"Philada., Dec'r. 81, 1781.
"Deab Sib "... I have sent by the return of the waggon one Barrel of Ma- deira Wine conP 25 Gallons. Col. Marshall chose the Pipe for General Washington, Col. Pettit, Col. Biddle, and yourself, and I hope it will prove to your satisfaction. I am with great Esteem "Your friend and humble Serv* " Owen Biddle.
" To Col. Bobt. L. Hooper, Jb.
"D.Q.M.G.,Eaaton." Digitized by VjOOQIC 326 Owen Biddle.
In 1782 the war was practically over, and during its con- tinuance Mr. Bid
...dle had suffered much thereby in estate.
Three of his vessels .had been captured and destroyed by the enemy, and his losses otherwise appear to have been large. 1 He had a family consisting of a wife and seven children ; the eldest, a daughter, being then twenty-two years of age.
These were not the days of large pensions. He was com- pelled to make an assignment for the benefit of his credi- tors, which he did, January 8, 1783, to James Bringhurst, Richard Wells, and John Field. 2 His property proved more than sufficient to satisfy his creditors, and after distribution had been made a small surplus remained.
