Mess: Nathaniel Baylies, Pierre Wildey (Supr.) and Martin Smith, all of Tarrytown, well know. &c When the American army lay at White Plains, General Schuyler's Headquarters were at my grandfather's (Nicholas Storms) now owned by Jonathan Baylies, and situated in the fields about one mile from my house. A lane running in a westerly direction leads to it from the Saw Mill river road. An old black woman, owned by Mr Storms, used to tell me of the style in which General Schuyler dressed and powdered his hair. &c Storms' Wood, adjoining the road where Hopkins was ambushed in July 30th. 1774, was part of Mr Storms' farm.
