Summary from the Ontario Heritage Foundation's website
Brockville offered virtually no resistance to Major Benjamin Forsyth's surprise attack in February 1813 and his American raiders made off with a quantity of arms and supplies. Retaliation came two weeks later, however, with a successful British attack on Ogdensburg, New York.
