| Notes | -
Date attributed on stylistic grounds and from the depiction of extensive defences at "Anse de la Cormorandière" (lacking at the Siege of Louisbourg in 1745) and the mention of Sr. (?) "Julien" and Sr. (?) Joubert (amongst other names) in the text. However, previous British Library cataloguing attributes a date of 1745.
