Description
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.
Few, if any, of the early events properly be longing to the pages of American history are of more interest and importance after the discovery of the New World than are those relating to the journeyings, the explorations, and the discoveries of Stephen Brule.
What this daring Frenchman accomplished in the (then) inhospitable wilds of What is now the northern portion of our country, and in the southern and western parts of the pres ent Dominion of Canada, has not hitherto been given in detail by any historian.
Brule was essentially a woodsman: his fondness for savage life was remarkable.
But he wrote nothing; and his verbal recitals, as they were taken down from his own lips, and recorded by Champlain, Sagard and Le Caron, are not calcu lated to awaken at once the thought that they bor der on the marvelous.
However, as we contem plate more and more his courage and perseverance among the Indian nations which he Visited and with some of which he lived several years, our curiosity gives way to admiration and astonishment.
