Opis

Excerpt from Count Frontenac and New France Under Louis XIV, Vol. 2 of 2: France and England in North America The conduct of the New England commander in this afiair does him no credit. It is true that no blood was spilt, and no revenge taken for the repeated butcheries of unofiending and defenceless settlers. It is true, also, that the French appear to have acted in bad faith. But Phips, on the other hand, displayed a scandalous rapacity. Charlevoix says that be robbed Meneval of all his money; but Meneval himself afirms that he gave it to the Eng lish commander for safe-keeping, and that Phips and his wife would return neither the money nor vari ous other articles belonging to the captive governor, whereof the following are specified: Six silver spoons, six silver forks, one silver cup in the shape of a gondola, a pair of pistols, three new wigs, a gray vest, four pairs of silk garters, two dozen of shirts, six vests of dimity, four night-caps with lace edgings, all my table service of fine tin, all my kitchen linen.
