John. The particulars connected with this expedition are found in an unpublished document, of which the original is in the Public Record Office in London, entitled "Report of the Proceedings of the Troops on the Expedition up St. John's River in the Bay of Fundy under the command of Colonel Monckton." For a copy of this valuable paper I am indebted to Dr. W. F. Ganong.

These are to be found at such places as Bocabec, in Charlotte county, at Grand Lake in Queens county, and at various points along the St. John river. Dr. L. W. Bailey, Dr. Geo. F. Matthew, Dr. W. F.

Jack, to whose kindness and that of Dr.
