Note 1117 — Chapter VIII

See papers on the early routes between the Ohio and Lake Erie in Mag. of Amer. Hist., i. 683, ii. 52 (Nov., 1877, and Jan., 1878); and also in Bancroft’s United States, orig. ed., iii. 346. For the portage by the Sandusky, Sciota, and Ohio rivers, see Darlington’s ed. of Col. James Smith’s Remarkable Occurrences, p. 174. The portages from Lake Erie were later discovered than those from Lake Michigan. For these latter earlier ones, see Vol. IV. pp. 200, 224. Cf. the map from Colden given herewith.
