Sketched from a manuscript plan noted in the _Sparks Catalogue_ (p. 208), which belongs to Cornell University, and was kindly communicated to the editor. The original (18½ × 15 inches) is marked as "on a scale of 30 chaines to an Inch", and is signed "E. Antill ft." in the corner. Mr. Sparks has marked it "Siege of Quebec, 1776." It is endorsed on the outside, "Gen^l Arnold's plan of Quebec, with y^e Americans besieging it, y^e winter of 1776." It bears the following Key: "H, Headquarters. A, A, A, advanced guards. B, B, B, main guards. C, C, C, quarter guards. D, Capt. Smith's riflemen. E, cul-de-sac, where the men-of-war lay, F, governor's house. G, where all materials are carried to build our batteries, out of view of the town. I, lower town. K, the barrier, near which General Montgomery fell. K L, the dotted line shews the route the troops took under the general, thro' deep snow without any path." The dotted line in the river marks the extent of ice from the shore, and in the open stream are the words: "(Unfrose) Ice driving with y^e Tide." The roads are marked by broken lines – – – – – – –. The position of patrols are marked by the letter P. The principal engraved map is a _Plan of the city and environs of Quebec with its siege and blockage by the Americans from the 8th of December, 1775, to the 13th of May, 1776_. _Engraved by Wm. Faden, London; published 12 Sept., 1776._ The original MS. draft is among the Faden maps (no. 20) in the library of Congress. There are other plans as follows: _Mag. of Amer. Hist._, April, 1884, p. 282; Leake's _Life of Lamb_, p. 130; Atlas to Marshall's _Washington_; Carrington's _Battles_, p. 138; Stone's _Invasion of Canada_, p. xvii.; a marginal plan in Sayer and Bennett's _New Map of the Province of Quebec_, published Feb. 16, 1776; and a German "Plan von Quebec" in the _Geschichte der Kriege in und ausser Europa_, Nuremberg, 1777, Dritter Theil. There is a marginal map of Quebec in an edition of Carver's map of the Province of Quebec, published by Le Rouge in Paris in 1777, and included in the _Atlas Ameriquain_ (1778). For views of Quebec and the points of attack, see Moore's _Diary of the Rev._, i. 185; Lossing's _Field-Book_, i. 198; and _Mag. of Amer. Hist._, April, 1884, p. 274. A view of the plains of Abraham is in _Ibid._, p. 296.] The retreat continued to Crown Point, and in July Sullivan was relieved by Gates; and the campaign was over,—nothing accomplished. On July 26th Governor Trumbull reviews the condition of the army in a letter in Hinman's _Conn. during the Rev._ (p. 560).[653] The letters of Ira Allen and John Hurd express the uneasy state of mind along the frontier, which now took possession of the exposed settlers (_N. H. Prov. Papers_, viii. pp. 301, 306, 311, 315-317, 405). Insecurity was felt at Ticonderoga (_N. H. State Papers_, viii. 576, 581).
