What are 'night rangers'?
Posted by: D Mackey (ID *****1141) Date: May 15, 2009 at 19:13:46

In researching New York revolutionary soldier Jonathan Purdy, I found in his pension application that he recalled "I then enlisted for four months in the night rangers under my former Capt. Jonathan H. Pawling." Can anyone tell me what a night ranger is, or point me to a likely source for this information?
