By Chas "Mr Huot has spent many months in studying the topography of the Plains of Abraham in o^-der to present a correct view of the site of the famous conflict. With the assistance of topographical plans made shortly after the event, the artist has been able to produce a faithful sketch of the battlefield. In the foreground, stretching across the plateau, the French troops are deployed, await- ing the order to advance. To the right, upon the summit of the Bttttes d Neveu, Montcalm is represented with his chief officers. In the distance are the British troops, headed by Wolfe, with the rising ground upon which the Quebec Gaol now stands, in the rear. Mr. Huot is the first artist who has attempted to depict this scene from a careful and patient study of contempo- rary documents." No. 2.— The Siege of Qnebeo.
