This was near Mount Tom in New Milford. It was against the law to trade horses on the Sabbath. Guarding Mountain is on the west side of the Housatonic, opposite New Milford village. It was so named from the fact of the Indians building signal fires on it to guard against an attack by the Mohawk Indians. These guarding Indians must have been Sarah's Indian friends.
Fort Hill is where the Indian burial place was, at the foot of Guarding Mountain.
This where John Noble first built a hut. Sarah retold this story to her sister Margaret, and to one of the students so this information is in two separate sources. Maybe this was Tall John's family. It says in one book that the site of the hut is still visible, but the book is 80 years old. The second Noble house was located at the west side of the Green near Bank Street.
