Among other occasions, he rendered good service during Tryon's Danbury raid. In 1777 he took the field twice outside of the State ; once in Dec, when Putnam made some demonstration with Meigs' regiment towards King's Bridge, and again in Sept.-Oct., during Burgoyne's cam- paign, when he led a large body of militia to Peekskill on the Hudson to reinforce Putnam. His reference to the surrender appears on p. 81. On p. 100 his capture by the Long Island Tories and subsequent exchange for Judge Jone...s are mentioned, and again, on p. 144, one of his letters, giving warning of the ap- proach of a fleet along the Sound, is given in full. His activity and vigilance were conspicuous up to the last moment. Upon the return of peace, Gen. Silliman resumed his profession of law, and was appointed State Attorney for Fairfield County. He died July 21, 1790, aged fifty-eight years. Several of his letters, as stated, are published in Vol. III., " L. I. Historical Soc. Memoirs," and extracts are quoted in Cothren's " Woodbury " (chapter on the Revolution).
