Note 25 — VOYAGES AND TRAVELS

Reading edition

The Mississagua Indians were first met by the French on the north shore of Lake Huron, and formed part of the Sault Ste. Marie mission (1670–73). Later, they removed to the lower Michigan peninsula, and some settled at Detroit. They now have a reservation in Eastern Ontario, and number about eight hundred.

The other Indians mentioned are those of the Jesuit mission villages. See Jesuit Relations (Thwaites’s ed., Cleveland, 1896–1901), index.—Ed.
