Column erected at St. Foye, Near Quebec, in memory of the French and English who fell there in 1760, (1864). Engraving from a photograph by M. Livernois. 'A Monument has lately been erected at St. Foye, a village near Quebec, in commemoration of the French and English who fell there in 1760, during the second siege of the city. It is constructed of cast iron, bronzed, and rests on a stone base. Its height is 60 ft., and it is crowned by a draped statue of Bellona, in bronze, sent to Canada from France, a present from Prince Napoleon. The pedestal is enriched with relievi, encircling, on one side, the name of Murray, the General who led the defence; and on the opposite side that of Levis, commander of the French troops. M. Charles Baillargis was the architect...The monument was inaugurated with great eclat by Lord Monck, Governor-General of Canada, on the 19th of October last'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864
