Note 29 — DE BIENVILLE (continued 2)

Note 29: (retour) "On the next morning, we attempted to land our men, but by a storm were prevented, few of the boats being able to row ahead, and found it would endanger our men, and wet our arms; at which time the vessel Capt. Savage was in went ashore, the tide fell, left them dry, the ennemy came upon them." (Journal du major Whalley, commandant en chef des troupes de terre.)
