But first, how did that discovery come about? The French had established themselves in Quebec in 1608 one year after the English founded Jamestown in Virginia and 44 years after the Span iards had founded Saint Augus lumbus tine in Florida. largely French Canadians The French Canadians were then primarily Interested in the lush fur trade and, as their numbers increased, penetrated farther and farther into the West, until they had reached the western shores of Lake Superior. The implacable arctic wastes impeded their way into the North. The English and their allies, the ferocious Iroquois Indians, barred their way to the south, as the Great Lakes also did to some extent. A French explorer, Jean Nicolet, had reached Lake Michigan (known to the French as the Lac des Illinois) in 1634.

He was seeking water passage through he continental landmass that would lead him to the Pacific Ocean and Asia European government and merchants were long intent on a shorter route Lo Asia and its fabulous Spiece Islands. Nicolet journeyed as far south as Green Bay in Wisconsin before returning to Quebec. Trade With Asia Western Europe had long traded with far-away Asia and, as its population increased, had become dependent on its spice; for the preservation of meat. But the caravans from the Middle East, on which that trade then depended, were slow, expensive and subject to greal dangers as they crossed Asia's deserts and mountains where lived warlike people who many times plundered them and killed the merchants. About the same time as Co ventured unknown across th Atlantic i hope of finding Asia in its west ern reaches, the Portugues were rounding the southern Africa and crossing the In- ian Ocean to Asia's Spice Is- ands.

Discovers Illinois So the search for a passage hrough the landmass of the Western Hemisphere began; a earch which eventually resulted the Joliet expedition that discovered Illinois. In the years between the ounding of Quebec and the discovery of Illinois, coureurs des jois, as the french termed that lardy breed of woodsmen, ca- loeists and fur-traders who car- led on the fur trade with the ndiana, roamed afar. So did loman Catholic missionaries, rimarily Jesuits at the outset. As they pushed farther and far- her west they heard many sto- ies of a great river which led the sea; stories which caused he government at Quebec to ecome interested in the possi- )ility that the river might be he many-times sought passage hrough the continental land- nass that blocked the way to Asia. In 1671 the French summoned 'epresentatives from many Indian tribes in mid-America to a conference at Sault Ste.

Marie, where the waters of Lake Superior are carried into Lake Huron by way of the St. Mary's River. Erects Cross There, the Sieur St. Luson, who headed the French delegation, entered into what the French called treaties with the Indians. St.

Luson, first causing a cross to be erected and the arms of France attached to a cedar post, then read a declaration that he had taken possession for the King of France of Lakes Huron and Superior, and all the countries contiguous and adjacent thereto and "southward to the sea," which had been or might thereafter be discovered. Southward to the sea! The French, having outflanked the far more numerous English on the East Coast, now stood on the verge of the discovery of Illinois and many other Mississippi Valley ventures. Included in the French delegation at Sault Ste. Marie that day in 1671 was the 25-year-old son of a Quebec wagon maker, Louis Joliet, who, a little more than a year later, would be commissioned by the government of New France to find the great river and determine its course.
