Mem. a Jacob Romer (father of Captain John) lived on the White Plains and Tarrytown road about a quarter of a mile from that road and one and a half miles from the Post -- road. The Post -- road at Tarrytown then ran a little West of the present road. André was stopped and taken at the little rivulet above mentioned. His captors then conducted him to the great white-wood-tree where (under which) they searched him and discovered the papers. The tree stood a hundred or a hundred and fifty yards South of the said rivulet called Clark's Kill.
