Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, 1885, Vol. 9 In April, 1757, St. Clair was at New Brunswick for the benefit of his health, his wound being still troublesome. Early in June, however, he was again on the frontier of Pennsylvania, preparing for the advance of the detachment sent under the command of Stanwix for its protection. On this occasion he sent a memorial concerning the necessity of Opening and improving the roads in Cumberland County to Governor Denny, by whom it was referred to the Assembly, who appointed a committee to regulate the Highways, and bring in a bill to supply their defects if any should appear.2 The committee did nothing, and Stanwix could advance no farther than Carlisle.
