Cuyler himself was left behind wounded; but he waded out, and was taken aboard under a brisk fire from the shore.

The Indians then launched two of the abandoned boats, rushed in pursuit of the fleeing soldiers, speedily captured three of the boats, and brought them ashore in triumph.
The two others, in one of which was Cuyler, hoisted sail and escaped.

The Indians, as we have seen, brought the captured boats and their prisoners to Detroit.

Cuyler had directed his course to Sandusky, but finding the blockhouse there burnt to the ground, he had rowed eastward to Presqu'isle, and then hastened to Niagara to report the disaster.
The siege of Detroit went on.

Towards the middle of June, Jacques Baby brought word to the commandant that the _Gladwyn_ was returning from the Niagara with supplies and men, and that the Indians were making preparations to capture her.
