side, when the indian returned it with spirit
aid soon put the tailors into utter coulu

have been cut to pieces, but for-the regulars,
as Liet. Powell and all acknowledged.
Six or eight were killed and left 'upon the

but could not retire. lie was left to the
tender mercy of die Indians. Dr. Leitner,
of the navy, was killed, and every olicer

is matter of dotlit-probably a combination
of the two. lie had the hest medical atten
