noon
When we had done this , we were to wait for the army to come up . In an hour 's time we got to the rising ground , and found quite a large body of French in front of us . We waited for further orders . At noon some provincial troops under Colonels Fitch and Lyman came up . And while Rogers was talking to them we heard a sharp firing in the rear of these troops . Rogers led us round to the left , and we met a force of the enemy who were fighting our men , and had thrown them into confusion . We engaged with them , and killed many .
