Col. John Paulding of Mount Pleasant: "I agree with Mr. Baylies in the above account. The spot where Andre was taken and where the three were concealed, was about 130 feet south of Major André's brook and west of the road. This is what I always heard from the Paulding family. John Paulding the Captor was my father's brother. George W. Paulding (son of the captor and elder brother of Capt. Hiram Paulding of the navy) is a baus carpenter in New York."
