To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
G 98 THE WINNING OF CANADA return for the kindness shown to Ochterloney, the General Hospital would be specially pro- tected if the British took Quebec. Towards the end of August Ochterloney died ; and both sides ceased firing while a French captain came out to report his death and return his effects.
This was by no means the only time the two enemies treated each other like friends. A party of French ladies were among the prisoners brought in to Wolfe one day ; and they cer- tainly had no caus...e to complain of him. He gave them a dinner, at which he charmed them all by telling them about his visit to Paris. The next morning he sent them into Quebec with his aide-de-camp under a flag of truce. Another time the French officers sent him a kind of wine which was not to be had in the British camp, and he sent them some not to be had in their own.
But the stem work of war went on and on, though the weary month of August did not seem to bring victory any closer than disastrous July. Wolfe knew that September was to be the end of the campaign, the now-or-never of his whole career.
