After making ourselves ready for anything that might happen, we marched after night to a Farm that was on the same side of the River about a mile above the Town, took the family Prisoners, and ^-3- . Iook ^ family ^ri^ma^, .
found plenty of Boats to cross In; and in two hours trans- ported ourselves to the other shore with the greatest silence. I learned that they had some suspicion of being attacted, and had some preparations, keeping out spies, but they making no discoveries had got off their... Guard. I immediately divided my little Army into two Divisions, ordered one to surround the town, with the other I broke into the Fort, secured the Governor, M. Rocheblave [who had transferred allegiance from the French to the Eng- lish] in 13 minutes had every street secured, sent Runners through the Town ordering the People on Pain of Death to keep close to rheir Houses, w^hich they observ'd, and before daylight had the whole town disarmed; nothing could excell the Confusion the people seemed to be in, being taught to expect nothing but Savage treatment from the Americans.
