Note
In the hand of H. Stephens, Conway's aide-de-camp
In 1763, Conway was Col. of the First (or Royal) Regiment of Dragoons in Germany -- see Army list for that year
"Whereas Mr. Joungbloet of Anheim became bound to the states of Guilderland" for the payment of the expenses of th passage of British troops through the said province, Taylor is ordered to pay James Crauford 300 ducats "as a reward for his becoming security to the said Mr. Joungbloet."
Apparently a bond required before the troops would be allowed to return to England after the February 10th signing of the Peace of Paris.
Crauford may be the James Crauford who became a captain in the foot guards in 1766, though it appears he remained in London until 1794 -- see Valentine. The British establishment, 1760-1784.
