Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the Commissioners for Queen Victoria Niagara Falls Park, 1896
A few days afterwards General Drummond abandoned the seige, the post remaining in possession of the Americans until November 15th, 1814, when it was evacuated and blown up by them. Fort Erie has since remained in a state of utter ruin and neglect; its con dition being a sad commentary upon the apathy that would deny proper care to a place rendered so sacred by such heroic displays of British valor and patriotism.
