John Kennedy Lacock Braddock Road Postcard No. 17: Little Meadows, 20 miles west from Cumberland, Md.
1908
Frostburg, MDCaption:
The Little Meadows Farm of over 1200 acres is now owned by D. F. Kuykendall, Cumberland, Md. This is the place of the fourth encampment. On June 18, 1755, the entire force had reached 'Little Meadows.' Here, at a council of war, it was determined that the General and Colonel Halket, with a detachment of the best men of the two regiments, being in all about 1400, lightly encumbered, should move forward. Colonel Dunbar with the residue, about 900, and the heavy baggage, stores, and artillery was to advance by 'Slow and easy marches.' (See Cumberland Road Series)
