This zigzag wooden wall was, of course, well loopholed. In front of it was its zigzag ditch ; and in front of the 84 THE PASSING OF NEW FRANCE ditch were fallen trees, with their branches carefully trimmed and sharpened, and pointing outwards against the enemy. To make sure that his men should know their places in battle Montcalm held a short rehearsal. Then all fell to work again with shovel, pick, and axe. Presently five hundred British Indians under Sir William Johnson appeared on Rattlesnak...e Hill and began to amuse themselves by firing off their muskets, which, of course, were per- fectly useless at a distance of a mile. In the meantime Abercromby had drawn back his men from the woods and had made up his mind to take the short cut through the valley and rebuild the bridge which Montcalm had destroyed. This took up the whole morning ; and it was not till noon that the British advance gtaard began to drive in the French outposts. A few shots were heard. The outposts came back to the trenches.
