127 get into position, and when the advancing English came upon the main body of the Americans, numbering about three thousand men, they found it impossible to dis- lodge them. Strieker had posted them with skill, and flanked by the cavalry of Colonel Biays, and a battery of six-pounders under Captain Montgomery, they with- stood, for over an hour, the combined British force, numbering more than six thousand men. At no time during the battle were a greater number than fifteen hundred of the Ame...ricans actually engaged, and amongst these the weight of the contest fell upon Pinckney's Brigade. The 5th and 27th Regiments particularly distinguished themselves, by brilliant and reckless fighting. After an hour's severe conflict, almost hand to hand, the regiment of Col. Amey wavered, and finally broke — leaving the American flank exposed to be turned. General Strieker immediately changed front, and withdrawing the regiments of Sterrett, McDonald, Long and Fowler, and Pinckney's rifles, re-formed his line a short distance in the rear of his first position, and offered battle a second time.
