Story
The story is told that during a critical period of the Revolution he returned from the session of the General Assembly one Saturday to work for the soldiers. His daughter, Priscilla, moulded bullets from the lead clock weights, and his son, Joseph, made and baked biscuits - both on the Sabbath. Sand bags were substituted for lead in the family clock, and on Monday he returned to his post of duty, his saddle bags balanced on the one side with food for the soldiers, and on the other with bullets to be used against their enemies.
