In consideration that this work contains expert opinions and obser- vations from both French and English standpoints, it is undoubtedly the most valuable contempKjrary record of the Siege. It absolutely fixes the position of the British anny after the ascent of the Cliff, the route taken to BOOKH AND 1'AWI'III.KTit 15 the battle field along the St. Foyc KoaH, and desiKnatcH the houses on the left occupied by the British Light Infantry, before the arrival of the French on the heights. Captain Knox in his Journal p. 70 and sc<|., Vol II, gives a translation of a portion of a manuscript which is evidently taken from this Journal. The brochure from which this copy is taken is very scarce and there is not t> copy in the Brit.

These letters, three in number, are evidently from a naval oCu cr. The first is dated on board the Stirling Castle, in the River St Lawrence, 2 miles below the City of Quebec, Sept. 2nd 1759. This letter is in the form of a Journal covering the period from June 13 to Sep. ist. The second subdivision of the book consists on an extract from another letter of the same date to Mr. M. P. This deals in a rather spirited way with the severe measures necessitated by war. The third and last letter to Mr. J. W. is dated Quebec, Sep. 20 1759. This also takes the form of a Jour- nal from the 3rd. September, with a full description of the battle : I ^.•' i6 MOUKH AND fAMfllLKTH " Ikfore I conclude, it may not be aniiiw to mention my own iiltuation on the important 13th.

Guest, Moses. — Poems on Several Occasi.-ns, to which are annexed extra' as being on the left of the British. Later, he claims that the ruins of the battery near the race stand which com- manded the field, were probably the remains of the battery mentioned by Townshend in his despatch. If this were so, then the battery would have been on the right of the English and not on the left as asserted by Townshend, Knox, and other authorities. Moreover, on the plans, and on the drawing made at the time by the aide-de-camp of General Wolfe, this battery is placed on the left, the guns command the river and not the field, and between the battery and the field, some houses intervene. In his attempt to be precise as to the relative positions of the army, Mr. Hawkins is unfortunate. The terminus a quo, without the terminus ad quern, is useless. The St. Lawrence is a large river, and a line might be drawn from either of the point:; given by Mr. Hawkins to Cape Diamond to Sillery, or to any other point on the river at will. We are, therefore, unable to gain much information from this source. The next passage of importance in this quotation, is the direift statement that the severest fighting occurred between the right of the race stand and the Ma-tello Towers. On page 357, Mr. Hawkins writes : " The Engli.sli were ordered to reserve their fire until the French were " within forty yards. They observed these orders stri(5>1y." The French were therefore within forty yards of the right of the race stand. Mr. Hawkins makes it quite clear that the redoubt near which Wolfe is said to have died, was occupied by the English before the final engagement. As this redoubt is at least a quarter of a mile eastward of the right of the race stand, the French, to gain this ground within 40 yards of the English, must have passed the Grenadiers who occupied the redoubt, and cut them off from the rest of the English army. " The General did " me the honour to detach me with a few Grenadiers to take that ground ' • and maintain it to the last extremity, which I did until the two armies ■Mb 1*^ UMiMil BOOKS AND PAMPHLETS t9 " were engaged.'" Further passages relating to this redoubt become still more involved. Mr. Hawkins refers to this redoubt as the place "against " which the attack was direifled, which Wolfe so gallantly urged on by ' ' his personal example. ' ' We have seen from the same author that the French were near the right of the race stand at the commencement of the attack, and that at the time the redoubt was occupied by the English, nevertheless, Mr. Hawkins states, that Wolfe gallantly led his men on to attack this redoubt. Wolfe was therefore leading an attack against his own army ! 76. Henty (G. A.) — With Wolfe in Canada, 12 page illustrations by Gordon Browne. 8vo. London (Blackie).

Francis Parkman, in the appendix to Montcalm and Wolfe, (page 287, Vol. iii, Ed. 1900) mentions a Journal with a somewhat similar title published in Dublin 1759, but we have been unable to find any such work in Dublin or in the British Museum.

This Journal seems in many respects to be similar to that published by the New York Mercury 31. Dec 1759. There are however many addi- tional fiicts of importance which are not included in the Mercury, for example page 9 ; " The same day we went to get our plunder, which we discovered on our March round the Island, consisting of Gowns, Shirts, petticoats. Stockings, Coats and Waiscoats, Breeches, Shoes, and many other arti- cles too tedious to mention, and some Cash ; which, if the Things had been sold to the value, would [have] fetch 'ed upwards of 500 1. Ster." The Journal runs from June ist. to Sep. 19 1759. There is a copy of the pamphlet in the Library of Congress at Wash- ington from which a transcript was made for this work under the direc- tion of the Librarian 88.

Mr. V'Jger reproduce.s o'\ page 3 of this pamphlet a letter to Dr Lee, of London, to whom the manuscript belonged, asking permission to copy it. The Journal covers the period from the ist. May to the loth. Sept. and contains very interesting details of the early days of the Siege. Pages 38 to 41 inclusive contain a translation of the memorial sent by Lieut. Jean Denis de Vitr6 to the Right Honble. Wm. I'itt regarding the Services of his father, a pilot of the Knglish Fl'.et in the operations against Quebec. A note signed by J. f^ee, evidently the Doctor Lee above referred to .says that the original petition is in the hands of John Rose Esqr. No. 2 New Inn, 16 July 1831. In 1876, the manuscripts which belonged to the late John Lee of Doctor's Commons, removed from Hartwell House, were catalogued and offered for sale. They were however withdrawn for eighteen years, and finally .sold by Sotherby in 1894. An autograph ms. by Sir A. Schom- berg, and a ms. by I). B. Viger, 1828, were included in the catalogue. The British museum purchased three manuscripts from the colle<5lion, but the Journal of the Siege was not one of them, and no trace has been found of the purchaser. 168.

Bougainville, Journal of. — Manuscript in the posses- sion of Madame de Saint Sauveur Bougainville, MANUSCRJITS 6S For the following particulars regarding this important manuscript we are indebted to M. R. de Keiallain, of Quimper, France. l^ Journal de Bougainville est loul enlier de sa main, sau/du 12 au 26 mars et le 24 avril 1757, \^ Journal en question, pareil k celui de Montcalm, comrae genre et comme dimensions couvrirait 400 ou 450 pages du volume consacrC d Montcalm. Voici approximativement comment il se r^partit : 1° Du 12 mai 1756 d la fin de cette mfime ann^e, Bougainville ^crit a sa fa9on, ce qu'il voit. ses deux journaux diflf^rents. 2° Du ler Janvier au 12 mars 1757, ils se suivent paralI61ement et racontent les mfimes choses avec un peu plus ou moins de details, en termes plus ou moins difF^rents, comme si I'un d'eux avait Tautre sous Its yeux et le traduisait 4 sa mani^re. 3° Du 12 au 26 mars et le 24 avril, les journaux sont copies Tun sur Tautre; I'&riture est d'un copiste. Quel est celui qui a dictg le texte original ? Je ne le sais pas. Je crois que c'est Montcalm, bien que certaines expressions semblent de Bougainville. A noter que, du 20 au 26 mars, Bougainville rature et corrige le texte du copiste ; mais les surcharges ne passent point dans le journal c' Montcalm. Apr6s quoi journaux reprennent leur marche parall^e, Bougainville 6crivant toujours de sa main. 4° Du 12 juillet au 8 aofit. Ici, Bougainville est I'auteur. Son journal devicnt un petit cahier de poche pour porter en campagne. C'est lui qui r6dige, corrige, rature, et le copiste de Montcalm reproduit tel qu'il est le texte corrig6, sans mfime prendre la peine de changer les personnes des verbes et de rappeler que c'est Bougainville qui se met lui-meme en sc6ne, comme i propos de la capitulation du fort Georges. S" Jusqu'd la fin d'aoflt, le journal redevient tout distinct, comme en 1756. e" Du ler septembre 1757 au 21 juin 1758, marche parallJle. 7° Du22juiaau 14 octobre 1758, Bougainville redevient I'auteur du journal. Mais le scribe de Montcalm change les personnes des verbes, comme si Montcalm dictait. 5 iii-Mwiii — s,^-*-""-"-'"-^'-^^-^"--'-^---- il, i ^ ;; M / I ! 66 MANt'SCRIPTS 8° Le journal s'arrcte d la rentiC-e en France. Je crois que la fin du journal de Montcalm, aprds sa mort, est ue Montbeillard. En resume, Bougainville est parti de Fr* e en 1756, sans avoir I'id^e de faire un journal. II s'est mis a noter quelques dates en dtbar- quant : puis peu A pen, s'est mis A ^crirc son journal d I'imitation de son chef, nidis son journal d lui. L'hiver vcnu, et les gens d'alors n'airaant pas d raconter leurs petites histoires personnelles, Bougainville a dO se reldcher de .son z&le et il n 'aura probablementtenu son journal au courant qu'en relisant parfois celui de Montcalm, et meme en en faisant copier quelques pages. Mais, en temps de carapagne, Montcalm n'ayant plus le loisir d'<5crire ni de dieter, c'est Bougainville qui devient I'auteur, Vhistoriographe Cl^ I'^tat-major. II 6crit, r^dige, rature, critique, incri- mine Montcalm se borne d faire copier. For fac-simile of page of this Journal, see under Journal of Montcalm. 28. Bougainville. — Correspondance de. The various letters printed under this title in the fourth volume of " The Siege of Quebec " have not hitherto been published. They form a part of a valuable collection of manuscripts in the possession of Madame de Saint Sauveur Bougainville. An official copy of the Correspondance was obtained from the Domi- nion Archives at Ottawa and duly printed, after having been carefully compared with the copies by Monscigneur Laflamme, Dean of the Faculty of Arts, Laval University. Monsieur R. de Kerallain 01 Quimper, France, very kindly offered to compare the printed sheets with the originals v/hich are in his po.ssession. So many errors exist in the copy received fiom Ottawa, and many phrases are omitted, that it was found necessary to reprint them. The official copies in Ottawa cannot therefore be consi- dered reliable. No. 1. Montcalm d Bougainville — Camp de Beauport le 11 juillet 1759, Ms. about 50 words.

Many portions of this J ^al appear to have been copied by the original compiler of the Jo .»ial from the manuscript of Bougainville and it is often difficult to determine who is the author. Several phrases which would fall naturally from the lips of Bougain- ville, a subordinate officer, obtain a different significance when proceeding from Montcalm. As an example of the similarity of the Journals we quote a passage from page 429 of the Journal of Montcalm, and publish a fac-simile of the entry in Bougainville's own hand in his Journal of the same date.

Drawn from the Original Surveys taken by the Engineers of the army. Engraved by Thomas Jefferys, Geographer to His Majesty." This plan measures 34 inches within the border. There is a second plate overlying the first, showing the progress of the battle. This plan is considered by competent authorities to be the most valuable engraved plan of the operations against Quebec, in existence. 128 PLANS AND KNC.RAVINC.S The late Abbe Verreau considered it of great importance. A small journal accompanies the plan in which there are 75 references. The plan is exceedingly scarce, and differs materially from any other plans jiublished by Jefferys. A copy of the plan was catalogued in London by Ily. Stevens, Sons & Stiles some years ago at £\2. 10. o. This plan is not mentioned in Faribault, or Gagnon. 2. " Plan of the Town of Quebec, the Capital of Canada in North America with the Bason and a part of the Adjacent Country Shewing the principal Encamp- ments and Works of the British Army Commanded by Major General Wolfe, and those of the French Army Commanded by Lieut.

Known as the King's Map. The original is beautifully coloured and would require 30 jjr-ntings. The works constru(5ted by the British amiy between the 30th. of September 1759 and April 1760 are given. 4. " Plan o^ Quebec with the position of the British and French armies on the Heights of Abraham, 13''' Sept. 1 759-" This is a portion of the King's Map, 14 ft. x 5, in the British Museum. The plan is in colours and is probably the most detailed and complete plan made of the operations of the British before Quebec. The streams, brooks, hillocks, cultivated and waste ground are shown, the beaches at low and high water, the method and direction of the firing from the batteries the principal buildings in the city, the battle of the 13th, and the works constructed after the battle are clearly indicated. The references are in figures, and the index is on the side of the plan. This is the only plan which gives the exadl number of troops in the British line of battle -311 men. It also marks the exact spot where General Wolfe fell. s an exceedingly valuable plan and has never been published. A copy of this map is in the possession of the authors. 5.

Attached to the original there is another plan. Although small, the plan appears to be accurate, and refers to the position of affairs till the ist August 1759. An engraving was made of this plan by Perrier. 11. Plan of the city of Quebec showing positions of the British and French armies and the advance by each army after the line was formed on the 13* of Septem- ber, 1759. The positions on this plan were determined from several manuscript plans of the battle by British officers in 1759 and 1760. Note, This plan is a reconstruction on a large scale of the land between the city walls and Wolfe's Cove. The position of each regi- ment, both French and English has been determined by scientific measurements of manuscript plans made at the time of the battle by the Engineers of Wolfe's Staff. The outline map of the city which forms the basis of this plan is by M. Cusson, C. E. <> l^ •32 PLANS AND ENGRAVINGS Since tht battle of 1759, the ground to the west of the city wall has l)een laid out in streets, and now forms an important part of the city. Without such assistance as this plan affords, the student would have Kreat difficulty in marking the exact site of the battle. The plan was drawn by (1. K. St Michel, and the positions were determined by M. Ivlzear Charest, .\rchitect and Engineerof the Govern- ment of the Province of Quebec, and M. L. A. Valine C.

No " description of Wolfe's Campaign at Quebec, could give .so accurate an " idea of it as is derived from this Plan, and without it the best descrip- " tion would be very imperfect.— Faribailt. 13.

A View of the Taking of Quebec, Septem- ber 13*'' 1759- ^"^ de la Prise de Quebec le 13 Sep- tembre, 7759. 18^ in. long hy 12% tall, with % to }i inch margin, coloured by hand ; together with a copy of the London Magazine reprint. This is a perspc(5tive view, showing in the foreground the British forces being brought from the ships and lanff^'d at the foot of the heights. The soldiers are seen scaling the heights contested by the French. At the top the battle is in full progress. The view of the City in the middle ground and the surrounding country is fairly well drawn, but the fore- ground is ludicrously out of proportion. This rare print is apparently the original from which the reduced copy (10 x 6)i) in the London Magazine, 1760, was made; a copy of which is included with this original nov; in possession of the authors.
