SECOND BATTALION
"In the year 1758, the expedition against Fort Du Quesne, now Pittsburg, was
undertaken, and our Battalion joined the British army at Carlisle. At this
time Capt Lloyd had been promoted to the rank of Lieut Colonel, but retained
his company of which I had the command as Capt Lieut, and was left some time
in command of the garrison at Shippensburg. On my marching from thence with a
brigade of wagons under my charge, at Chamber's about eleven miles from
Shippensburg, the men mutinied, and were preparing to march, but by my
reasoning with them and at the same time threatening them, the most of them
consented to resume their march to Fort Loudon, where Lieut Scott was with
eight or ten months' pay. While the army lay at Ligonier, we were attacked by
a body of French and Indians, and I was wounded in the foot by a spent ball.
In November of this year (Nov 25), the Army took possession of Fort Duquesne,
under the command of General Forbes; a poor emaciated old man, who, for the
most part of our march was obliged to be carried in a horse litter. In the
year 1759, I was stationed at Ligonier, and had 25 men picked out of the two
battalions under my command, & c"-Miles' manuscript

A List of the Officers of tne Pennsylvania regiment,
Commanded by the Honorable J. Penn, Esqr, 1764
The officers of this regiment who had served under Col Bouquet had, in 1764,
at Bedford, made a written agreement to apply for a body of land; accordingly
on the 30th of April 1765, through a committee they made application to the
Proprietors for a body of land within the Province. They proposed "to embody
themselves in a compact settlement on some good land at some distance from the
inhabited part of the Province where, by their industry, they might procure a
comfortable subsistence for themselves, and by their arms, union and increase,
become a powerful barrier to the Province." They further represented that the
land thus far purchased from the Indians did not afford any situation
convenient for their purposes; but the confluence of the two branches of the
Susquehanna at Shamokin, (Sunbury now) did, and they therefore prayed that the
Proprietors to make a purchase and to grant them forty thousand acres of arable
land on the West Branch of the Susquehanna. The purchase was made by Thomas and
Richard Penn at Fort Stanwix (now Rome, New York) on the 5th of November 1768.
On the 3rd of February, 1769, the committee obtained an order allowing them to
take up twenty-four thousand acres to be divided among them in district surveys
on the waters of the West Branch. In March, 1769, Samuel Maclay, for William
Maclay, surveyed eight thousand acres of the grant in Buffalo Valley (now Union
County); 6,096 acres were surveyed on Forks and on Chillisquaque creek, and
9,904 remained, the greater part of which was surveyed for them on Bald Eagle
creek, commencing a short distance above the mouth, and running up to the town
of Howard, in Centre county. It is not known that any of these officers settled
upon their tracts except Lieut James Hays, who lived and died upon his location,
and is buried in the Hays graveyard at Beech Creek, Clinton county. Major de
Haas' son moved upon his land early in the present century, and his descendants
are very numerous both in Clinton and Centre counties.
