Description
Excerpt: A motley and picturesque?looking crowd had gathered within the walls of Fort Richelieu to attend the annual distribution of powder and lead, to take Part 1n the winter drills and target practice, and to join in the Christmas festivities, that would last until the fast?approaching New Year. Coureurs des bois from the Western country, scouts, hunters, trappers, militiamen, and habitants from the surrounding settlements, Indian warriors from the neighbouring tribe of friendly Abenakis, were all placed under the military instruction of the company of regular marine infantry that garrisoned the fort constructed in 1665, by M. de Saurel, at the mouth of the Richelieu River, where it flows into the waters of the St. Lawrence, forty?five miles below Montreal.
