He was captured and carried into Canada, and returned with other New Hampshire men in Captain Drake's boat, the schooner Success, from Quebec to Boston, in 1749. Some years after, the Council and Assembly of the Province of New Hampshire allowed James Clements and others, ninety-seven pounds, twelve shillings and ten pence in all as a recompense for their suffering and loss.
