This order was not received by Major Croghan until the following day — when flying parties of the Indians had become so numerous round the fort, that, as Croghan himself stated, it was too late to carry the order into execution, and he decided on maintaining the place. In consequence of this disobedience of orders. Colonel Wells was immediately sent, with a strong escort of cavalry, to take com- mand of Fort Stephenson, and Croghan was ordered to repair forthwith to head-quarters. But on his ar...rival there, he made such satisfactory explanations to the commander-in-chief, of the situation of the fort, and of his own respectful intentions, that General Harrison at once reinstated him in his command. He returned to his duties the following morning, and on the same day, July 31st, this station was invested by a force of thirteen hundred British regulars and Indians. They attacked the fort with great vigour, and repeatedly attempted to take it by assault — but they were each time defeated, and were at length forced to abandon their attempt, and retreat in confusion, having lost, in killed and wounded, nearly as many as the entire number of the gallant spirits who defended the fort.
