Three escape routes

The map identifies each group’s escape route. The westernmost, under Sergeant Collins, crosses the border at St-Armand; the second, identified as Young and McGrorty's, crosses at Freligsburgh; the third, led by Teavis, enters at Abbot's Corner, skirts Mount Pinnacle, reaches Abercorn and then heads north up the Sutton River Valley.
