Captain Birge's Company traveled the Revolutionary Road and in September of 1776 fought in the battle of New York, resisting a full-scale invasion of British and Hessian forces under General Howe. Baker was again captured by the British on September 15,1776. Washington made a strategic withdrawal and dug in the American lines at White Plains, NY. During the battle of White Plains, October 28 of 1776, Captain Birge was mortally wounded and was allowed to try to return to Bolton. The Revolutionary Road was filled with refugees, the wounded leaving the embattled towns, and fresh troops heading for the front. Captain Birge was buried in an unmarked grave near Stamford on November 10, 1776. He never made it back to Bolton.
