[E.B. O'Callaghan (1849)] 3000 sheep, All these articles were to have been sent in a few clays to Corlaer (Schenectady.) 1500 horses, 300 of which were taken by the Indians and the greater number consumed for the support of the detachment. The property in furniture, wearing apparel, merchandize and liquor might form a capital of 1,500,000 livres. The Mayor of the Village alone has lost 400,000. The French and Indians have acquired as rich a booty as they could cany oft". They have in specie more than 100,000 livres. One Indian alone has as much as 30,000. There was likewise plundered a quantity of Wampum, silver-bracelets &c, scarlet cloth and other Merchandize which may form a capital of 80,000 more. All this damage could not be done short of 48 hours. M. de Belletre made provision to be always able to resist the enemy, who as has been observed, were to the number of 350 men in the said Fort Kouari, about a quarter of a league from the field of battle. In fact, on the 13th at 7 o'clock in the morning, 50 Englishmen accompanied by some Mohawks left the said Fort, but as soon as they were perceived our Frenchmen and Indians went to meet them double quick, and forced them to swim across the river after receiving several discharges of Mus-ketry. The number that perished cannot be estimated. At noon the same day, M. de Belletre gave orders to his detachment to commence their return march.
