his home was at the head of Black Rock Harbor. "He built his
house of stone with a strong plank roof, and upon this roof he placed
two small cannon. One pointed out down the harbor against possible
Dutch invasion by sea; the other was directed at the Indian fort that
stood north on the hill. The Indians were friendly and the Dutch
invisible, but Thomas was a cautious man."
