DeLancey's Head quarters during part of the war were at Madam Morris's house where Gouverneur Morris's house now stands. In July 1781, General Lincoln, or rather Captain Jonathan and Lawrence landed in the farm of Isaac (Lawrence?) about two miles north of King's bridge where Thomas Ludlow now lives, and marched to Tetard's hill where a severe skirmish ensued. Scannell's brigade [page break] 33. [margin: PARTS] was piloted by William Green from Hoghill down to General Lincoln, and his (Green's) horse was shot on Hoghill, by Emmerich's party who were that night. Emmerich gained the bank of the river at Phillip's's houses, where he probably had staid all night, and retreated to Spitend. [Spuyten Duyvel] Creek. John Cook, tavern keeper, at Paparinimo, and John Corbie of the city of New York spiked the cannon at or near Fort Independence. (Probably the second party mentioned by the prisoner Haines Jr.) General Oliver de Lancey's house which was burnt stood, I think, near the French Tanneries and a little south of them, and near the White Fort being on the banks of the river. Colonel Hatfield commanded the party that pursued Captain Daniel Williams to Croton in '83. Seven or eight prisoners taken at the [page break] [margin: PARTS] time. Colonel Philipse was taken up the country as a loyalist, but broke his parole at the instigation of his wife, and left, I think, in the winter or fall of 1776 or 1777. It was the Fall of 1776. I think. Colonel Wurmb's Headquarters were at Frederick Van Courtland's after moving on the hill, about three years. His regiment was encamped on the same hill called (generally) Tippett's Hill. Frederick Van Courtland left and went up to the big house, when Wurmb took his house. The island of Paparinimo below the war belonged to Colonel Philipse, and was part of his manor.
