How does Washington's account differ from the

newspaper account?

When we came there, we were attacked by a party

of French and Indians, whose number, I am

persuaded, did not exceed three hundred men;

while ours consisted of about one thousand three

hundred well-armed troops, chiefly regular

soldiers, who were struck with such a panic that

they behaved with more cowardice than it is

possible to conceive. The officers behaved

gallantly, in order to encourage their men, for

which they suffered greatly, there being near

sixty killed and wounded.

Washington explains how the battle began.

Washington identifies who attacked the British
