Lieutenant Colonel Hay was also among the wounded.
Although the design upon fort Fayette had yielded to the desire of securing the success of the attack on Stony Point, it had not been abandoned.

Two brigades under General M'Dougal had been ordered to approach the works on Verplank's, in which Colonel Webster commanded, and be in readiness to attack them the instant General Wayne should obtain possession of Stony Point.

That this detachment might not permit the favourable moment to pass unimproved, Wayne had been requested to direct the messenger who should convey the intelligence of his success to the Commander-in-chief, to pass through M'Dougal's camp, and give him advice of that event.

He was also requested to turn the cannon of the fort against Verplank's, and the vessels in the river.

The last orders were executed, and a heavy cannonade was opened on fort Fayette, and on the vessels, which compelled them to fall down the river.
