from whence they had made the greatest resistance The Major perceiving that they retired from thence to James Fort which flanked his Battalions on the right and had annoyed them very much during the heat of the Action thought fit without any further delay to attack James's Fort likewayes There was a very great number of Moors there and several Foot-collours planted The Officers and Souldiers of the two Battalions appeared to be mightily satisfied with the Majors design of attacking that place whereupon they went on with an unanimous resolution and within a very short space beat the Moors from James's Fort and from all the Lines on that hand And the Moors having no further place of refuge there did make themselves to downright running towards their Camps and Dumbartouns Souldiers pursuing them still did find them drawing off a small piece of Brass-Cannon of four pound Ball which they beat the Moors from and it was brought in by Lieutenant Robert Innes Adjutant to the second Battalion Colonel Sackville no sooner sees the Moors running and Dumbartouns men still in pursute of them beyond the Lines But he upon the head of the Spanish Horse did immediatly ride over the Lines to pursue them more vigorously and to bring off the Foot if any Ambush had been laid for them About the same time that Dumbartouns Batallions had passed the Lines at James's Fort the Battalion of Seamen had likewayes past over the Line near Monmouths Fort The three Troops of English Horse that were commanded to sustain the Seamen passed the Lines immediatly after them and got to their head very quickly where they pursued the Moors first into their Camp Near the Camp Captain Netby with his Troop of English Horse took five Foot-collours and one of them with his own hand At that same time the Major of Dumbartouns Regiment coming up to Colonel Sackville who did not know well what way the enemy had retired from James's Fort the Major therefore who had taken very good notice and had pursued them in their retreat did take Colonel Sackville with the Commandant of the Spanish Horse to a little Valley towards the right of James's Fort from whence the Spanish Horse pursued them just into their Camp and there was a Collours taken by one of the Commandants Troop Captain Langstoun was shot in the Leg in the pursute Upon the English and Spanish Horses approaching their Camp they began to carry away their Women with great precipitation In the morning when the Garrison sallied out four Captains of the Earl of Dumbartouns Regiment being then on Guard in Pauls Fort Colonel Sackville thought fit to command out of the Fort Captain Lundie and Captain Home with 150 men of that Guard to sally out upon the right hand And at the same time that the Plottons of Foot with the Granadeers did attack the place of Arms they did attack the advanced Trenches that was within twelve or fifteen yards of the Fort with very great courage and success They were both dangerously wounded with the loss of several good men Captain Bows Commandant of the Guards advancing with his Battalion towards the left hand of the place where the Cannon was found continued there all that day for a reserve till the Cannon was carried off and the enemies Trenches filled on both sides of the Fort. Major Boynten stayed with his Battalion near Monmouth Fort for a reserve The Admiral Herbert had ordered all the Long-boats belonging to his Fleet to be manned and Armed and row out towards the Enemies Batte● that they had made use of nine Piece of Cannon to play upon the Mole and th● Ships that lay near which proved to be very advantagious to our design by re●son it gave a jealousie to the Enemy and diverted a considerable part of their Forces Master Sheers ordered all his Mole Horses to be mounted with Men an● Armes and Captain Mackenzie was commanded with them and sixteen of 〈◊〉 own Troop to March out at the Furrage-gate in the Castle and without th● Spur before Peterburrough Tower with a Colours of each Batalion of Foot with in the Spur and several Drums from each Battalion Captain Mackenzie gave the Allarum toward Charles-fort at the same tim● they attacked before Pauls-fort The Horse that pursued the Enemy to their Camp returned in good order with little or no loss The Battalions of Dumbartons Regiment continued to ke●● their Post at James-fort till about four of the Clock in the Afternoon Th● Enemy upon our Retiring of our Horses and Foot within the old Line did advance again with Colours into their old Trenches and behind the little Sand-hi●● all round from James to Monmouth-fort within Pistol-shot The Battalion of Seamen that was Posted on the left hand of Dumbartons Battalions continued like wise Skirmishing with them till about four of the Clock in the Afternoon and about that time Major Betman Ingenier who had been mightily employed and exposed all the day having then ended his Business and all the Enemies place of Arms being thrown down and their Trenches filled up the Signal was given from the Fort to Retire from the Lines which was observed with very grea● Order and Conduct And the Moors who never had such a defeat from the Garrison of Tangier did not offer to follow us upon our Retiring according to their former Custome There were five Prisoners taken alive four Collours taken two Piece of Cannon many good Arms both Fire-locks and Cymetars and a great deal of rich Plunder of Cloaths and Silver and Gold which is a great sign of man● of their Officers and best sort of People being killed to the judgement of all that was in that Action they lost 400 Men. There was left within our Lines a great many of their bodies and about thirty-six of their heads cut off and brought in whereof the Sea-men had great store The next day we gave back their Bodies and Heads to them to bury This happy Victory we obtained with the loss of a great many of our best Officers and Souldiers whereof I cannot give an exact account save of the two Battalions of Dumbartouns Regiment 〈◊〉 Render Justice to every one All the Officers in general behaved themselves with great Conduct and Courage And to do Justice to the Moors They Fought most bravely for the space of two hours and especially their Horsemen did the hardest and boldest things tha● ever was seen done But they were not numerous for there was not seen above 150 Horsemen The Prisoners we took confess they had not above 3000 Foot and 150 Horse commanded by the Alcade of Tituan All the Officers both Scots and English behaved themselves in this Action with a great deal of bravery and resolution and particularly Lieutenant Collonel Talmash who carries to His Majesty the good news of this Victory This is a true Relation of the Action Sic Subscribitur Major JA.
