There were 160 Abenakis, many of whom chose to flee rather than fight. At least 31 chose to fight, and most of them were killed.:80 Rale was killed in the opening moments of the battle, a leading chief was killed, and nearly two dozen women and children.:84 The Colonists had casualties of two militiamen and one Mohawk.
