I've removed a large chunk of this article that went into what I feel is too much detail about the Siege of Fort Ticonderoga; that information is better presented on the article on that specific subject. However, I've also edited and preserved what I removed in case there is consensus to include this detail.
("Apparently General St Clair claimed Fort Ticonderoga without much of a fight as the British were not there." If my edit is reverted, please at least cut this sentence. It implies that St. Clair was besieging the British, which is not the case; Fort Ticonderoga had been captured from the British two years earlier by the Green Mountain Boys, not St. Clair's forces.)

needs cleaning up: at present, it hopelessly confuses the various Nathan Hales. - Nunh-huh 22:37, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
|I have reverted the edits that confused the two differnt Nathan Hale's (maybe there are more?) of the Rev. War back to my stub with the info I could find. I thought by putting the link at the top to the spy Nathan Hale that they wouldn't get confused. Marc29th 23:12, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
As far as Nathan Hale the spy goes, his brother was Enoch Hale...I wonder if the fact that this Nathan had a brother by the same name can be verified... 71.233.255.175 ( talk) 07:45, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
