He asked Prevost that reinforcements be sent him from East- THE WAR OF I8I2-I3-J4 35 cm Canada, as he thought the gathering of a force at Plattsburg was only a feint, but he was refused. Drummond felt that the blow might fall at any mo- ment, and being uncertain as to where the landing would be made, had... distributed his force at various points. On the 3rd of July, at day break, the Amer- ican army crossed the river — one division a mile and a half above Fort Erie, the other division a short distance below. A heavy fog concealed their move- ments. Fort Erie was poorly fortified and held by J 00 men, who surrendered and were made prisoners. They then pushed on to Chippewa, where Pearson was in command with 700 regulars, 300 militia and 300 Indians. Pearson at first advanced, but finding the Americans in force, retreated, destroying the bridges behind him.
