| Notes |
- Papers of Harriet V. Miller: "When Tarleton and Arnold invaded VA, a detachment of their forces passed through Pr. Edw. Co. on general plundering expedition. They raided 'Slate Hill," with the purpose of capturing Nathaniel Venable, but he escaped them, having received in time warning of their approach. They committed some robberies, destroyed some furniture and one of their number pointed at the breast of Mrs. Venable, demanded that she reveal her husband's whereabouts or he would shoot her down. Her calm reply was, "Fire away, my husband has his country to defend." At this instant an officer intervened and ordered away the man who had offered the indignity, severely reprimanding him."
[Note from Sandra Lake Lassen, 1999: I don't know the source of this family story, but find it spurious, as what "hero" would hide from the enemy, and leave his wife there to deal with them?]
