Oliver participated in that historic march to Quebec through the Maine wilderness in 1775. Oliver fought bravely but the military plan was ill conceived and Oliver along with many of his fellow soldiers was taken prisoner. Their leader, Colonel Benedict Arnold, was wounded in the foot and spent most of the battle in a makeshift hospital. Oliver spent nine moths in captivity trying to keep his unit from starving. Part of the time he was in chains as punishment for leading an attempted escape.
