Battle at St Croix (1750)

The Battle at St. Croix happened during Father Le Loutre's War between New England Rangers and the Mi'kmaq. To capture the Acadians involved in the British defeat at the Fort Logis, Grand Pre the previous year, Cornwallis sent John Gorham to Piziquid to construct Fort Edward and imprison the Acadians. After two days of marching from Fort Sackville (present day Bedford), they come to the St Croix River. At the river a battle broke out with the Mi'kmaq. Gorham took over a saw mill and two local Acadian homes for protection. The Mi'kmaq numbers continued to grow, therefore Gorham sent a messenger to Fort Sackville for reinforcements.

gollark: ```javascriptsetInterval(() => { const nextPipe = pipes[0] const nheight = nextPipe.len + nextPipe.gap() // height is apparently from the top console.log(bird.height, nheight) if (bird.height > (nheight - 100)) { jump = true }}, 100)start()```
gollark: Based on testing of my artificial intelligence™, I think the issue is that it is really stupid and does not look into the future at all.
