As the steamer proceeded down (Belleisle) Bay, the reporter was told by one of the passengers how he had heard from Mary BRITTAIN wife of William BRITTAIN, one of the early loyalist settlers of Tennant's Cove, of her experience previous to their departure from the revolted colonies. She had walked in blood to her ankles and had been stripped to her waist before a regiment of soldiers to compel her to disclose the place where her husband was hiding.
