It was in this room that the brave Captain Rowe expired in the arms of his bride- elect, and his ghost is said still to haunt it on the anniver- sary of his death. Captain Rowe, of the Pruschank Tagers, was in the habit of making a daily tour from King's Bridge round by Mile Square, 2 for the purpose of rec- onnoitering. He was on his last tour of duty, having resigned his commission for the purpose of marrying Eli- zabeth Fowler, of Harlem. As he was passing with a company of light dragoons, h...e was suddenly fired on by three Americans of the water guard of Captain Pray's company, and fell from his horse mortally wounded.
Word was sent to St. John's Rectory, near at hand, for a conveyance to remove the wounded officer. The use of a horse and gig was secured, and the dying man was taken to the van Cortlandt House. In the meantime an express had been sent to Miss Fowler, who, accompanied by her mother, hastened to the side of her dying lover, who had just strength enough to greet her, and then fell back in her arms dead.
