• Chippaaa, July 6,1814. ,
SIR,—I have the honotato inform you,, that tke
enemy effected a landing ail the morning' of ifitr3d
inst. at the Ferry, opposite Black Rock,. hithit4
driven in the_picquOt of the garrison of Fort
I Was made acquainted with this circumstance abodt
eight in the morning, and gava orders for the imme-
diate advance to Chippewa of five companies of the
Royal Scots, under 14ei4ettoot.:Coloittki Gerdrfii, to
reinforce the garrison of. that place.' Lieetenant-
Colonel Pearson had moved forward from thence
with the Mink companies of the 100th, .some militia,
and a-few Indians, to reconnoitre their position and
numbers. He found them posted on the ridge
parallel with the river, near the ferry, and in strong
force. I received information from Major Buck,
that they had also landed a considerable force above
Fort Erie. In consequence of the King's Regiment,
which I had every reason to expect the day before
from York, not having arrived, I was prevented
from making an attack that night.
I The following morning, the 4th, a body of their
;troops were reported to be advancing by the river;
I moved to reconnoitre, and found them.to be in con-
siderable force, with cavalry and artillery, and a.
large body of riflemen. 'Lieutenant-Colonel Peara
son was in advance during this reconnoissance, with
the light company of the Royal Scotc, and the flank
company of the 100th, and a few ()tithe 19th light
dragoons, four of whom, and eight horses, were
wounded in a !skirmish with the enemy's riflemen.

Having been joined by the King's Regiment on
the morning of the sth, I made my dispositions for
attack at four o'clock in the afternoon. The light
companies of the Royal Scots, and 100th regiment,
with the 2d Lincoln militia, formed the advance
under Lieutenant-Colonel Pearson. The Indian
warriors were throughout on our right flank in the
woods. The troops moved in three columns, the
third (the King's Regiment) being in advance. The
enemy had taken up a position with his right resting
on some buildings and orchards close on the river
Niagara, and strongly supported by artillery ; his
left towards the wood, having a considerable body
of riflemen and Indians in front of it.

Our Indians and militia were shortly engaged with
the enemy's riflemen and Indians, who at first check-
ed their advance, but the light troops being brought
to their support, they succeeded, after a sharp con-
test, in dislodging them, in a very handsome style.
I placed two light 24-pounders, and a five and a
half inch howitzer, against the right of the enemy's
position, and formed the Royal Scots and 100th Re-
giment, with the intention of making a movement
upon his left, which deployed with the greatest rei
gularity, and opened a very heavy fire.
I immediately moved up' the King's Regiment to
the right, while dip Royal Scots and 100th regiment
were directed to charge the enemy in front, for
which they advanced with the greatest gallantry,
under a most destructive' fire. lam sorry to say,
however, in this attempt they suffered so severely,
that I 'was obliged tat withdraw them, finding their
further efforts against the superior numbers of the
enemy would be 'Dwelling.
Lieutenant-Colonel Gordon and Lieutenant-Co-
lonel the Marquis of Tweedale, commanding these
regiments, being wounded, as were most of the
officers belonging to each, I directed a
be made upon Chippewa, which was condo
good order and regularity, covered by the
regiment, under Major Evans, and the lighi
under Lieutenant-Colonel Pearson; and
