Mij. Gm. Deal born, I tuok on
b ard the fquadron under my com
mand the general and mice, and a
bou: 1700 troopa, and left Sackett’*
Harbor on the 15th inft. for this
place. We arrived here yefterday
lf:dri:ißg and took a pofl ion about
one mile to the Couth and weflward
of the enemy’s principal fort, and
as near the fhore as we cculd with
jafeiy to the veffds. Tut place
fixed upon by the maj r g neral and
Hufcif Hr landing the troops was
the fate of the old French Fort
Tatar* tt.
The debarkation commenced a
brut 1 o’clock, a. m and was
completed about ten. The wind

thr boats fell to leeward *s( the po
fi?;on fixed upon and were in con
fcquence expofird to a galling fire
fr i m the enemy, vrho had taken a
p £ ion in a thick wood nr&r where
the fi it troops Uncled; however,
the cool intrepidity of the tfficeis
a: and men, overcome every obltacU.
Their attack upon ‘he eritmy was
io vigorous the he fl and in every di

Ai- foot? as the troops were landed,
i ( ‘.reded the fchooners a take a
pofitton near the forts it* order that

The fchooners were obi ged to heat
up to their pefirion, which they
did in very order under
a heavy fi e fr©*n the enemy’s bat
teries, and took a pofi Jon within a
bout fix hundred yard* of their
principal fort and opened a heavy
cannonade upon the enemy, which
did g cat excution snd very anuch
contributed to their fi deftrudti

were formed under the itr.mediate
orders of Bbg. Gen, Pike, who led
