Conspiracy of Pontiac
The Seige of Detriot
Two batteaux, arranged like gunboats, accompanied the detachment, but St. Aubin does not think that the troops secured the dead and wounded in their retreat.
About nine o'clock on the morning after the battle, Pontiac sent for the
the Canadians near the bridge. "' Take these boats of mine, which lie in the creek " said he, "put these British dogs into them, and convey them to the fort. " The inhabitants, pleased at the opportunity, obeyed the orders with alacrity, and the dead were all buried in the cellar of Mr. Sterling, near where Baker's shop now is.
