Note 917 — Chapter VII
Reading edition
John Marshall’s diary under March, 1707, notes the disinclination of the people to agree with the determination of the General Court to make a descent on Port Royal. (Mass. Hist. Soc. Proc., April, 1884, p. 159.) There are in the Collection de Manuscrits, etc. (Quebec, 1884), two papers on this matter: one dated Port Royal, June 26, 1707, “Entreprise des Anglois contre l’Acadie” (vol. ii. p. 464); the other dated July 6, “Entreprise des Bastonnais sur l’Acadie par M. Labat” (p. 477).
