Note 300 — Chapter II
Reading edition
A sketch of the North American portion of the map, in the possession of the writer, was made for him by M. Eugene Beauvois, who has suggested that the map might belong to the period of De Monts, as near the region of Nova Scotia we read “C. de Môt.” This name, however, appears on the map of the Dauphin and various other maps. The map is found in Premieres Œuvres de Jacques de Vaulx, pilote pour le Roy en la marine française de Grace l’an 1584, preserved in the Bibliothèque Nationale, fond française, no. 9,175, folios 29-30.
