BLOCK ONE, CHIEF ENGINEER'S HOUSE and BLOCK ONE, BUANDERIE

According to Milward, writing to Gage:

Herewith I send to your Excellency a Return of the New Regulated Quarters for the officers of the Four Companys of the 59th Regiment, quartered here with the staff of the Garrison ...

Enclosure

Officers Quarters for the Garrison of Louisbourg as Regulated by major Milward and Mr Wm Russell Barracks Master, Louisbourg 25th June 1768.

The Mess House For the Lieut. Colonel when present, and Captain Wilson ...

... The above Quarters are rather too small for the Number of Officers Quartered in them, but we have fixt them as near as possible to the Regulations ... (1108)

1768 - AUGUST 10

Following the departure of the garrison, the Lieutenant Governor, Michael Franklin, wrote to the Earl of Hillsborough, on September 26, 1768, enclosing a plan of the Town of Louisbourg together with an actual state of the publick Buildings and other houses, corrected to the tenth of August last when His Majesty's Troops were withdrawn from thence ...

He was referring to Maps 1768-1/1768-1a (which was to be read together with this document) when he defined the following terms:

(1) Those Houses called in Good repair want much expense to make them really so

(2) Those called Tolerable are much out of repair

(3) Those called Bad have had for the most part the Floors partitions and windows taken away for fuel

(4) Those called in Ruins are totally irrepairable but yet the Materials will be of use to the Settlers who may have them

He then described each building according to the following criteria:

(1) Whether occupied by the French as private or public buildings

(2) In what repair

(3) Built of stone

OR

(4) Built of wood

(5) No. of the plan

(6) By whom at present occupied
