Colonel Arthur Brooke and his men retreated from North Point because they couldn't take on Major General Smith's 12,000 American troops without Vice Admiral Cochrane's support.

He and General Robert Ross were sent to North America to the area of the Chesapeake Bay, in the War of 1812. Colonel Brooke started to fight in the Bladensburg Battle, trying to get to Washington, getting to North Point on September 11, 1814 and assumed the control of the troops after Ross was killed. He waited for the support of Admiral  Cochrane's navy at Paptasco, but he was stopped at Fort McHenry.
