Of his early life, nothing is now known, except that he was a native of England, and that he came to North Carolina from the West Indies, pro bably from Barbadoes, with which isl and, there was then, frequent, perhaps established intercourse. Ite probably distinguished himself, soon after bis arrival, as he was an active aud con spicuous member of the Provincial Legialatores, tor y earl prior to the com mencement of the revolution. Without appearing to, make any exertion, he could carry an election, whenever he waa iaclioed , to engage in the public service, tn toe town oi vv umingion opposition to him was considered hope less, bucb wh his popularity, that his seat, since called Hilton,-waa in cluded, by a special act of Assembly, within the limits of the town, for the avowed purpose of qualifying him to represent ii in tne rrovmciai legisla ture. - , ' In 1774, he was one of that band of patriots, composed of Hmdenon, Burke, ffaw, Johnston, JIarvey, Aash, Iredell, Moot and others.

They had not remained long on that station before, they were compelled to engage, in sevctal skirmishes with the Indians, in 4 one of which these "three, with sixty-one others;-! were captured. Af ter, changing 'roasters several times. they at last found themselves in the power, of. the tribe called Flat Heads, by whom' they were taken to the Rocky mountains, and,, taught ..the red man's art of hunting and fashing.
