To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Cannon on two Batteries. No Bomb proofs.
Eedoubt No. 2. The same as No. 1. No Bomb Proofs.
Redoubt No. 3. a slight Wood Work 3 Feet thick, very Dry, no Bomb Proofs, a single Abattis, the work easily set on fire— no cannon.
Redoubt No. 4, a Wooden work about 10 feet high and fore or five feet thick, the West faced with a stone wall 8 feet high and four thick. No Bomb Proof, two six- pounders, a slight Abattis, a commanding piece of ground 500 yards Wt.
The North Redoubt, on the East side, built ...of stone 4 feet high; above the Stone, wood filled in with Earth, very Dry, no Ditch, a Bomb Proof, three Batteries with- out the Fort, a poor Abattis, a Rising piece of ground 500 yards So., the approaches Under Cover to within 20 yards.— The Work easily fired with Faggots diptd in Pitch, &c.
South Redoubt, much the same as the North, a Comand- ing piece of ground 500 yards due East— 3 Batteries with- out the Fort." These were all in Arnold's writing save the fourth, and the sixth alone was of sufficient moment to warrant more than the briefest syllabus of its contents; and even this last, one would think, might have been digested into a compact note, incomprehensible without a clue.
