Working party 150
men began to make fascines for making good the rear of the Redoubts at Staaten
Island and to add 2 small ones for 30 men each to terminate the Flanks. I
returned to New York this Evening. All the Artillery and Stores excepting the
Battery Guns of the 2nd Battalion and 2 of Light Infantry were embarked on
board the Artillery Transports by nine o'clock this morning for Staaten Island.
