Ctuuanlata and OSto sew la the Greet Lakes. W. 8. Harwood writes in St. Nicho las of “The Gnat Lakes” Mr. Har wood says: Jacques Cartier, who shipped from St Mato in 1554, explored the coast of Newfoundland and made the circuit cd the gulf at St Lawrence, and be did much also, too, for New France in open tog up negotiations with the many tribes of Indians who thronged thousand* strong and Mendly from all the regions in and about Quebec and Montreal and Ottawa and Kingston. Another mariner of St Malo—Francis Greve—began the colonization of the land. About 1570, in France, Samuel de Champlain was born, and when be reached the age of early manhood he. too. joined in the new world exploration in the region above the great lakes The kings of France were much interested in the new land and did all in their power not only to explore the region, but to colo nise and develop it Champlain, in 1615, made an expedition up the Ottawa river and penetrated as far as into Georgian bay, thus touching on the wa ters of Lake Huron. In 1618 Etienne Brule, an old inter preter, came into Champlain’s camp with the news of the discovery of Lake Superior. Lake Erie, with Ontario, was probably discovered some time earlier than thia Nicollet, in 1634, started in * a canoe from the bead of Georgian bay, skirted the eastern and northern shores of Huron and at last found himself at Gault Ste. Marie, or the falls of St 1 Mary, now shortened to “Soo”—the I first white man, it is believed, to reach this key to the noble lake beyond. He > went as far as Green bay, on Lake Mich igan, and so the various lakes at last 1 came into the actual knowledge of the explorers and were no longer myths.

English began to take deep interest in the region—an interest little less marked ' than that they were then taking in » their schemes of coicniratfai in Vir r ginia and Massachusetts. Again and r again through the years that follow the . threads cross and recross, not weaving 1 a beautiful garment cf harmony, but tangling in a wretched snarl, a patch work of disputes between the nations Entanglement followed entangle i meat, wan harassed the land, until at last the English were masters of the northern lake region for all time —un- -1 less some day we shell see the stars and 1 stripes floating from the heights of r Quebec. > VW bivvntor of -Larrikin." > The real origin and patentee cf the word i “larrikin” was an Irish reporter named O'Hea, who was employed on the Mel- * bourns Argus in the early seventies.
