To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The night being dark and cloudy, the vessel run aground ; the Caledonia ran close into the ferry at Black Rock, and the Detroit on the upper end of Squaw Island, near the middle of Niagara river. In their passage down and while they were aground, the British opened their batteries upon them, and the Americans returned the fire from the Detroit; but finding they could not bring the guns to bear upon the enemy to advantage, they left her. About 10 o'clock next morning, a company of British regula...rs from Fort Erie boarded the Detroit, with an intention to destroy the military stores with which she was princi pally laden ; but they were dislodged by a detachment of volunteers, under the command of Capt. Cyrenus Chapin, who crossed over to Squaw Island for that purpose.
About 3 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day the British boarded the Detroit a second time, and were again dislodged. In this second attempt three of the British were taken prisoners, and a considera- ble nnm!)er of them wounded.
