Between the skirmishes at Concord and Lexington and the battle of Bunker Hill on 31st of May, 1775, came the proper day for the 30 annual election of the House of Representatives for Massachusetts Colony, and the Third Provincial Congress met at Watertown in the meeting-house. The Committee of Safety met, and there was at the same time a convention of Congregational ministers. John Pitts was a member of the House, and they elected a board of Councilors, with James Bowdoin at the head. From this... time on, these ardent laborers for American independ- ence were at work night and day raising troops, supplying arms and materials of war, taking care of the thousands inside of the besieged city of Boston, corresponding with the other colonies and the General Continental Congress, and their friends in Europe. I find a letter of John Pitts (in Frothingham's Siege of Boston, p. 160) from Watertown July 20, 1775, to Samuel Adams, then at Phila- delphia. He says : " I find the letters in general from you and the rest of our friends complain of not having particular information rel- ative to the late battle of Charlestown.
