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 vollies of small arms,
drums and fifes, &c. &c. &c. I have selected this
opportunity of telling you, I am well, though fatigued and
harrassed to death.  The island is all our own, except
Chateau Palais, a d--'d strong fortification. . .
