Letter from a gentleman in the Expedition against Belleisle,
to his friend, dated May 11.
Amidst the confused noise of a siege, the whistling of shot,
the bursting of shells, the follies of small arms, drums and
fifes, &c. &c. &c. I have selected this opportunity of
telling you, I am well, tho' fatigued and harassed to death. 
The island is all our own, except Chateau Palais, a d--
strong fortification. . .
