"Not so, " replied the officer. "We have taken this house for ours. " "Well, " answered Mother, "the house is mine and I must have some place for my children. " The officer was apparently struck with her determined manner; they compromised. Mother was allowed one part of the house, while the British used the other part. Having gained this point Mother set about making herself as comfortable as she could, under the circumstances.
"Where are my cows?" asked she.
"You have no cows, " replied the E...nglishman.
"No cows? Why, how am I to feed my children without cows or chickens?" All this time Maria, the eldest daughter, stood modestly by her mother's side. Perhaps her sweet face had already touched the Englishman's heart, for he said, "If you can describe one cow you can have it for your own use. " Mother promptly described the best cow and also claimed the chickens in the same way. Be it said, to the credit of the British Officer, that she was always treated with great respect. The Lord has given us all fathers, some brothers, some have husbands, so we naturally ask "Where was the man?" As I said, father was Captain in the Militia and after the Battle of Long Island and the occupation of the Island by the British, father, whose name was Adrian Van Brunt, with his neighbor, were compelled either to take the oath of allegiance to the King, to leave the country, or to suffer the pains and penalties of a refusal.
