PREFACE.
< • « ^ > — ■—
A knowledge of the British, no less than of
the American participants in Burgoyne's cam-
paign, being necessary to the proper understand-
ing of that great event, has led me to investigate
the personnel of Burgoyne's army, and to annotate
the text far more fully than had, at first, been in-
tended. No reference in the notes has been
made to characters like Stark, Schuyler, Heath,
Warner, Morgan, Lord Stirling, etc., as they are
presumed to be familiar to the American reader ;
and though Dr. O'Callaghan, in Burgoyne's
Orderly Book, has sketched, with more or less
fullness, some of the British officers annotated in
the following pages, yet, in nearly, if not quite,
every instance, some facts have been added to
those the Doctor has given ; hence, for complete-
ness, notes on such personages have not been ex-
cluded from this volume. So little is known of
Burgoyne's Canadian and Provincial officers, and
especially of the leader of Burgoyne's Indians,
that no pains have been spared to glean all possi-
ble information in regard to them. Notwith-
/
X Preface.
standing much has been written relating to
Burgoyne, yet no biographer has been sufficiently
precise to give the exact date of his birth, or to
inform us of the facts on which rests the scandal
in regard to his parentage, so that the reader can
judge for himself of the merits of the case.
The looseness which has characterized other
portions of the various memoirs of this offi-
cer's life and character, accounts for so full a
sketch of Burgoyne in the notes. As various
writers have confused bearers of the same name
with some of Burgoyne's officers, brief sketches
of a number of such contemporaries have been
given, in order to aid, as far as may be, in ob-
viating such confusion hereafter.
Though writing of Englishmen, and others,
engaged in a cause in which my proclivities are
all against them, as my grandfather and one of
his brothers were officers in the Rhode Island
Line, and another brother was a brigade chaplain
in the Pennsylvania Line, on the patriot side
during the Revolutionary War, yet I have striven
to write as one without prejudice, both in stating
facts without coloring, and in drawing conclu-
sions without improper bias.
Preface, xi
If I have gone too much into artillery details,
it must be borne in mind that Lieut. Hadden was
an artillery officer ; and, it may- be, the fact that
I served as first -lieutenant, captain, and major, in
the Third Rhode Island Heavy ;Artillery during
the early years of our late civil war, has whetted
my interest in such matters to a degree not shared
by the majority of readers. My aim has been,
editorially, to write for historical students, more
than for the general reader ; hence no dates and
no precision of statement of any fact have been
omitted, merely to add to rhetorical effect.
The Orders, contained in the latter part of this*
work, reflect much light upon Burgoyne's cam-
paign, and, consequently, upon Hadden's Journal ;
since Orders issued in 1776, in regard to the
formation and regulations of the army in Canada,
applied very largely to the troops under Burgoyne
the next year.
Calendars for the years 1776 and 1777, have
been inserted in the introductory matter, so that
readers desiring to refer to them, may readily do
so ; the table of * Contents ' showing exactly
where they may be found.
Save in a very few cases, I have made no refer-
ence in the notes to the topography of the
xii Preface,
country, as others personally familiar with it,
have fully and clearly explained it ; far more so,
than I could hope to do.
The authorities for the editor's work have been
intended to be given as fully as possible, as, in
historical writing, the importance of furnishing
them is thoroughly realized ; and if, in any case,
it shall be found that they have been omitted,
it is due solely to oversight, as some of the
notes were originally written without noting the
authorities at the time, thus necessitating their
subsequent addition. Where the authorities for
a note are few, or where they are so intermingled
that it would be well nigh impossible to refer to
them accurately, save in mass, they have been
inserted at the end without special reference to
them in the body of the note. To save space and
expense the name of every volume of authority
referred to, has been lettered in the table of
* Authorities,' and subsequent refereMces are to the
letters, and not to the name of the volume ; the
table of •' Authorities ' serving as a key. As but
comparatively few readers will care for the
authorities, while those who do, will care for
them very much, and as the notes have expanded
far beyond the bounds originally set for them.
Preface. xiii
making it necessary to resort to some method to
keep the volume within reasonable limits, it is
hoped that this device for economizing space
will cause but little inconvenience.
I return my heartiest thanks to Mr. William
L. Stone, of Jersey City, for his unfailing interest
in this work, as well as for much valuable aid
and counsel. I am also under obligations to
Gen. J. Watts de Peyster, and Dr. Thomas
Addis Emmet, of New York ; Hon. Wins-
low C. Watson, of Port Kent, N. Y. ; Dr. A.
W. Holden, of Glens Falls, N. Y. ; J. M. Le
Moine, Esq., President of the Literary and Anti-
quarian Society of Quebec ; Major L. A. Huguet-
Latour, and the Abbe Verreau of Montreal ; and
the Abbe Tanguay, of Ottawa, Canada. For the
use of valuable manuscripts I am indebted to
many parties ; and especially to the Massachu-
setts Historical Society, for the Heath Papers,
and the Military Papers of Capt. Moses Green-
leaf; to the New York Historical Society, for
the Gates Papers; to the American Antiquarian
Society, of Worcester, Massachusetts, for various
Order and Letter Books ; and to the Department
of Agriculture of the Dominion of Canada, for
the Haldimand Papers. In this latter connection
xiv Preface,
I cannot refrain from referring to the unwearied
zeal and unfailing courtesy of Mr. Douglas
Brymner, of Ottawa, the Archivist of the Do-
minion of Canada, in affording me the fullest
and most satisfactory use of the Haldimand
Papers, and the other manuscripts confided to
his charge. Would that all public officials in
custody of valuable manuscripts, might take a
lesson from him. To these and to various others,
too numerous to mention, who have been of ser-
vice to me in preparing this work, I return my
most grateful acknowledgments. It would,
indeed, be an omission, not to specially com-
mend the typographical excellence displayed by
the Messrs. Munsell in this work; — surely,
none of its faults can justly be attributed to
them.
The limits of an ordinary preface are far too
circumscribed to admit of many matters it has
seemed desirable to advert to, in editing a work
of this character ; hence the reader is referred to
An Explanatory Chapter, by the Editor, for infor-
mation, that, but for the space it requires, would
have been included in the so-called preface.

PREFACE.
< • « ^ > — ■—
A knowledge of the British, no less than of
the American participants in Burgoyne's cam-
paign, being necessary to the proper understand-
ing of that great event, has led me to investigate
the personnel of Burgoyne's army, and to annotate
the text far more fully than had, at first, been in-
tended. No reference in the notes has been
made to characters like Stark, Schuyler, Heath,
Warner, Morgan, Lord Stirling, etc., as they are
presumed to be familiar to the American reader ;
and though Dr. O'Callaghan, in Burgoyne's
Orderly Book, has sketched, with more or less
fullness, some of the British officers annotated in
the following pages, yet, in nearly, if not quite,
every instance, some facts have been added to
those the Doctor has given ; hence, for complete-
ness, notes on such personages have not been ex-
cluded from this volume. So little is known of
Burgoyne's Canadian and Provincial officers, and
especially of the leader of Burgoyne's Indians,
that no pains have been spared to glean all possi-
ble information in regard to them. Notwith-
/
X Preface.
standing much has been written relating to
Burgoyne, yet no biographer has been sufficiently
precise to give the exact date of his birth, or to
inform us of the facts on which rests the scandal
in regard to his parentage, so that the reader can
judge for himself of the merits of the case.
The looseness which has characterized other
portions of the various memoirs of this offi-
cer's life and character, accounts for so full a
sketch of Burgoyne in the notes. As various
writers have confused bearers of the same name
with some of Burgoyne's officers, brief sketches
of a number of such contemporaries have been
given, in order to aid, as far as may be, in ob-
viating such confusion hereafter.
Though writing of Englishmen, and others,
engaged in a cause in which my proclivities are
all against them, as my grandfather and one of
his brothers were officers in the Rhode Island
Line, and another brother was a brigade chaplain
in the Pennsylvania Line, on the patriot side
during the Revolutionary War, yet I have striven
to write as one without prejudice, both in stating
facts without coloring, and in drawing conclu-
sions without improper bias.
Preface, xi
If I have gone too much into artillery details,
it must be borne in mind that Lieut. Hadden was
an artillery officer ; and, it may- be, the fact that
I served as first -lieutenant, captain, and major, in
the Third Rhode Island Heavy ;Artillery during
the early years of our late civil war, has whetted
my interest in such matters to a degree not shared
by the majority of readers. My aim has been,
editorially, to write for historical students, more
than for the general reader ; hence no dates and
no precision of statement of any fact have been
omitted, merely to add to rhetorical effect.
The Orders, contained in the latter part of this*
work, reflect much light upon Burgoyne's cam-
paign, and, consequently, upon Hadden's Journal ;
since Orders issued in 1776, in regard to the
formation and regulations of the army in Canada,
applied very largely to the troops under Burgoyne
the next year.
Calendars for the years 1776 and 1777, have
been inserted in the introductory matter, so that
readers desiring to refer to them, may readily do
so ; the table of * Contents ' showing exactly
where they may be found.
Save in a very few cases, I have made no refer-
ence in the notes to the topography of the
xii Preface,
country, as others personally familiar with it,
have fully and clearly explained it ; far more so,
than I could hope to do.
The authorities for the editor's work have been
intended to be given as fully as possible, as, in
historical writing, the importance of furnishing
them is thoroughly realized ; and if, in any case,
it shall be found that they have been omitted,
it is due solely to oversight, as some of the
notes were originally written without noting the
authorities at the time, thus necessitating their
subsequent addition. Where the authorities for
a note are few, or where they are so intermingled
that it would be well nigh impossible to refer to
them accurately, save in mass, they have been
inserted at the end without special reference to
them in the body of the note. To save space and
expense the name of every volume of authority
referred to, has been lettered in the table of
* Authorities,' and subsequent refereMces are to the
letters, and not to the name of the volume ; the
table of •' Authorities ' serving as a key. As but
comparatively few readers will care for the
authorities, while those who do, will care for
them very much, and as the notes have expanded
far beyond the bounds originally set for them.
Preface. xiii
making it necessary to resort to some method to
keep the volume within reasonable limits, it is
hoped that this device for economizing space
will cause but little inconvenience.
I return my heartiest thanks to Mr. William
L. Stone, of Jersey City, for his unfailing interest
in this work, as well as for much valuable aid
and counsel. I am also under obligations to
Gen. J. Watts de Peyster, and Dr. Thomas
Addis Emmet, of New York ; Hon. Wins-
low C. Watson, of Port Kent, N. Y. ; Dr. A.
W. Holden, of Glens Falls, N. Y. ; J. M. Le
Moine, Esq., President of the Literary and Anti-
quarian Society of Quebec ; Major L. A. Huguet-
Latour, and the Abbe Verreau of Montreal ; and
the Abbe Tanguay, of Ottawa, Canada. For the
use of valuable manuscripts I am indebted to
many parties ; and especially to the Massachu-
setts Historical Society, for the Heath Papers,
and the Military Papers of Capt. Moses Green-
leaf; to the New York Historical Society, for
the Gates Papers; to the American Antiquarian
Society, of Worcester, Massachusetts, for various
Order and Letter Books ; and to the Department
of Agriculture of the Dominion of Canada, for
the Haldimand Papers. In this latter connection
xiv Preface,
I cannot refrain from referring to the unwearied
zeal and unfailing courtesy of Mr. Douglas
Brymner, of Ottawa, the Archivist of the Do-
minion of Canada, in affording me the fullest
and most satisfactory use of the Haldimand
Papers, and the other manuscripts confided to
his charge. Would that all public officials in
custody of valuable manuscripts, might take a
lesson from him. To these and to various others,
too numerous to mention, who have been of ser-
vice to me in preparing this work, I return my
most grateful acknowledgments. It would,
indeed, be an omission, not to specially com-
mend the typographical excellence displayed by
the Messrs. Munsell in this work; — surely,
none of its faults can justly be attributed to
them.
The limits of an ordinary preface are far too
circumscribed to admit of many matters it has
seemed desirable to advert to, in editing a work
of this character ; hence the reader is referred to
An Explanatory Chapter, by the Editor, for infor-
mation, that, but for the space it requires, would
have been included in the so-called preface.
