They climb to the Plains of Abraham . At 6 a.m., Marquis de Montcalm is informed that the British have accomplished what he deemed impossible but discredits the report. With 4,500, he fights about an equal number but his men cannot resist bayonets. Each leader receives a mortal wound. Wolfe asks an officer to support him so that his followers may not be discouraged by his fall. An historian says of Wolfe He crowded into a few hours actions that would have given lustre to length of life and, filling his day with greatness, completed it before its noon. Learning that he had but a few hours to live, Montcalm says So much the better I shall not live to see the surrender of Quebec. Turning to de Ramsay he says To your keeping I commend the honor of France as for me, I shall pass the night with God and prepare myself for death. Friday September 14 Montcalm dies in the Castle of St. Louis. Monday September 17 Capitulation of Quebec. Tuesday September 18 The British take possession of Quebec.
