"This rivers' junction two miles north was rendezvous
for Rogers Rangers after their destruction of St. Francis, Que., October 4, 1759. Pursuing Indians
and starvation had plagued their retreat and more tragedy awaited here. The expected rescue party
bringing food had come and gone. Many Rangers perished and early settlers found their bones along
these intervales." erected 1968 |
