APPENDIX D. 311 



be made for tlie "Wounded, and the Flour and Every thing Destro^'ed, 

 which, for want of Horses, could not be Carried, We Marched without 

 Molestation to this Camp. After the Severe Correction We had given 

 the Savages a few hours before, it was Natural to Suppose We should 

 Enjoy some Rest; but We had hardly Fixed our Camp, when they fired 

 upon Us again : This was very Provoking ! ILnvever, the Light Infantry 

 Dispersed them, l)efore they could Receive Orders for that purpose. — I 

 Hope We sliall be no more Disturbed, for, if We have another Action, 

 We shall hardly be al)le to Carry our Wounded. 



The Rehavior of the Troops, on this Occasion, Speaks for itself so 

 Strongly, that for me to Attempt their Eulogium, would but Detract from 

 their merit. 



I Have the Honor to be, most Respectfully, 



Sir, 



Henry Bouquet. 



P. S. I Have the Honor to Enclose the Return of the Killed, Wounded, 

 and Missing in the two Engagements. 



H. B. 

 His Excellency Sir Jeffrey Amherst.
