" Messrs. Jacobus Bruyn and Charles Clinton in the months of April and May surveyed a road in the county of Ulster from Mini- sink to Rochester for the block-houses. They were guarded by a number of militia, under the command of Dirck Roosa, detached from the company commanded by Captain David Hays. In 1756 the Indians made an attack upon the house of Rodger Blameless in Ulster County, and murdered him and his family. Ensign Matthew Rea, with a detachment of militia, was sent in pur- suit of th...e marauders, but they escaped. It was not until the 23d day of July, 1756, that Lord Loudoun arrived in New York, commissioned as commander-in-chief of his Majesty's forces in America. He at once assumed the command. War had now been formally declared between England and France. Although it had for two years and upward existed in America, there had been no formal declaration thereof until 1756. The French had sent the Marquis de Montcalm as the com- mander-in-chief of their forces in America to succeed Dieskau, who was slain at the battle of Lake George.
