CHAPTER VI. John, a son of Philip Helmer, named as one of the pioneer settlers in Fonda's Bush, who remained there after his patriotic neighbors had removed to Johns- town, accompanied Sir John Johnson to Canada on his removal from Johnson Hall, early in the Revolu- tion. Returning to the settlement not long after, he became an object of suspicion; was arrested by the patriots, and confined at Johnstown. A sentinel w^as placed over him who was very green in the service, and improving a favorabl...e opportunity, the prisoner took occasion to praise his gun ; and closed his adula- tion by requesting permission to look at it, which was readily granted. The piece had hardly passed out of the young guard's possession, ere his authority was set at defiance, and its new owner took it to a place of retirement to inspect its merits; which were not fully decided upon until he had safely arrived in Canada. At a later period of the war, young Helmer again had the audacity to visit the Johnstown settlements.
