The two generals remain where they are for two days, while Howe reinforces the position on Chatterton Hill, and Washington organizes his army for retreat into the hills.
With the arrival of additional Hessian and Waldeck troops under Lord Percy on October 30, Howe plans to act against the Americans the following day.
However, a heavy rain falls the whole next day, and when Howe is finally prepared to act, he will awakens to find that Washington has again eluded his grasp.
