Note 1534 — Chapter VIII · (continued 3)

Mante’s account is copied in Hough’s St. Lawrence and Franklin Counties, p. 89, where the passage down the St. Lawrence is treated at length. Dr. Hough judges the account of the taking of Fort Lévis, as given by David Humphrey in his Works (New York, 1804, p. 280), to be mostly fabulous. Hough (p. 704) also prints Governor Colden’s proclamation on the capture. Pouchot gives a plan of the attack. There are various documents, French and English, in Collection de documents (Quebec), iv. 245, 283, 297.
