=Ticonderoga.= Known to the French as Carillon. Built by Lotbiniere in
1755-1756, on a promontory at the southern end of Lake Champlain, where
it formed the advanced post of the French, and guarded the frontier from
British attack. Abercromby brought an army against it in 1758, and was
badly beaten by Montcalm. The following year Amherst captured the fort,
Bourlamaque retreating down the lake with his force. In 1775 it was
taken by the Americans, under Ethan Allen; and recaptured in 1777 by
Burgoyne, remaining in the possession of the British until the close of
the war. When the boundary was settled, it became the property of the
United States. =Index=: =Ch= Scene of fight with Iroquois, 54. =Hd=
