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.
