Conspiracy of Pontiac
The Seige of Detriot
Indians, with a view to intercept them, went back towards the woods and ran around. The British crossed the bridge to the Meloche house on the west side of the creek, where they rallied, but owing to the fear, on the part of the Indians, of the gun-boats along shore, not a red skin was to be seen. The troops began their march back to the fort, which they reached without further loss, although a skirmish took place on the way. Their safety in the retreat was attributed to the gun-boats.
