The assailants, however, though dri- ven back, did not retreat far, but maintained a continual fire. Few things, indeed, sur- prised me more, during the day, than the quickness and regularity of the fire of mus- ketry, considering how unpractised the hands were which kept it up. At a little before four o'clock, they brought three large waggons full of straw, to set fire to the out-buildings. This was the greatest blunder which was committed throughout the affair. The flames thus caused, were fa...r more an impediment to them, than an annoy- ance to the garrison ; and accordingly, the MR. blount's mss. 81 waggons had not been long on fire, before as strenuous endeavours were made to remove them, as there had previously been to bring them, and place them accurately. I saw one individual dash forward, and, by his unas- sisted strength and courage, withdraw one of these blazing waggons, which blocked up the approach to the main gate of entrance. This feat excited vast shouts from the assail- ants ; and truly it deserved all praise.
