The savages, emboldenedby their success, rushed on to more fearful slaughter, and betweenmusket and tomahawk, butchery reigned supreme. Major Lewis, who was left behind with the baggage, leaving fifty menunder the charge of Captain Bullit to guard it, rushed forward with hisVirginia force to the relief of the regulars. His timely aid checked theadvance of the foe; but, in a hand to hand fight with an Indian warrior, he was taken prisoner, though not until the warrior lay dead at hisfeet. Major ...Grant was taken prisoner, and would have been tomahawked on thespot but for the interposition of a French officer. The retreat became a complete rout, the savages pursuing with theiraccustomed yells. Captain Bullit determined to resist the pursuit of theenemy by piling the baggage across the road for a barricade. Behindthis, with his fifty men, he poured a deadly fire into the foe as theyapproached, volley after volley, checking their advance by strikingterror to their hearts for a moment. Perceiving that he could not longhold out, he resorted to a strategy that would have been regardedbarbarous if adopted by Indians.
