Col. Mitchell of the corps * Commodore Chauncey, in a letter about this date to the secretary of the navy, states — " The enemy has paid dearly for the little booty he obtained at Oswego. From the best information which I can collect, both from deserters and my agents, the enemy lost 70 men killed, and 165 wounded, drowned and missing — in all 235 ; nearly as many as were opposed to them. Capt. Mulcaster is certainly mortally wounded ; a captain of marines killed, and a number of other officers... killed and wounded. " 280 OTSEGO COUNTY. of artillery, have by their gallant and highly military conduct on the 5th and 6th inst, gained a name in arms worthy of tlie nation they serve and the cause they support. For nearly two days they maintained an unequal contest against ten times their number, and but yielded their post when the interest of their country made that measure necessary. The companies composing this gallant detachment were Boyle's, Romayne's, Mclntire's, and Pierce's, of the heavy artillery, and a few seamen under the command of Lieut Pearce of the navy, — in all less than three hundred men.
