batteries of the town. The official
correspondence of Vaudreuil for 1759 (Archives Nationales)
gives the events of the time from his point of view; and various
manuscript letters of Bigot, Levis, Montreuil, and others (Archives
de la Marine, Archives de la Guerre) give additional particulars.
The letters, generally private and confidential, written to Bourlamaque
by Montcalm, Levis, Vaudreuil, Malartic, Berniers, and others during
the siege contain much that is curious and interesting.

_Siege de Quebec en 1759, d'apres un Manuscrit depose a la
Bibliotheque de Hartwell en Angleterre._ A very valuable diary,
by a citizen of Quebec; it was brought from England in 1834 by
the Hon. D.B. Viger, and a few copies were printed at Quebec in
1836. _Journal tenu a l'Armee que commandoit feu M. le Marquis
de Montcalm._ A minute diary of an officer under Montcalm
(printed by the Quebec Historical Society). _Memoire sur la Campagne
de 1759, par M. de Joannes, Major de Quebec_ (Archives de la Guerre).
_Lettres et Depeches de Montcalm_ (Ibid.). These touch briefly
the antecedents of the Siege. _Memoires sur le Canada depuis 1749
jusqu'a_ 1760 (Quebec Historical Society). _Journal du Siege de
Quebec en 1759, par M. Jean Claude Panet, notaire_ (Ibid.). The
writer of this diary was in Quebec at the time. Several other journals
and letters of persons present at the siege have been printed by the
Quebec Historical Society, under the title _Evenements de la Guerre
en Canada durant les Annees 1759 et 1760. Relation de ce qui s'est
passe au Siege de Quebec, par une Religieuse de l'Hopital General
de Quebec_ (Quebec Historical Society). _Jugement impartial
sur les Operations militaires de la Campagne, par M'gr. de Pontbriand,
Eveque de Quebec_ (Ibid.). _Memoirs of the Siege of Quebec, from
the Journal of a French Officer on board the Chezine Frigate, taken
by His Majesty's Ship Rippon, by Richard Gardiner, Esq., Captain of
Marines in the Rippon,_ London, 1761.

_General Wolfe's Instructions to Young Officers,_ Philadelphia,
1778. This title is misleading, the book being a collection of military
orders. _General Orders in Wolfe's Army_ (Quebec Historical
Society). This collection is much more full than the foregoing,
so far as concerns the campaign of 1759. _Letters of Wolfe_ (in
Wright's _Wolfe_), _Despatches of Wolfe, Saunders, Monckton, and
Townshend_ (in contemporary magazines). _A Short Authentic
Account of the Expedition against Quebec,
