Their horses ran up to our line, which was then in view.
The warriors then came yelling on, meeting us, and continued till they were within shot of us, when we fired and killed a considerable number of them.

They broke like a gang of steers, and ran across to the other line.
"And so we kept them running, from one line to the other, constantly under a heavy fire, till we had killed upwards of four hundred of them.
They fought with guns and also with bow and arrows.

But at length they made their escape through a part of our line, which was made up of drafted militia, which broke ranks, and they passed.

We lost fifteen of our men, as brave fellows as ever lived or died.

We buried them all in one grave, and started back to our fort.
