Journal of Lieutenant William Feltman, July 7, 1781

This morning dressed my wound, which was very painful, but a very slight wound. In the afternoon went to see our wounded officers and soldiers at Bird's Ordinary.

Capt. Cropley's wound being very painful to him; likewise Lieut. Piercy's, both wounded through the thigh. Capts. Stake and McClelland slightly, through the calf of their legs.
