This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ...published under the superintendence of these authors, it is sufficiently clear that in the latter part of the seventeenth century the principal residence of the Isa'nyati Sioux, that is of the Mdewakantonwan, Warpetonwan, and Sissitonwan, (called by Hennepin Chongasketons, and by La Hontan Songasketons) was about the head waters of Rum river, whence they extended their hunts to the St. Croix and Mississippi rivers and Grosei11lers and Radlsson. down the latter nearly or quite as far as the mouth of the Wisconsin.

The Assiniboin, called by the other Dakotas Hoheh, who, not long anterior to the time of which we are speaking, had separated from the Ihanktonwa-11, hunted to the north of the Sioux and of Lake Superior. A century later, the situation of these Indians was not very different, though they had all moved westwardly. Within the last hundred years, most of them have proceeded much farther in the same direction. Ye think it is sufliciently manifest that the Sioux occupied the better part of Minnesota when Europeans entered it, a little after the middle of the seventeenth century. It does not, however, appear that they were the first, much less the 0nly inhabitants of the country. Their common and most reliable traditions inform us, that when their ancestors first came to the Falls of St....
