Excerpt from The Burgoyne Campaign: An Address Delivered on the Battle-Field on the One Hundredth Celebration of the Battle of Bemis Heights, September 19, 1877 The French settlements spread rapidly up the St. Lawrence and far into the western country, while the Dutch and Eng lish slowly and methodically pushed their way along the Hud son, and thence by the Mohawk to the great interior lakes. From the mouth of the Mohawk, northward, skirting the shores of the Hudson and the lakes, lay the highway between the rival settlements and posts. In its route it passed the carrying-places of the Indians. Over this road, then but an Indian trail, the troops of Frontenac passed in 1693, on their way to strike the fortified villages of the Mohawk. Upon it Colonel Schuyler built the forts from Stillwater to Fort Ann, in the war of 1709. In the campaigns of 1744 and 1755, the French and their Indian allies, with war-whoop, scalping - knife and tomahawk, swept down through the forests to the settlements of this region and in the seven years' war that followed, from 175 5 to 1763, it was by this road that Abercrombie led his troops to defeat and Amherst to the final triumph of the English arms and here. Again swept back and forth the tide of war in alter nate ebb and flow during the earlier period of the American Revolution.
