Lieut. Col. Friedrich Baum, an ex-
perienced and thoroughly brave German
Officer in command of the British forces,
fell mortally wounded at the Battle of
Bennington, August 16, 1777, and with
Col. Pfister, taken prisoners to this house
where both died within 24 hours. Col.
Baum was buried in a shady nook on the
banks of the Walloomsac, near the house,
but the exact spot is not known.
