There was a British vessel of war frozen up (1779-'80?) opposite my brother's above (121st Str. Opposite north end of the Island). I remember Morris's Old Mill on the Mill Brook very well. It must have stood, I think, about a quarter of a mile south east of the spot where the Boston Post road crosses Mill Brook near James Morris's gate. There are no remains of forts or prisons on Randall's Island, and never heard of there having been any.

When Colonel Jackson made his attack La Briene [X] must have lain op- -posite Ward's Island or opposite the Channel which separates it from Randall's Island. There is no stream of water between Mill Brook and the Bronx river. I don't know whether or not Mrs. Mary Ward of Wards Island be living at the present time.
