"...I was with the American army at the time of the surrender of Burgoyne. Whilst we were there, we had an engagement with a party of Indians and Tories not far from a place called Snootskill. In that engagement, Lieutenant Munsey was mortally wounded by a ball which entered his body just above his hips. I saw him fall, and helped carry him off the ground. He died a few hours afterward."
