In the French war he commanded a privateer, and distin- guished himself in two engagements in the West Indies. At the time of the Leislerian troubles he naturally sided with the Officers of the Crown and ...the British residents ; and, in the interests of the Province, kept his vessel in the Bay, in case it should be needed to defend the city against the French, For his services to the Pro- vince, the (xeneral Assembly of Njew York, on the recommendation of Governor Sloughter and Council, granted him, on the 14tli of May, 1691, the sum of £150.
