Bouquet and his troops were attacked by French and Indians at Loyalhanna, near present Ligonier, Pennsylvania, but the attack was repulsed and they continued on to Fort Duquesne, only to find it razed by the fleeing French.
Bouquet, who was in Philadelphia, threw together a hastily organized force of 500 men, most of them Scots Highlanders, to relieve the forts.
Bouquet is referred to in Conrad Richter's 1953 novel The Light in the Forest, which tells the story of one young man returned to his white family as part of the 1764 treaty.
