"He was a soldier in the French and Indian war. A few days previous to the battle of Lexington he distinguished himself as captain of a militia company by preventing the holding of a court by the English officers in the Court House at Westminster. He was a soldier at Quebec and at Bennington and a friend and kinsman of Ethan Allen. He was called an Ethan Allen on a smaller scale, and during the boundary controversy between the states it is said that he led the people on the east side of the Green Mountains as Ethan Allen did on the west side."
