General Schuyler becomes too ill to continue…

September 1775 CE

General Schuyler becomes too ill to continue following this first skirmish, so he turns command over to Montgomery.

Schuyler leaves for Fort Ticonderoga several days later.

After another false start, and the arrival of another eight hundred to one thousand men from Connecticut, New Hampshire, and New York, as well as some of the Green Mountain Boys, Montgomery finally begins besieging Fort Saint-Jean on September 17, cutting off its communications with Montreal and capturing supplies intended for the fort.
