Regarding the Battle of Fort Carillon, there were not any batteries installed by the French prior to the battle. The French batteries were installed subsequent to the British retreat. There are only two recorded instances of cannon fire during the battle. First, the French in the fort firing on Canadian militias retreating from the northern section of the entrenchment, and secondly the fort firing on and sinking a number of bateaux transporting cannon down the Chute river.MBruder (talk) 06:48, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
