Isaiah Carpenter and James Breckinridge were accused of rioting by the New Yorkers who claimed that they had taken land under the New Hampshire grant, within the limits of New York territory; and further, that they had taken up arms to fight for the land as a part of Bennington. This accusation was not true; they were within the limits of Bennington. It arose from the fact that they were loyal to the proposed government of Vermont. It was about the year 1777.

Isaiah Carpenter was one of the first settlers of Salisbury, under the New Hampshire grant; he was a conspicuous character in the difficulties between the "Green Mountain Boys" and the "Yorkers." Mr. Carpenter was a near neighbor of Judge Olin. The "Yorkers" drove Carpenter from his cabin on a few acres of
clearing, and put one of their grantees in possession. One day as the "Yorker" was chopping a tree there was a report, and a ball whistled by his head; he supposing that it was some hunter, kept on chopping; in a few moments there was another report, and a second bullet struck the tree a few inches above his head. He left for parts unknown, immediately, and Carpenter had full possession. A short time after this, Judge Olin shot a steer which he was killing for family use; Carpenter, hearing the report, took his musket and came running down to Judge
Olin's inquiring "Where are the Yorkers?"

It is said by members of the family that he joined the Revolutionary forces and was aid to Gen. Warren.

They moved to Mansfield, Conn. He probably moved to Stafford, Conn. but there was not any of the family there in 1840.
