In December, 1747, the Assembly having made no provision for the defence of the City and Province, many of the inhabitants became alarmed and voluntarily entered into an association for defence. Companies were formed, which proceeded to choose officers, who, in turn, assembled and chose their superior officers, all being commissioned by the direction of the Provincial Council.Col. Records, vol. V, pages 172, 174. The result of this movement is detailed in the message of
Page 502
Anthony Palmer, President, to the Assembly dated May 17, 1748: "This Province which very lately was in a defenceless state, is now, through the zeal and activity of some, who have the love of their country sincerely at heart, rendered capable, with the blessing of god, of defending itself against the designs of our enemies, many thousands of the inhabitants having voluntarily entered into the most solemn engagements for that purpose; in consequence whereof, arms have been provided, and every one appears assiduous in qualifying himself for the defence of his country. They have likewise at considerable expense, erected batteries on the River, so situated and of such strength and weight of metal, as to render it very dangerous for an enemy to attempt the bringing any ships before the city. We have granted commissions to such general and other officers, as from time to time been presented to us for that purpose by the Association. Since these measure tend so manifestly, under God, for the security of this Province, the preservation of its metropolis, we think they justly deserve the assistance and encouragement of your House."--Votes of Assembly, vol. IV, page 72

OFFICERS OF THE PROVINCIAL SERVICE1755
In the fall of 1755, after General Braddock's defeat, there were several companies of militia sent into Northampton, and other frontier counties, to guard the inhabitants. Among the rest was one raised by Isaac Wayne, father of the late Gen. Wayne, with whom I entered as a volunteer, being then turned of sixteen years. Our company, with some others, rendezvoused at Easton, under the command of General Dr. Benjamin Franklin, for some days, until the arrival of a New England Gentleman, of the name of Clapham, who took upon him the command, and Dr. Franklin returned to Philadelphia. Soon afterwards we were ordered to a place called Canoteu Hatten (Gnadenhutten) a Moravian town and settlement, the inhabitants of which had all been murdered by the Indians. We erected a Stockade Fort there, to which was given the name of Fort Allen. The fall and winter were spent in erecting a number of Stockade forts on the frontier of Northampton county. In the month of February we were relieved and discharged. Col Samuel Miles' manuscript, dated Feb 4, 1802

Third Battalion
Third Battalion (known as Augusta Regiment) " In 1756, I again entered the
service as a Sergeant, in Capt. Thomas Lloyd's company, and at my arrival at John
Harris', (now Harrisburg) where the Battalion which was intended to march against
the Indians at Shamokin, rendezvoused under the immediate command of the Governor of the
Province, Robert Hunter Morris. I was selected to attend the Commander-in-Chief, as
Orderly Sergeant, in which capacity I continued until a day or two before the Governor
left, when he was pleased to give me an Ensign's commission. As soon as the troops
were collected and properly equipped, we marched for Shamokin. We crossed the
Susquehanna and marched on the west side thereof, until we came opposite to where the
town of Sunbury now stands, where we crossed over in Batteaux. In building the fort at
Shamokin, Capt. Levi Trump and myself had charge of the workmen, and after it was
finished, our Battalion remained there in garrison until the year 1758."
