We have had a smart engagement at Noddle's Island last Saturday week [May 27]; the Lord covered our heads in a wonderful manner in that day of battle. Although the balls flew like hail we never lost a single man, and had only three wounded; we took a large schooner [the Diana], killed about one hundred of their men, and took a large quantity of plunder, five hundred sheep, besides horses and horned cattle off the island: We took a boat and several men prisoners. Yesterday we burnt the house and barn that were on the island.
