The mainbody of troops, composed of British regulars andNew England militia, was to sail up the St. Lawrenceand attack Quebec, while the levies of New Yorkand the provinces farther south, aided, it was hoped,by the warriors of the Iroquois, were to advance onMontreal by way ofLake Champlain.Newcastle promised eight battalions of Britishtroops under Lieutenant-General Saint-Clair.Theywere to meet the New England men at Louisbourg,and all were then to sailtogether for Quebec, underthe escort of a squadron commanded by Warren.Shirley also was to go to Louisbourg, and arrangethe plan of the campaign with the general and theadmiral.
