Conspiracy of Pontiac
The Seige of Detriot
The vessel was not considered absolutely necessary to the defence of the fort. She was generally anchored, however, before the water-gate. The fort was picketed entirely around with pickets, twelve [?] above the ground, except on the water side, where they were not quite so high, and smaller.
As the season was growing late, the Indians became desirous to go to their wintering grounds. They left the siege without holding any council, or sending any message to the commandant.
