{"value"=>"Deposition showing that he served as a captain of militia with part of Col. Tynes's regiment on an expedition under Maj. Weymss [Wemyss], down Black and up Pedee rivers; all the negroes taken on that expedition were either captured by the troops or came in of their own accord; Col. Mills, of the Cheraw militia, in no wise meddled with any negroes or other property of the rebels, but the captured negroes were sent south in his charge; the negroes behaved badly on the way, and Col. Mills proposed sending back Mr. Wilds to pay the people who had supplied provisions; one hundred of the negroes were given to Col. Mills by Maj. Weymss to indemnify him for losses by rebel plunderers."}
