiming that the King had no right to arbitrarily suspend laws passed by Parliament. Charles withdrew the Declaration, and also agreed to the Test Act, which not only required public officials to receive the sacrament under the forms prescribed by the Church of England,[49] but also later forced them to denounce certain teachings of the Catholic Church as "superstitious and idolatrous".[50] Clifford, who had converted to Catholicism, resigned rather than take the oath, and died shortly after. By 1674 England had gained nothing from the Anglo-Dutch War, and the Cavalier Parliament refused to provide further funds, forcing Charles to make peace. The power of the Cabal waned and that of Clifford's replacement, Lord Danby, grew.

Gen. Irvine at Fort Pitt to:”the officer who will be appointed to command a detachment of volunteer militia on an expedition against the Indian town at or near Sandusky”
“The object of your command is to destroy with fire and sword, if practicable, the Indian town and settlement at Sandusky, by which we hope to give ease and safety to the inhabitants of this country; but if impracticable, then you will doubtless perform such other services in your power as will be in their consequences have a tendency to answer this great end.
“Previous to taking up your line of march it will be highly expedient that all matters respecting rank or command would be well understooood, as far at least as first, second, and third.[10] This precaution, in case of accident or misfortune, may be of great importance. Indeed, I think whatever grade or rank may be fixed on to have command, their relative rank should be determined. And it is indispensably necessary that subordination and discipline should be kept up; the whole ought to understand that, nowithstanding they are volunteers, yet by this tour they are to get credit for it in their tours of military duty, and that for this and other good reasons they must, while out on this duty, consider themselves, to all intent, subject to the military laws and regulations for the government of the militia when in actual service.
“Your best chance of success will be, if possible, to effect a surprise, and though this will be difficult, yet by forced and rapid marches it may, in a great degree, be accomplished. I am clearly of opinon that you shoild regulate your last day’s march so as to reach the town about dawn of day, or a little before, and that the march of this day should be as long as can be performed.
“I need scarcely mention to so virtuous and disinterested a set of men as you will have the honor to command that though the main object at peresnt is for the purpose above set forth, viz., the protection of this country, yet you are to consider yourselves as acting in behalf of and for the United Sates, that of course it will be incumbent on you especially who will have the command to act in every instance in such a manner as will reflect honor on, and add reutation to, the American arms, of nations or independent States.[11]
“Should any person, British, or in the service or pay of Britain or their allies, fall into your hands, if it should prove inconvenient for you to bring them off, you will, nevertheless, take special care to liberate them on parole, in such manner as to insure liberty for an equal number of people in their hands. There are individuals, however, who I think should be brought off at all events should the fortune of war throw them into your hands. I mean such as have deserted to the enemy since the Declaration of Independence.”[12]
XII.— IRVINE TO WASHINGTON.
FORT PITT, May 21, 1782.
Sir:—A number of the principal people of this country made application to me, about two weeks since, for my consent to their collecting a body of volunteers to go against Sandusky,[13] which I agreed to on these express conditions: that they did not mean to extend their settlements,[14] nor had anything in view but to harass the enemy, with an intention to protect the frontier, and that any conquests they might make should be in behalf and for the United States; that they would be governed by military laws as militia; that they must collect such numbers as might probably be successful; and, lastly, that they would equip themselves and victual at their own expense. They are accordingly assembling this day at the Mingo Bottom,[15] all on horseback, with thirty days’ provisions. They have asked of me only a few flints and a small supply of powder.
As they will elect their officers, I have taken some pains to get Colonel [William] Crawford[16] appointed to com mand, and hope he will be. He left me yesterday on his way down to the place of rendezvous. He does not wish to go with a smaller number than four hundred; whether this number will assemble I cannot say. He pressed me for some officers. I have sent with him Lieutenant Rose,[17] my aid-dc-camp, a very vigilant, active, brave young gentleman, well acquainted with service; and a surgeon[18]
These two are all I could venture to spare. Several were solicitous for my going, but I did not think myself at liberty, consistent. with the spirit of your excellency’s instructions; nor are we in such a situation that I could take a single continental soldier along, particularly as the volunteers are all mounted. If their number exceeds three hundred, I am of opinion they may succeed, as their march will be so rapid they will probably in a great degree effect a surprise.
I cannot find a man in this country who has a tolerable knowledge of the road to Niagara. There are numbers who are acquainted to the heads of Alleghany; thence, I think, the people of the state of New York are better acquainted than any this way.
P. S.— The volunteers have sent requesting my instructions[19] (which I will send) for the officer who may be appointed to command. The troops behave remarkably well since a few examples have been made.

May 21, 1856: George W. Brown's free-state newspaper in Lawrence, the Herald of Freedom, had long been a source of bitter contempt to the proslavery forces operating in Kansas. On May 21, 1856, Sheriff Jones, accompanied by a group of proslavery men acting as his posse, entered Lawrence intent on destroying the offices of the Herald of Freedom and the Kansas Free State . In the raid that followed they destroyed the newspaper offices (dumping their type in the Kansas River), looted several other businesses, and burned the Free State Hotel (later the Eldridge House). This action became widely known as the "Sack of Lawrence." [26] On May 21, Sheriff Jones and a posse of 800 Southern sympathizers converged on Lawrence. Dr. Robinson’s house on Mount Oread was taken by the federal marshal as headquarters and the newspaper printing presses were damaged and thrown in the river. The Free State Hotel was also destroyed.[18] [27]

Background
Lawrence was established in 1854 by anti-slavery settlers, many with the help of the New England Emigrant Aid Company, and soon became the center of pro-slavery violence in Kansas Territory. While the village had been besieged in December 1855, it was not directly attacked at that time. The non-fatal shooting of Douglas County Sheriff Samuel Jones on April 23, 1856, while he was attempting to arrest free-state settlers in Lawrence, is believed to have been the immediate cause of the violence.[1] Lawrence residents drove Jones out of town after he was shot and on May 11, Federal Marshal J. B. Donaldson proclaimed that this action had interfered with the execution of warrants against the extralegal Free-State legislature, which had been set up in opposition to the official pro-slavery territorial government.[1] Building on this proclamation and a finding by a grand jury that Lawrence's Free State Hotel was actually built as a fort, Sheriff Jones collected a posse of 800 southerners to enter Lawrence, disarm the citizens, wreck the town's anti-slavery presses, and destroy the Free State Hotel.[2][3]

"Old Sacramento Cannon" captured by U.S. during the Mexican-American War in 1847 and taken to the Liberty Arsenal. The cannon was seized by pro-slavery forces in 1856 and fired during the Sacking of Lawrence. The cannon was damaged in 1896 when it was loaded with clay and straw and fired.
On May 21, 1856, a posse of 800 southerners led by Sheriff Jones gathered closer to the town. A large force was stationed on Mount Oread and cannon planted so as to cover and command the place. The house of Lawrence resident, and the first governor of Kansas, Charles L. Robinson was taken as headquarters for the Marshal and the officers of his army. On every road leading to the town and on the opposite side of the river, detachments of troops were posted to prevent escape from the assault. The forces mustered two flags. The blood-red flag, on which was inscribed "Southern-rights," floated side by side that day with the "stars and stripes."[4]
The two printing offices were hacked, the presses destroyed, and the type thrown in the river. The planned work was finished by destroying the Free State Hotel. The first shot was fired from a cannon on the opposite side of Massachusetts Street by David Rice Atchison, but it failed to hit the building. About fifty shots were afterwards fired with little effect upon the solid walls. Next the posse attempted to blow it up. Several kegs of gunpowder were exploded within, with no appreciable damage to the walls. Its destruction was finally caused by an incendiary, and in the early evening it was a roofless, smoldering ruin. This work was followed by petty robberies and looting throughout the half-deserted town.[4] As the men left, they burned Robinson's private dwelling on Mount Oread.
There was one fatality, a slavery proponent killed by falling masonry.[5][28][29]

The relations between the local populace and the Union regiments were not improved when the 24th went as a group to the St. James Methodist Episcopal Church. Arriving shortly after Sunday school had begun, they surprised the congregation. Rigby was led to believe that they were not welcome.[35] The Christian private revealed:
“A class of little boys sitting near desired me to teach them. We talked about their lesson and soon were on good terms. At the close of Sunday school they bade me goodby and raised their little mouths for a kiss. Sweet cherabs, too young to be tainted by the cesspool of rebellion and sin in wh9ich they are unfortunately placed. The people manifested the same spireit in church which bordered upon all conformed to the regulation of the church like men accustomed to assemble in the house of God. Such conduct will break down the prejudice against us sooner than anything else. The minister a very unclergical looking man dressed in rebgel gray preached from II Timothe 2:2. His manner was affected, language ambiguous and lengthened his discourse by repetitions. He stated that owning tro existing circumstances further appointments would be withdrawn for the present. I construed ‘Existing circumstances’ to mean ‘We are not prepared to worship with Blue Coats.’[36]

Lindbergh's interest in aviation led him to flying school in Lincoln, Nebraska, and later brought him work running stunt-flying tours and as an airmail pilot. While regularly flying a route from St. Louis to Chicago, he decided to try to become the first pilot to fly alone nonstop from New York to Paris. He obtained the necessary financial backing from a group of businessmen, and on May 21, 1927, after a flight that lasted slightly over 33 hours, Lindbergh landed his plane, the Spirit of St. Louis, in Paris. He won worldwide fame along with his $25,000 prize. [42]

In 1777 Clark was named a major in the VA militia by Governor Patrick Henry (later lieutenant colonel and then general). In 1778 he visited Pittsburgh, Redstone Creek on the Monongahela, Wheeling, and other locations in the upper Ohio Valley. Among those he conferred with was Captain James O’Hara who at the time was carrying supplies to Kentucky.

"George Rogers Clark. From the Kanawha's mouth in May, 1778, George Rogers Clark set out to attack the British at Vincennes and Kaskaskia. The conquest of the Northwest by his little army of 175 men is ranked among the greatest exploits of all history."
In 1779, Clark led American forces in the defeat of British forces at Vincennes, Indiana. He was a colonial leader on the western front against the British and Indians. Sometimes he is mentioned on the Ohio River and othertimes up around Detroit. Some historians write that Clark’s overriding ambition in life was to take Detroit for the Americans—something he was never able to do.

[11][11] Yet the Moravian historians and their imitators have heaped unmeasured abuse on the brave men who composed this expedition. Heckewelder, in his “History of the Indian Nation,” calls them a “gang of banditti;” and Loskiel, writing in the same vein in his “History of Indian Mission,” said, “The same gang of murderers who had committed the massacre on the Muskingum did not give up their bloody design upon the remnant of the Indian congregation, though it was delayed for a season. They marched in May, 1782, to Sandusky, where they found nothing but empty huts. The Rev Joseph Doddridge, D.D., following the lead of these Moravian defamers, in his “Notes on the Settlement and Indian Wars of the Western Parts of Viginia and Pennsylvania”, says of Crawford’s expedition, “This, in one point of view at least, is to be considered as a second Moravian campaign,, as on eof its objects was that of finishing the work of murder and plunder with the Christian Indians at their new extablishment on the Sandusky. The next object was that of destroying Wyandot towns on the same river. It was the resolution of all thowe concerned in this expedition not to spare the life of any Indians that might fall into therir hands, whether friends or foes…It would seem that the long continuance of the Indian war had debased a considerable portion of our population to the savage state of our nature. Having lost so many relatives by the Indians, and witnessed their horrid murders and other depredations on so extensive a scale, they became subjects of that indiscriminating thirst for revenge which is such a prominent feature in the savage character, and having had a taste of blood and plunder, without risk or loss on their part, they resolved to go on and kill every Indian they could find, whether friend or foe.” Does not the tenor of Gen. Irvin’s instructions to Col. Crawford completely disprove the allegations of Loskiel, Hockewelder, and Doddridge? History of Fayette County, Pennsylvania, edited by Franklin Ellis.

[13] By “Sandusky,” General Irvine meant a Wyandot Indian town and settlement upon the Sandusky river in what is now Wyandot county, Ohio. It was then a rendeavous for British Indians of the northwest, preparatory to their striking the western borders of Pennsylvania and Virginia. Near by were located Shawanese, Mingoes, Monses?, Delawares and Ottawas. It was in easy communication with Detroit, headquarters of British troops for the whole country west of Niagara.
[14] Irvine here refers to the scheme of some of the borderers of making new settlements upon the western or Indian side of the Ohio river, especially upon the Muskingum—the “new state scheme.”
[15] Mingo Bottom here spoken of by General irvine was on the east side of the Ohio, a little above but across the river from what is now Steubenville, Ohio. There was also a Mingo bottom below, on the west side of the Ohio (ante, p. 100, note), at which place the volunteers, after crossing the river, were to choose their officers and march thence directly for Sandusky.
[16] William Crawford was born in Westmoreland county, Virginia; his family, however, early moved to Frederick county, beyond the Blue Ridge. Here he married Hannah Vance. He was about ten years older than Washington. but was taught by the latter the art of surveying. Up until the commencement of the old French war, Crawford’s principal duties were such as usually appertain to a farmer’s life. In 1755, he forsook the compass and the plow for
“The pomp and circumstance of glorious war,”
receiving from the governor of Virginia a commission as ensign. He was first employed in garrison duty, or as a scout upon the frontiers. In 175S, he marched with the Virginia troops under Washington to Fort Duquesne, which post was reached and occupied in November. Crawford remained in the service, being promoted first to a lieutenantcy afterwards commissioned as captain. At the close of hostilities, he returned to his home and resumed his labors of farmer and surveyor. In Pontiac’s war, which followed the seven years’ war, he took an active part, doing efficient service in protecting the frontiers from savage incursions.
While in the Virginia army, Crawford became familiar with the country watered by the Monongahela and its branches. He had, indeed, become enamored of the trans-Alleghany region, and resolved, at some future day to make it his home. The time had now arrived to put his resolution into practical effect. Early, therefore, in the summer of 1765, he reached the Youghiogheny river, where, at a place then known as “Stewart’s Crossings,” in what is now Fayette county, Pennsylvania, he chose his future residence; moving his family, consisting of his wife and three children, over the mountains in the spring of 1766. With Crawford, at this place, the next year, Washington opened a correspondence, which continued until near the time of the above letter. (See The Washingtou-Crawford Letters. Cincinnati:
Robert Clarke & Co.)
Among the first employments of Crawford after his removal, besides farming, were surveying and trading With the Indians. During the year 1770, he was appointed one of the justices of the peace for his county, Cumberland, then the most westerly county of Pennsylvania. In the autumn of that year, he received a visit, at his humble cabin upon the Youghiogheny, from Washington, who was then on a tour down the Ohio. Crawford accompanied his friend to the Great Kanawha, the party returning to “Stewart’s Crossings” late in November, whence Washington leisurely made his way back to Mt. Vernon.
In March, 1771, Bedford county having been formed from that part of Cumberland including the home of Crawford, he was appointed by Governor Penn one of the justices of the peace for the new county; and in 1773, the erection of Westmoreland from Bedford taking in his residence, he was commissioned one of the “justices of the court of general quarter sessions of the peace, and of the county court of common pleas” for that county. As he was first named on the list of justices, he became by courtesy and usage the presjdent judge of Westmoreland the first to hold that office in the county. He was, the same year, appointed surveyor for the Ohio company, by the college of William and Mary.
In 1773, Lord Dunmore, the governor of Virginia, paid a visit to Crawford at his house upon the Youghiogheny, the occasion being turned to profitable account by both parties; by the Earl, in getting reliable information of desirable lands; by Crawford, in obtaining promises for patents for such as he had sought out and surveyed. The next year —1774— occurred “Lord Dunmore’s war,” a conflict between the Virginians on the one, side, and the Shawanese and Mingoes, principally, on the other. In this contest, Crawford was a prominent actor; first as captain of a company on a scouting expedition, building, subsequently, along with Major Angus McDonald, a fort at the present site of Wheeling; afterwards as major in command of troops belonging to the division of the army which descended the Ohio to the mouth of Hocking river, in what is now the state of Ohio. The only fighting done in the Indian country after the bloody battle of Point Pleasant on the tenth of October, was by a detachment under Crawford, in what is now Franklin county, Ohio, where he surprised and destroyed two Mingo villages, securing some prisoners as well as considerable amount of plunder, and rescuing two white captives.
The interest taken by Crawford in this war operated greatly to prejudice his Pennsylvania friends against him; for, among them, the conflict had been an exceedingly unpopular one. Crawford, who, at first had sided with Pennsylvania in the boundary controversy subsisting between it and Virginia, now took part with the latter; so he was ousted from all offices held by him under authority of the former province. In December, 1774, he had been conimissioned by Dunmore a justice of the peace and a justice of oyer and terminer for the county of Augusta, the court to be held at Fort Dunmore (Pittsburgh). He did not qualify, however, for these offices until after he had been superseded in those held by him under Pennsylvania authority. Augusta county, as claimed by Virginia, included Crawford’s home upon the Youghiogheny; afterwards the district of West Augusta was formed out of that county. Crawford’s place of residence then fell in that district. Finally, when Yohogania county was established, his cabin came within its boundaries and so remained until Virginia relinquished her claim to southwestern Pennsylvania.
Crawford not only took office under Virginia, but he became an active partisan in extending the jurisdiction of his native province over the disputed territory. Some of his acts were doubtless oppressive, though he soon atoned for them in his patriotic course upon the breaking out of the revolution. The partisan feeling in his breast immediately gave place to the noble one of patriotism. He struck hands with Pennsylvanians in the cause of liberty.
In 1778, Crawford entered the revolutionary service as lieutenant-colonel of the fifth Virginia regiment — William Peachy, colonel. He remained with his regiment until called to the command of the seventh in place of William Dangerfield, resigned. Afterwards, being assigned to the duty of raisiug a new regiment — the thirteenth Virginia — he resigned his command of the seventh. His time thus far had been spent east of the mountains; but now, late in the year, he returned to his home; as the thirteenth “West Augusta regiment “—was to be raised west of the Alleghanies. In August, 1777, with about two hundred of his new levies, Crawford joined the main army under Washington, who was then near Philadelphia. He rendered efficient service in the preliminary movements which resulted in the battle of Brandy-wine, and in that contest not only took an active and prominent part, but came near being captured. He was also, it seems, in the battle of Germantown. Just before this, General Joseph Reed wrote Washington that he had “Colonel Crawford “with him, “a very good officer.”
Late in 1777, Crawford returned to his home, having been sent to the west by Washington to take a command under Brigadier-General Edward Hand. The commander-in-chief, in writing to the board of war on the twenty-third of the followiug May, spoke of Crawford as “a brave and active officer.” His being ordered to the western department, lost him the command of the thirteenth Virginia and his place in the continental line, which Washington, although he regretted the circumstance, could npt get restored to him. Under Brigadier-General Lachlau McIntosh, who succeeded Hand in August, 1778, at Pittsburgh, Crawford took command of the militia of the western counties of Virginia and had in charge the building of Fort McIntosh at what is now Beaver, in Beaver county, Pennsylvania. He marched with that officer into the Indian country in November, in command of a brigade, and was present at the building in December of Fort Laurens, upon the west bank of the Tuscarawas river, in what is now Tuscarawas county, Ohio. He returned soon after to his home, and, in the spring, again marched under McIntosh into the wilderness to the relief of that post. Crawford had now but few prospects before him in a military way, nevertherless he lost no opportunity, when called upon. in serving his country; for he still held his commission as colonel, and continued to hold it until his death.
Notwithstanding the time spent by him in the army, Crawford found leisure to fill several positions of honor and trust to which he bad been called by his fellow citizens at home. In November, 1776, he was appointed deputy surveyor of Yohogauia county, and sat at intervals in 1777 and the following year as one of its judges. In 1778, he was one of the commissioners for adjusting and settling the boundary line between Yohogania and Ohio counties, Virginia; and, in 1779, was commissioned as surveyor of his county, continuing in that office to the time of his death, which occurred before the return of the expedition spoken of by Irvine as assembling at Mingo Bottom. (See last note to letter XIV, following.)
[17] ‘John Rose, familiarly known at Fort Pitt as “Major Rose.” His real name was Gustavus H. de Rosenthal, or, more correctly, Henri Gustave Rosenthal. He was a Russian nobleman. Becoming involved in a duel, he killed his antagonist and fled his country. He arrived in America in the early days of the revolution; made his appearance in the cantonments of the patriot army, and gave his name as simply John Rose, stodiously concealing his rank and birth. He was a fine looking young man; spoke the French language, and having taken a brief course of surgery, in Baltimore, was appointed subsequently surgeon of the seventh Pennsylvania regiment, having previously done duty as a surgeon’s math in one of the army hospitals. At length, owing to a feeling of jealousy on the part of some of the American officers against foreigners, he resigned his position in his regiment and volunteered as surgeon in the navy of the United States, only to be taken prisoner by the British and carried to New York. After being exchanged, he returned to Pennsylvania; was made ensign in a company of the fourth regiment of that state, and lieutenant on the first of April, 1781. On the eighth of July following, General Irvine appointed him his aid. Upon Irvine taking command at Pittsburgh, he brought with him Lieutenant Rose; and, as above stated, when the expedition against Sandusky was planned, he was permitted by the general to accompany it. He still kept his secret, but Irvine ‘had had strong suspicions ever since first making his acquaintance, of his exalted character and station. He remained in the west until the return of the general from Fort Pitt, occasionally, as duty required, visiting Carlisle and Philadelphia. The troops under Irvine were paid off, for the last time, by him. In the fall of 1783, he was secretary to the council of censors of Pennsylvania, and in the spring of 1784 sailed for Europe, to return to his home, having received complete immunity from his sovereign. Before leaving he revealed his real history to Irvine. Pennsylvania rewarded him in land for his valuable services. Afterward, he held an office of honor under the emperor of Russia. He was born in 1753 and died in Rival June 26, 1829.
[18] Dr. John Knight. He was born in Scotland in the year 1751. He subsequently, in England, gained some knowledge of medicine. He came to America in 1773. Migrating to the west, he enlisted in 1776, as a private in the thirteenth Virginia regiment,— afterward the ninth, but at date of the above letter, the seventh, of which John Gibson was colonel. Soon after enlisting, he was made sergeant, and was in the battles of Brandywine, Germantown, and other engagements. On the ninth of August, 1778, he was appointed surgeon’s mate of his regiment, which office he held at the time he was spared by Irvine to go upon the Sandusky expedition. He continued his duties as surgeon’s mate until the close of the war. On the fourteenth of October, 1784, he married Polly Stephenson, daughter of Richard Stephenson, half brother of Colonel William Crawford. He subsequently moved to Shelby county, Kentucky, where he died on the twelfth of March, 1838, the father of ten children.

Washington-Irvine Correspondence by Butterfield, pages 118-119.
[19] The “instructions” afterward sent by Irvine were as follow:
“FORT PITT, May 14, 1782.
“To the officer who will be appointed to command a detachment of volunteer militia, on an expedition against the Indian town at or near Sandusky.
“SIR — When an officer is detached, though he may have general instructions, yet much must depend on his own prudence. On such an expedition as the present, where a variety of unexpected events may take place, I think it would be vain to attempt being particular. In general, however, it is incumbent on me to give such ideas as I think may be of use.
“The object of your command is to destroy with fire and sword (if practicable) the Indian town and settlements a~ Sandusky, by which we hope to give ease and safety to the inhabitants of this country; but if impracticable, then you will doubtless perform such other services in your power as will, in their consequences, have a tendency to answer this great end.
“Previous to taking up your line of march, it will be highly expedient that all matters respecting rank or command should be well determined and clearly understood, as far at least as first, second and third. This precaution, in case of accident or misfortune, may be of great importance. Indeed, I think whatever rank or grade may be fixed on to have commands, their relativa rank should be determined. And as it is indispensably necessary that subordination and discipline should be kept up, the whole ought to understand that, notwithstanding they are volunteers, yet by this tour they are to get credit for it in their tours of militia duty; and that for this and other good reasons, they must, while out on this duty, consider themselves, to all intents, subject to the militia law and regulations for the government of the militia when in actual service.
“Your best chance for success will be, if possible, to effect a surprise; and though this will be difficult, yet, by forced and rapid marches, it may, in a gTeat degree, be accomplished. I am clearly of opinion that you should regulate your last day’s march so as to reach the town about dawn of day or a little before, and that the march of this day should be s long as can well be performed.
“I need scarcely mention to so virtuous and disinterested a set of men as you will have the honor to command, that, th~gh the main object at present is for the purposes above set forth, viz., the protection of this country, yet you are to consider yourselves as acting in behalf and for the interest of the United States. That, of course, it will be incumbent on you especially who will have the command, and on every individual, to act, in every instance, in such a manner as will reflect honor on, and add reputation to, the American arms — always having in view the law of arms, of nations, or independent states.
“Should any prison~rs, British, or in the service or pay of Britain or their allies, faH into your hands — if it should prove inconvenient for you to bring them off, you will, nevertheless, take special care to liberate them on parole, in such a manner as to insure liberty for an equal number of our people in their hands. There are individuals, however, who, I think should be brought off at all events, should the fortune of war throw them into your hands. I mean such as have deserted to the enemy since the declaration of independence.
“On your return, whatever your success may be, you will please to make report to me. I very sincerely wish you success; and am. dear sir, your
obedient servant, W. Irvine
The following extract from a letter written by Irvine to John Lyon more than seventeen years after these instructions were sent, is confirmatory of them:
“Colonel Crawford was on the continental establishment of the Virginia line. The troops under his command, at the time he fell, were volunteer militia, part Virginians and part Pennsylvanians, and a few continental officers whom I sent to assist him. All the troops both regulars and militia in that quarter, were at that time under my orders. In looking over my instructions to the officer who should be appointed to command that expedition — the volunteers were allowed to chose one, and they elected Colonel Crawford—I find he was enjoined to reg~ilate rank of officers before he took up his line of march, and to impress on their minds that the whole must from the moment they marched be in all respects subject to the rules and articles
of war for the regular troops.”
