_Braddock and Orme._--Can you, or any of your correspondents, furnish me
(in reply to an inquiry made of me by the Historical Society of
Pennsylvania) with any information about the families of Braddock and Orme,
in relation to General Braddock, who commanded and was killed at the battle
of the Monongahela river; and to Orme, who, with Washington and Morris,
were his aides-de-camp in the melancholy and fatal engagement.
