113 of Captain Walker, intelligence that all was safe at Fort Brown was received by General Taylor on the 6th. The garrison left in the fort was composed of the seventh infantry, Captain Hawkins, and two artillery companies, Lieutenant Bragg. On the 3d of May, the Mexicans having learned that General Taylor had marched for Point Isabel, with the principal part of his force, opened a cannonade and bombardment. Commencing at daylight, the fire was kept up until noon. In the first fire from the Me...xicans, Sergeant Weigartof Captain Lee's com- pany was killed. He was carried into the hospital and laid upon a bed. Hardly had he been placed there when a shell coming through the canvass of the tent, burst near the place where the body had been deposited, and in its explosion detached the head of the corpse from the body, without injuring any of the living occupants of the tent. While very little damage was done to the garrison, the whole week was one of continual harassing excite- ment and hard labour.
