Miss Hannah B--chcr-ft

In beating up for recruits, Captain R—d—n fell in the way of this sprightly amazonian girl, who immediately enlisted a volunteer in his service; he soon learnt her to perform all her manoeuvres in a masterly manner, particularly bush-fighting under cover, which she will do in any position the musquet can be placed in, so as to do the desired execution; nor does she recoil if ever so deeply loaded; her advances and retreats are performed in a very engaging manner, and she never unloads a piece without having the balls ready for another charge; (as to firing a piece, that she was never known to do.) The Captain is at present very fond of her, and keeps her very close; for her amorous disposition is such, that he knows she will transgress if she can; nor is he deceived, a pretty smart fellow, (as she calls it) with three guineas in his pocket, is sufficient to make her risqué the displeasure of her keeper, still he need not be dissatisfied, as she always is ready and willing to answer any demands it is in his power to make. She is of a fair complexion, fine blue eyes, of the middling stature, not yet eighteen, and possesses in her manner a certain je ne scai quoi, that makes her a very desirable piece, which she is so well convinced of, that she will not suffer the smallest prelude to enjoyment to take place, without a thorough satisfaction of being in company with a gentleman of honour, liberality and secrecy.
