Excerpt from An Historical Journal of the Campaigns in North-America, Vol. 2: For the Years 1757, 1758, 1759, and 1760; Containing the Most Remarkable Occurrences of That Period; Particularly the Two Sieges of Quebec, &C. &C.; The Orders of the Admirals and General Officers; Descriptions of the Countries Where the Author Has Served "The loss, however, is inconsiderable, and may be easily repaired, when a favourable opportunity offers, if the men will shew a proper attention to their Officers. The grenadiers of Louisbourg are to remain on the Isle of Orleans till farther orders; Lieutenant-Colonel Murray is to command in that island. The companies of grenadiers of the battalions in-camped at Montmorencie are to join their regiments, and those belonging to the regiments of Brigadier Monckton´s corps are likewise to join their regiments; the Highlanders are to return to their camp, and Lawrence´s grenadiers to join their regiment at Montmorencie. After this day the men are to begin work at fix in the morning, except on particular occasions, and continue till ten; then cease till two, or, perhaps, three o´clock, in case of excessive heat, and work till six or seven. The troops to receive provisions to-morrow, to the fifth inclusive, &c. &c." Some of the enemy´s boats attempted to pass down to the ruins of our late armed transports, but, receiving a very uncivil salute from the battery eastward of the fall, as also from the Point of Orleans, they were obliged to sheer off. Two soldiers of the forty-third regiment were wounded in their camp by accident. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
