" — " When the British landed at Moreton's Point, the detachment under Knowlton, from Putnam's regiment, was ordered by the General to take post at a rail fence on the left of the breastwork. This was promptly executed. Each man was furnished with a pound of powder and forty-eight balls. No corps was posted at the rail fence, save our own, at the time the fire began. 1 ' 11 he had the official and authorized command^ may be diffic^'t to prove by direct evidence. The orderly- book of General War...d is silent on the subject. Put- nam was a very active as well as brave officer, and had seen much military service in a former war be- tween France and England. Colonel Gridley was also with the detachment, and acted as engineer.
This detachment of provincial troops proceeded to the peninsula of Charlestown late in the evening of the 16th of June. They paused on Bunker Hill ; but t Different opinions have prevailed on this point. But on comparing all the circumstances and transactions of the occasion, by recollecting the con- duct of Putnam, as stated by several persons in the battle, and by other citizens who were on Charlestown heights as volunteers, and by assuming that such an important enterprise would not have been undertaken by ad- vice of the Council of War or Committee of Safety, without some system (al- though the short time there was to make arrangement, and the imperfect organization of the Ameiican troops prevented it being entirely regular and complete, ) it will appear that he was, in fact, the commander in chief.
