I conversed with him for some time, when I left him to try to obtain some assistance to have him removed into the house.

I was then placed under arrest by a Fenian, by order of his commanding officers, and conveyed to a farm house, where I found two of our wounded men, young VanderSmissen, of the University Rifles, badly wounded in the thigh, and Corporal Lakey, shot through the mouth.

With the assistance of the Fenian sentry I had them both put to bed and rendered them all the assistance in my power; for, be it noticed, that we could not find man, woman nor child in a circuit of miles, all fled in terror.

When I could not do any more in that house, I requested the sentry to march me to the commanding officer, who was then at the tavern.

He rode a sorrel horse, which was then at the door, and about half a mile from where we then were.
