«The Regulars marched as near as I could tell, six deep in close order, and reached about 20 rods in length. The Canadians and Indians at the left having come helter-skelter, the woods being full of them, running with undaunted courage right down hill upon us, expecting to make us flee as they had before done at the---------, and just now did to our men.»
Extrait d'une lettre du général américain Pomeroy, alors colonel dans les milices de New-York, à son épouse, en date du 10 septembre 1755.
