Conspiracy of Pontiac
The Seige of Detriot
The commandant was killed in the retreat, and his head was placed upon the pickets at the farm of Chene, above the town. Mr. St. Aubin went to the battle ground in the morning, and saw upon the bridge a great number of dead bodies. They were so numerous that he could not cross the bridge. He supposes that there were about a hundred. Only seventeen returned to the fort.
The principal Indian encampment was at this time at Grand Marais, but an advanced guard was established at Meloche's.
