Leaving behind their Major, named Murray, a man so fat he could not keep pace with them, the Highlanders, in kilt and tartan, rushed up the ascent with such speed and dash that they actually made prisoners of about a hun dred and seventy of the Americans. Hearing his calls, some of his men then went back and helped their stout Major to the top of the hill. When Stirling s fire was heard, Percy again quickly advanced, and Cadwallader, after a short and brisk contest at the second line, find ing ...himself in danger of being cut off by the Highlanders, retreated to the Fort, into which the flying Americans had crowded in disor der as they were driven from their respective lines of defence. Knyphausen s columns having neared the fort first, and taken a commanding position within a hundred yards of its west side, he sent a second summons to surrender, which was received by Cadwallader and referred to Magaw. The fort itself does not seem to have fired at all. It was in fact so crowded by the fugitive Americans that they would have been slaught ered in masses had it been defended and stormed.
