Letter from Robert Stockton to Moore Furman. Acknowledging his favor by Mr. Yard. Enemy landed at Sandy Point, October 26, 1779, at midnight; marched to Quibbletown, destroyed stores there, went to Rariton and destroyed boats and the Dutch church in that place, then to Millstone; released ten prisoners from gaol and set fire to courthouse. Near Brunswick, encountered party of our people, who killed their commander's horse and took him prisoner. The rest of the enemy went off towards South Amboy, where they fell in with Captain Voorhees, who was obliged to surrender; "notwithstanding, the infernal rascals cut him to pieces."; American Philosophical Society
