This town contains about 26 houses. While we halted at this town, Lieut. Boyd, with 20 men of the Rifle Corps, was sent to the next town to reconnoitre the enemy. On his return about 700 of the enemy ambushed him, killed and took 18 of the party. After the corn, &c., was destroyed and 'the town set in flames, we moved off to the next town.

This river runs with a strong current out of a hilly country. Three miles below where we forded, is navigable to lake Ontario.
