During the bloody struggles of the War of Independence, he took an active part, and few men have been as much exposed to danger in many a desperate encounter with foreign and savage foes, and yet escaped unhurt. In 1807, Major Van Campen was appointed one of the Judges of Allegany county, and he also held with much credit the office of Treasurer for fifteen years. In 1834, he removed to the village of Dansville, where his upright character and integrity secured the esteem of every ciitzen. In the village of Angelica and alos in Dansville, he filled the responsible station of an office bearer of the Presbyterian church; and faithfully did he discharge the duties which devolved upon him, until that hand was palsied and had become feeble, which had held the sword and the pen with manly firmness.-- Allegany Advocate [The Weekly Herald, (New York, NY), Saturday, October 27, 1849]
