But perhaps the most important Story is that told by the Jesuit Ila Ligey e. 1648, accompanied by several Huron he advanced along the North Shore of the Gulf penetrated into eighty Days journey in Laniche came upon a solitary Baird of Savages who spoke Tho Huron Tongue with difficulty. From the chief Medicine men he they were descendants of a party of Huron who had fled from an inter tribal through cowardice but because they had taken wives from the band which the Huron s had attacked. Their fathers had met with Esqui Maux the two Peoples had been blended into one. They had preserved their language to some extent but the Esqui Maux Tongue was More familiar to. Them than the Huron.

It ran thus far Back in the past when the Esqui Maux thought they were the Only people on the Earth that the world was bounded by their familiar Fleet of strangers landed took Possession of a Beautiful country where the grass was Green. They built houses of Wood stones had flocks herds which their women watched while the men were fishing. Other fleets came after them the Esqui Maux thought this. New race was sent to drive them into the the sea but the strangers were kind in manner though wild in aspect with red flowing hair. They prospered arid grew in numbers took wives from the Esqui Maux. One Day after Moons without number had passed the North wind became hot sultry. It was like the breath of fire for Many Days then a booming thundering noise was heard to the North the crash Shook the heavens made the rocks tremble. This continued for a Long time the North to grow cooler cooler until at length men died by the. Cold. The Esqui Maux knew then that the ice Fields of the North had broken Loose. Their traditions told them that they hastened to Liq Shore with their wives Chi Dreir arid. Sailed to. An Island to the North West. The strangers mocked them As left. Many Many years after this the Esqui Maux returned Only to find that the ice had overwhelmed the strangers swept the Meadows even the streams into the sea leaving nothing behind but naked rocks huge mountains.
