MEL BRADFoRD7s ACCOUNT OF TIL
BATTLE AT RED BANK.

COLONEL BRADFoRDis ACCOUNT OF THE
BATTLE AT RED BANK.
Count Dunop and his force were before
the Fort in the afternoon Of the 22d OF
October and at quarter before five o'clock
proceeded to attack it with great spirit.
Having carried the outworks against the
garrison his troops had now to storm the
interior intrenchments. To reach them, as
we have said in describing the Fort the
attacking force had to place itself where it
would be exposed to tie fire of our vessels.
The opportunity was not missed by Com
mod0re Hazelwood. Coming as near as
possible to the Fort, he sent forth univer-
sal shower of balls and musket shot on the
attacking party. The rest of the history is
known to every one. The assallants re-
tired, but only to find in their slower and
disoTdered retreat, a still more deadly fire
from the fleet.
Count Dunop fell mortally wounded,
Lieutenant Colonel Mingerode, three cap
tains, four lieutenants and nearly seventy
n-commissioned officers and priyates were
killed. The brigade major, one captain,
one lieutenant, and upwards OF seventy
non-commissioned officers and priyates
were Wounued ana maze prisoners, ohntfs
who were wounded being taken back to
Philadelphia. The whole advance, attack
and retreat lasted but forty-fve minutes;
the loss was estimated at not less than four
hundred persons, including many of the
best officers.
| The loss in the garrison bore no proper
ation to this. One captain, FIVE sergeants,
IONS fifer, and seven privates were killed.
&0ne captain was taken prisoner, and one
ensign, two sergeants, and twenty privates
were wounded.
