Waterbury's Guard of nine months or [Year's] men was several times times [taken] at Titus's Bridge by the Refugees.

Colonel Humphreys was a noble looking man and a good officer.

When Colonel Wells was taken at Horton Reynolds's, but very few, if any, of his men were killed. Rivington's statement of fifteen killed must be a mistake.

[marg: 1846. November 24th.] Benjamin Brush: "Theall and his horse were both killed on the spot. After crossing the pond, they (White's detachment) took a horse to Capt [Pope] who was a fleshyman, and tired with the long march. Heard, Peyton, Carr, a trumpeter, and about seven men remained behind as a

rear guard. Heard and Peyton turned suddenly -- one, to the right, and the other to the left; and Peyton, with a back hand blow killed one dead. -- (Peyton was a very tall man -- Heard not much above the middle size, but strongly, actively, and elegantly form =ed.] Heard killed the other who hung sometime by the stirrups. -- Gaines was taken about a mile north of Stanwich Church, as Dr. Betts was Belcher lived then in North Street at Mr. Norton Reynold's. -- Colonel Mead was taken prisoner, and Captain Sylvanus Mead of the 9 months men was also taken by Captain Frink at Clapboard Ridge west of North Street. -- (Major Fitch commanded the whale boat man. -- Black rate was not known or enforced in Connecticut, I think, but they confiscated (when folks went below) their property.
