[N] M. GARNEAU, in his _Histoire du Canada_, says:--"The two Brigadier-Generals, M. de Semezergues and the Baron de St. Ours, fell mortally wounded; and MONTCALM (who had already received two wounds), while exerting himself to the utmost to rally his troops and preserve order in the retreat, was also mortally wounded in the loins by a musket-ball. He was at that moment between _Les Buttes-a-Neveu_ and St. Louis Gate." From the city, on the one side, and from the battle-field, on the other, the ground rises until the two slopes meet and form a ridge; the summit of which was formerly occupied by a windmill belonging to a man named _Neveu_ or _Nepveu_. About midway between this ridge and St. Louis Gate, and to the southward of the St. Louis Road, are some slight eminences, still known by the older French residents as _Les Buttes-a-Nepveu_ or _Neveu's hillocks_, and about three-quarters of a mile distant from the spot where the British line charged.--R. S. BEATSON. [O] For these particulars I am indebted to my friend Mr. G. B. Faribault--a gentleman well known in Canada for his researches into the history of the Colony; whose information on this subject was derived from his much respected fellow-citizen the Hon. John Malcolm Frazer--grandson of one of WOLFE'S officers, and now (1854) one of the oldest inhabitants of Quebec; where, in his childhood and youth, he had the facts, as above narrated, often described to him by an elderly woman who, when about eighteen years of age, was an eye-witness of the scene.--R. S. BEATSON. [P] This bakehouse appears to have been some where at the foot of Abraham's hill. [Q] The excavations of these French works are very visible to this day behind Mr. G. H. Parke's residence, Ringfield, Charlesbourg road. The hornwork appears to have covered about twelve acres of ground, surrounded by a ditch. [R] It crossed the St. Charles a little higher up than the Marine Hospital, at the foot of Crown street.--(J. M. L.) [S] A small bridge supported on masonry has since been built at this spot, exactly across the main road at Brown's mills.--(J. M. L.) [T] The deliberations of the council of war, called at M. Daine's, Mayor of Quebec, on the 15th September, 1759, published in de Ramsay's Memoires, in 1861, by the Literary and Historical Society, have done an effective, though a tardy, justice to de Ramsay's memory.--(J.

Punctuation and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed. Text contains apparent parenthesized references to a map, but this book contained no maps, diagrams, or illustrations. Page 3: "heartily" was misprinted as "heartly". Page 3: "buried there magnificently" was misprinted as "their". Page 8: "without trembling." should be punctuated with a question mark. Page 28: "analize" was printed that way.
