They heard the evening gun of the camp the night before and the Drums the day they got over the River. Brought everything from Half-way brook and ordered this day all the waggons, carts, &c tomorrow to Fort Edward to bring what remains there to Half-way brook. July. 1st. Pushed on the preparatives for building the Fort as much as possible and employed as many workmen as I could to forward it. Erecting a Post for 100 men, and one of 20, to leave for the security of things here when we pass the L...ake. 2d. This days employ for the carriages was to bring the remains from Fort Edward to Half-way brook. About ten o'clock I heard several dropping shots ; found immediately twas a party of Indians. I sent instantly to a Company of Light Infantry and Rangers, and they were out as soon as possible. I saw the shots on the right of the rear of the camp, and the officer commanding the Post on the right fired ten or a dozen shots before the Light Infantry or Rangers could get down. I added two more Companys of Light Infantry and three of Grenadiers to sustain, but before the first could get to the place where the firing was the Indians had made off.
