Battle narrative of Wolfe Montcalm at St Charles

The account recalls the 1759 battle near Quebec with General Wolfe leading British forces against French troops under Montcalm. It details heavy casualties on both sides, the fall of Wolfe, Montcalm's wounding and death, and the subsequent British march toward the town as defenders retreated. It also notes surrounding Canadian units and the town's surrender observed later that month.
