Excerpt from France and England in North America: A Series of Historical Narratives These form but a part of the surviving writings of the french-american Jesuits. Many additional reports, memoirs, journals, and letters, Official and private, have come down to us, some of which have recently been printed, while others remain in manuscript. Nearly every prominent actor in the scenes to be described has left his own record of events in which he bore part, in the shape of re ports to his Superiors or letters to his friends. I have studied and compared these authorities, as well as a great mass Of collateral evidence, with more than usual care, striving to secure the great est possible accuracy Of statement, and to reproduce an image of the past with photographic clearness and truth. The introductory chapter Of the volume is inde pendent Of the rest, but a knowledge Of the facts set forth in it is essential to the full understanding of the narrative which follows.
