For several days the enemy were on their
way to Pla,tsburgh by land & by water. and
it being well understood that an attack
would be made at the same time by their
land * naval forces, determined to a wait
at anchor the approach of the latter.

the approach Of the enemy. At 9, he an

Our guns on the starboard side being nearly
all dismouuted, or not manageable, a stern

the ship winded with fresh broadside ON
the enemy's ship which soon after surrenr

Is minutes after.
The sloop that was opposed to the Eagl,
