General Winchester approved his decision,* and hastened forward to support the Colonel, with 250 men. These arrived at Frenchtown on the evening of the 20th. The troops under Lewis were protected from musketry by the garden pickets in the town, while the rein- forcement was without cover, in the open field.
Though no movement was made by the ene- my until the morn'mg of the 22d, yet not even a picket guard had been stationed upon any of the roads. During the night of the 21st, the British had c...ome up, unobserved, and at daylight fired bombs, balls, and grape shot, from heavy pieces of artillery, at a distance of only three hundred yards. The reinforce- ment Was sadly injured by the fire of the enemy, and soon fled across the river in the utmost confusion. The Indians gained our flank and rear, and butchered our soldiers most shockingly. General Winchester and some of the troops were taken prisoners, and marched to the British camp. Lewis still * It is to be greatly regretted, that after so si^al a triumph, this fine detachment had not retired, or that General Harrison had not been apprised of these movements in time to support tUem.— Judge Hall.
