According to his own statement in his pension record, he was present and in view of Maj. Andre at the time he was hung at Tappan.
Years later, Sabra filed for a widows pension. In her statement she said, I have often heard my husband speak of being on duty as camp guard at the time of the execution of Major Andre, and describe the appearance of General Washington at this time.
