 The Raid of Mohawk Valley (Fort Plain)
Brant then burnt the rebel fort at the village with other buildings and marched to the Indians below Fort Schuyler, where he met the Oneidas in camp and called upon them to follow the example of the rest of their people and return to the British government.
In this they were disappointed by the too great eagerness of the Indians to take prisoners, who scattered and alarmed the settlement, by which a considerable number of men got into the fort, which made the attack inexpedient, as it was well fortified and had 2 pieces of cannon mounted.
The extent of the settlement destroyed was on the Mohawk River in length 2 miles and above 5 miles in breadth, and containing 100 houses, 2 mills, a church, and 2 forts.
