We got our
breakfasts; then the Col. gave orders to put off for Ticondaroga. Got there
about three oclock P. M. & landed, & the Colo went with a
small escort to the fort & returnd; gave orders for the troops to march
& incamp at the saw mill about a mile from ye landing, which was
accordingly done; here all the officers that had never been on this land had to
pay their entrance.
