A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

To HELP pass the long, dreary evenings of a Mackinac winter, was compiled the following Annals :B esides information derived from official sources, including the records on file in -the Fort, the old books of the American Fur-C ompany, the records of the Village and County of Mackinac, and of the churches of Mackinac and St. I gnace; old documents in the hands of private individuals have been also examined and much matter obtained which it is believed has never before been in print. Most of the old records are in the French language, in the translation of which I have been assisted by Lieut. E. H. Plummer and Sergt. F. J. Grant. With some few exceptions, there are records for the years back to 1712. The are none for the years prior to 1695. At the last moment, much matter of a dry, statistical nature, derived from old records, and originally intended to be incorporated in this book, has been omitted, and matter which it is thought will be more acceptable to the general reader substituted.
