this part of the manoeuvring had a particularly I

h- berated among the .houfes in the town, and the hills

:for On Tuefday lag, there was a grand attack made
ato on Erith, by the Sea Fencibles of Greenwich, with
the Volunteers of the fame place, joined by thofe of
541' Deptford. The Woolwich accompanied them, who
✓ed were to join thofe on More. The landing place and
me• Beach were defended by the Crayford and Bexley
oat Volunteers ; about one o'clock the attack began by
cep a gun boat, opening her fire to clear the Beach, af-
-Ir- filled by a number of the Sea Fentibles' boats which
re• had fwivels fixed on their gunnels. Under this tee-
yen mendous fire the landing was effefted, when the Sea
ave Fencibles, armed with pikes, drove the Bexley and
her Crayford Volunteers out of Erith, who, having ral.
ing lied, in their turn made a charge, and after a revere
Lich contra, during which there•was an inceffant area-
ting firing, the Bexley and Crayford Volunteers fucaeed-
in in making the whole detachment of Pikemen pri•
ally loners. Several were flightly wounded ; the ends of
o to the piles and the muzzles of the guns (when in the
heir a& of firing) frequently meeting.
heir It was obferved by a foreigner, on the (pot, ge If
ent- there men fight to hard in !port, what would they do
(Cr- in earnest ?"
r. After the Sea Fencibles or Pikemen were fecnred,
the Bexley and Crayford Volunteers had ail more
work to do, for the Greenwich Volunteers had taken .
"1g- 'e of poffellion of Erith Church-yard, and its environs,
from whence they were driven ; they retreated up ,
Per- the skirts of Lord Eardley's park, keeping up a heavy
his fire the whole time till they came on Lefinefs Heath,
set; where they made a Rand. The two lines being drawn
the up oppofite to each other, a (mart firing commenced
r re• and continued for tome time, after which they faint- ,
ed his Lordfhip: they then all mArched into the Park
lent and united in an attack on a Beef and Porter redoubt'
hole , crafted oppofite Belvidere Houle. I need not tell
Por- how they fucceeded in he attack, for when was rid-,
'e in tifh prowefs known to fail on fu.:,) an ocealion? The
prin• weather was extremely unfavou; able, nut withllar
beft ing which, the concourfe of Cps titers was immenfe, 1
who smoked highly gratified with the light.
