June 1776 CE

Arnold's troops catch up with the main army near Fort St. Jean on the 17th.

Sullivan's army is in no condition to fight, and after a brief council, the decision is made to retreat to Crown Point.

The army reportedly gets away from St. Jean almost literally moments before the vanguard of Burgoyne's army arrives on the scene.
