I belonged to the guard that was watching the road near Roswell's corner about two miles below Clark's corner, when the British went up to burn Crompond in 1779. We hid. It was a dark night.

Colonel Armand lay with his legion once or twice at Jacob Ryder's in Ossining about seven miles from Tarrytown."
