SIR—In my letter Irons
Sandwich of the 30th uk. !
I d;«i mylelf the honor to
inform you, that i was prt- i
paring to puriue the en -my I
j the foliotfing day. Froai
various cauies, however, T
j was unable to put me
troops in motion until the
j morning of the 2nd mitaut,
j and (hen to take with me
: only about one bundled and
torty of the Rcgukr croups,
John lon’s Mounted Regt.
and such of Gov* iheiby’s
Volunteers as were fit for a
rapid march, the whole a
muunting to about 3,500
men. To Gen. M*ArUiur,
(with about 700 effectives)
j the protecting of this place
and the lick was committed,
j Gen. Call's brigade and the
i corps of Lieut. Col. Bail
wcce left at Sandwich, wah
orders to follow me as loon
;as the men received their
knaplacks and blankets,
which had been left oa an
llland on Lake Eke.
The unavoidable delay at
Sandwich was attended with
no diladvantage to us. Ge
neral Prodtor had polled
hi itilelt at Da [foil’s on the
right bank of the Thame*
(or Trench) fifty-fix mile*
from this place, where 1
j was informed he intended
| to fortify and wait to re.
I ceive me. He niuft have
1 believed, however, that 1
I had ho disposition to follow
| him, or that he had fccurcd
|my continuance here, by
j the reports that were cncu
iateci that the Indians
| attack aad destroy this
• place upon the advance of
i the army; as he riegle&ed
i to commence the breaking
up the bridges until the
night of the 2nd infl. On
thac night our army reached
the river, which is twenty
five mile# from Sandwich
; and is oife of tour ltiearns
; eroding our route, over ail
of which are bridges, and j
being deep and mud .y, are
1 unforoabie Ivr a Confidar*-

cr.rifv, and in the
Kiorniog j proceeded with
joijirlcti'i Kegtarcr.t tv lave-}
ii pohtcie t.:c uiiicrs At
j the second bridge over a I
branch of the river Ihames,
,we wtre lortunatc Cvough
! to capture a Lieut. ofr> ra .
! goons and eleven priea cs#
who had been fer.t by Gt .
i ProCfor to destroy them
i From the prisoners I leara
cd that the third bridge was j
; broken up and that the ene
jmy had no certain intoirru
> tion of our advance. The
1 bridge having been itnpcr
; fedfcly detfroyed, was soon
1 r®paired ani the army en
; camped i Drake* lanw, 4 1
miles below Dalfon’f.
The river Thame?, along
1 the banks of which our
< _ 1
| route Dy, is a tine deep
ilream, navigable for vef
j fels ot considerable burthen,
after the pafiage of the bar
at its mouth over which,
there is fix and a halt feet
or water.
The baggage of the army
was brought trom Detroit
in boats protected by thrta
Gunboats, which Commo
dore Perry had iurnilbed
for the perpofe, as well as
to cover the pillage ut the
army over the Thames it
leir, or the mouths of its
tributary ft.earns; the banks
being low and ihs country
generally open (Prairies) as
high as Dalfoa'e, theie vcf
lcU were well calculated for
tha 1 : pu r pofc# Above Dal
fon’s however, the charac
ter of the river and adjacent
country is considerably chan
ged. The former, though
ltiii deep, is very narrow
and its bauks hign and wJu
dy, The Commodore and
uiyfelf therefure agreed up
on the propriety ut leaving
the boats under a guard ot
150 infantry, and 1 deter
mined t* trust to fortune &c
ih: b avery of my troops to
tftedf tlie pafiage of the nv- j
er. Below' a place called ,
Chatham and four miles a
bove Dulfon’s is the third
umordabie branch of the
Thames; the bridge over
its mouth had been taken
up by the Indians, as v, ell
as that at M‘Giegor'» Mills,
one mile above—fever.*]
hundred of the Indians re
mained to dispute our pas
sage and, upr.,i the ariivvi
1 of the advanced guard, com
menced a heavy fitc horn
the oppclitc bank of the
creek as well as that ot the
! river. Believing that the
whole force of the enemy
was theit, i halted the ar.
uiy, foimed in order of bat
tle, and brought up our
two fix pounders to cover
| the part/ that were ordered
to repair the bridge —a few
