Honor certificates-- Harold + Grant, rash attempt by a handful of Ameri- cuns to join 'with the Canadians annexing Canada to the United States. ! Mrs. Van Amber's brother, Ambrose Blodgett, was at this time seventeen years of age. A great number. of ' his comrades who had joined in the expedition, persuaded him to go with them. So the boy stole away from home, apd was soon on his way to Canada with some 200 or 300 oth- ers from Jefferson county and vicin- ity. When hig mother discovered that Am-- brase had gone she was 'so nearly hearthroken that an older son, Orlin, a' young man of twenty-one; started out to bring his brother back; « ~ Wi Orlin' came up with 'the Am- erican troops, at Prescott, they were on the eve of a decisivé battle. Mr. Blodgett immediately made his way to tha commanding officer, Capt. Von Schultz, and asked that his "rother be allowed to return home .with him. The Americans were but a handful at best, and the captain refused to al-' low Ambrose to 'go unless his brother remained in his stead. Orlin had no interest in the expedition; indeed, he considered it a very rash and desper- ate undertaking. But, thinking that the danger would be less for him than for Ambrose, considering his age, he sent the latter home, promising to fol- low him after the battle. The skirmish which ensued is known as the Battle of the Windmill. The Americans were soon out to rout hy superior numbers, and fled to a near- by windmill for shelter. Four men, among whom was Orlin Blodgett, took refuge in a neighboring barn. The Brit- ish, supposing this barn to he filled with rebels set fire to it. Under cover of -the smoke, and snrrounded by the enemy on _all sides. Mr. Blodgett and two of his companions succeeded in esonhing tothe windmill, which was filled with Americans. There, after a desperate resistance, they , were . con- veyed to the fort at Kingston, Here, for several months, Mr. Blodgett lav awaiting his turn to die; Day bv dav his companions were led out and hanged, and his turn might come any day. In the meantime he was by no means idle. There were four case knives in the fort for the use of the captives, and these were passed around among the prisoners in turn. Now Mr. Blodgett was a fine mechanic, his ability in that line rising even to genius. Every time ho could get a knife he busind himself in 'carving bodking for his six sisters out of = the bones of his food. He had finished five of those, when one night his sentenve was read to him, to bo hanged the next morning at eight and a letter was sent to his mother, telling her of his fate. Rut the next morning when the iailers en- tered his cell, it was not to lead him to execution, but to read to him a reprieve from Cneen Victoria.
