NAMES AND RANK OF THE MARYLAND RIFLE COMPANIES UNDER LIEUT. COL. MOSES RAWLINGS, AS THEY STOOD MAY 31, 1777.

NOTE.-These rifle companies were present at the attack on Fort Washington, on the 16th November, 1776, by the English forces under Sir William Howe. For some considerable length of time, the deadly fire of these riflemen, aided by a three-gun battery, kept the left column of the Hessians and Waldeckers, under General Knyphausen, entirely at bay. At length, their rifles becoming so foul from incessant firing, they were compelled to give ground. The fort was, after a desperate resistance on the part of the Americans, surrendered to the British, who took about 2,800 Americans prisoners, among whom were many of these riflemen, which circumstance so thinned their ranks, that in the summer of 1777 they were incorporated into other companies.
