Proceed to your post (Detroit) with all possi- ble expedition. Make such arrangements for the de- fense of the country as in your judgment may be neces- sary, and wait for further orders." This was from the war department at Washington, and bore date June i8th. Eight days previously he had received dispatches from the war department, through a different source, making no mention of the declaration of war, an oversight on the part of the secretary as inexcusable as it was mysterious. General Hul...l now made haste to march for Detroit, and reached the place on the 7th. Here he remained till the 1 2th, when he crossed over to the Canada shore with his whole army, and issued a spirited proclamation to the French subjects of Great Britain, who lived in the country, many of whom gave in their allegiance to his standard. '''On to Maiden/'* was now the watch- word that prevailed in his army, but the extreme cau- tion of the commanding general forbade this, especially as his last instructions were to go to Detroit, and await orders.
