13th September

Death of General James Wolfe

The Death of General Wolfe by Edward Penny (1714-1791). Source: ArtUK website

On this day in 1759, General James Wolfe was killed at the Battle of the Plains of Abraham at the very moment of British victory. The battle was the climax of the Seven Years War in North America and comprised the final defence by France of its most populous colony, that of Quebec. The town was well defended atop the precipitate Heights of Abraham, but the precociously brilliant Wolfe (he was 32), the commander of the attacking British forces, had a detachment of soldiers scale the Heights and attack the French in the flank, even as they were drawn up to face the main British army approaching them across the Plains. The sneak attack demoralised the French troops, who eventually broke and fled. Wolfe however received his third and final wound even as the enemy scattered. The general lived long enough to ask if the battle was won. When assured it was, he said ‘I die contented’ and promptly expired. The victory for which Wolfe became famous led to the conquest of Canada by Britain and the end of the French empire in North America.

Thursday: You were the leader of a cult, James? What's up with that?

Jim: Okay but why are we acting like this is a big deal? Isn't that the same as what we have going on here?

Thursday: ...You know what. This is true. Very true. I mean, kind of true. James. Don't get all smart on us like that. What was your cult all about anyway?

Jim: ...I can't tell you that.

Thursday: What? Why not?

Jim: Because I'd have to kill you.

Thursday: Okay, so? I'll just respawn. Tell me anyway.

Jim: Pfffhwah- Okay, wow! So it was just me going to work every day. And I was the manager.

Thursday: Really? That's it?

Jim: Yep.

Thursday: (laughing) No way you were the manager! I call bull!

Jim: Heh? I'm literally standing right here telling you what cult I was the leader of!

Thursday: Yeah! And I'm telling you you're full of shit, James!

Jim: Yeah, okay, it's all made up. I wasn't the leader of any cult. My Narrator just claimed I was. So sue me, Miss Narrator!

Thursday: No. I wouldn't get anything out of you.
