French Turn One
 |
| Rogers Rangers fired a long range volley from their rifles wounding one Frenchmen. The French Milice de Quebec 3/8 Compagnie returned fire on another Ranger Company, which had advanced out of their cover in the woods. The French volley killed one Ranger. French KIA 1, British KIA |
 |
| Meanwhile at Fort Oswego the alarm is sounded and the Milice
companies rush to their posts… |
 |
| After
receiving Colonel Pontleroy's messenger and hearing the firing getting
more voluminous, Colonel Prudhomme, at Fort Ontario, sent most of his
Milice de Montreal regiment to cover the bridge across the
Mohawk River. He plans on protecting the bridge in case the
French forces, in Fort Oswego, need to cross the river to beat a hasty
retreat. |
