Note 1464 — Chapter VIII · (continued 3)

Called “Molong” by the early chroniclers on the English side, and even by Tarbox, in his Life of Putnam. Parkman says Humphreys’ account of the battle is erroneous at several points. There are details in Rogers’ Journals; in a record by Thomson Maxwell in the Hist. Coll. of the Essex Institute, vii. 97; in Gentleman’s Mag., 1758, p. 498; in Boston Gazette, no. 117; in N. H. Gazette, no. 104; beside, on the French side, in the Paris documents of the Parkman MSS. Cf. account of the ground in Lossing’s Field-Book of the Rev., i. 140, and Holden’s Queensbury, p. 325. A letter of Oliver Partridge, Sept., 1758 (Israel Williams MSS.), describes the movements of Rogers.
