Camp Meigs July 24, 1813 General Orders The movements of the enemy indicate an attack of some description. We have with little loss once repelled the enemy, with a force inferior to our present. No one can doubt but we are more than competent to do it again. In consequence of an attack, to make the destruction of the enemy more complete the most perfect silence will be observed by the officers, no one will speak or attempt to give orders but those vested with Command. To fight is to conquer, to abandon our posts is to suffer disgrace and the most shocking massacre. - Col. James Mills, 1st Regiment, Ohio Militia
