The New Hampshire Gazette And Historical Chronicle

The Boundary Line between the Provinces of New-York and Quebeck (the Name now given to all Canada) is fixed at Latitude 45 Deg. which crosses Lake Champlain, about two and a half Miles North of Wind-Mill Point, and is distinguished by Openings made on each Side of the Lake, where several Trees are girded and square Posts set up, marked with the Letters N and Q pointing to the respective Governments.

The Opening on the West Side of the Lake is at a low remarkable Point of Land, which was then, by the Gentlemen present, named Moore's Point, in Respect to his Excellency, Sir Henry Moore our Governor.

His Excellency, and General Carleton, Lieutenant Governor of Quebeck, were each attended by several Gentlemen from their respective Governments While his Excellency was at Windmill Point, Several Gentlemen from Quebeck, took the Opportunity to wait on him, and acquaint him with their Claims, by Grants from the French King, of all the Lands in those Parts, on both Sides the Lake, as far South as Crown-Point, or farther.--We are informed they very much insisted upon their Right, from these Grants, and that his Excellency was pleased to acquaint them that the Determination would be left to the King and Council.

Should the Claims of these Incroachments be admitted, it is hardly to be doubted but they may produce Grants for all the Lands to the North of Fort Edward.
