Advices from America in New York Gazette 1777
From Albany and Ticonderoga details reach New York of Carleton crossing lakes toward Crown Point with a sizable force. Reports describe Loyalist and rebel skirmishes, massing troops at Paramus, and seizures of munitions, with British naval prizes and ships taken to Halifax. Public sentiment favors government, while committees in Albany are blamed for coercive rule. Major General Tryon prepares encampments as provincial troops gain experience.
