The most severely wounded were left in the fort; [Footnote: Bradley MSS.

The addition of two hundred sick and wounded brought the garrison to such short commons that they had to slaughter the pack-horses for food.] and then the flight was renewed, until the disorganized and half-armed rabble reached Fort Washington, and the mean log huts of Cincinnati.

Six hundred and thirty men had been killed and over two hundred and eighty wounded; less than five hundred, only about a third of the whole number engaged in the battle, remained unhurt.

But one or two were taken prisoners, for the Indians butchered everybody, wounded or unwounded, who fell into their hands.

There is no record of the torture of any of the captives, but there was one singular instance of cannibalism.
