Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Relations Between Bermuda and the American Colonies During the Revolutionary War
It is a matter of record that he was sent to Bermuda (june, just before the event, and that he did not return to Virginia till Nov., 17 7 6. So it would appear that he had other objects in charge beyond the securing of the gunpowder. I do not find that he was accused of having a hand in it at that time. While in Bermuda he was admitted to the local bar.
It is probable that the American sailors did the actual work of removing the gunpowder, and that some of the inhabitants of Ber muda may have acted as guides and as pilots for the boats, in that night adventure.
