Pastor's conduct in the discipline of his Church, hath had such an evil tendency, it hath weaned our affections from him, and in a great measure spoilt his usefulness torwards, us: further, his common conduct seemeth to us to be bery extraordinary in setting neighbors against neighbors, which keeps us in a fire of contention.

Capt. John Elden seems to have held command of the Province Fort, so called, in Narragansett, No. 1 in about 1749. It is related that while the families of the early inhabitants were living in the garrison for security while the men were absent for a day and night, a runner brought news that the enemy was in the neighborhood. But Mrs. Elden, the captain's wife, a woman who showed heroism on more than one occasion, became master, or mistress, of the situation. She donned her absent husband's uniform, seized a sword, and with voice changed to a masculine tone, marshaled the other women, also arrayed in male attire and armed with muskets, about the fort as if preparing to resist an attack. This was kept up during the night and part of the succeeding day until the "relief guard" returned and the male persuasion took charge of the garrison. Some of the first children born in the plantations on the Saco had their advent within these primitive forts, and the stirring events with which they were associated in childhood were related to their grandchildren at the fireside on many a winder evening.
