Ab curly, liowevcr, ab 1010 It wne visited by French explore-fa, nnd In 1082 ' It whs penetfnted by Fittlior Bngurd comt- ins i» birch bark canoes. At this enrly period the country weitwwrd of Quebec wn» known ns Now France. In 1034 Joiin Nl- • collet, 'the first white miin who set foot on • Mncklnnc Isluml, with u few Huron* nnd French, voyagers passed through this region en route toGrreu Buy for the purpose of making «/*TroiUy,wlth the Indians; The Straits af that time was thn pass for nil the tribes from the Soilth. In 1070 Father Mar¬ quette mid Jollet pirssed tlirough the Straits of Mncklnawtm '.heir way to the Mississippi, nnd In 1080, nccordlug to early record*, It bore the appellation of "La P.ass Toi'onto," or the '(Pass by Toronto," or Bay of Toronto. In clue course of time, when, af¬ ter 'the country pasted from the limulu of the Ftejich, (lie uamo Toronto drifted east¬ ward until It leached the confines of Lake Ontario, where It was definitely settled, and Where It now Is and has been ever since taking Its ioute via Lake Slmcoe.

In 1760 this whole region of country was lost to. the French, when It fell Into the hands of Great Britain.

It became a port of entry as early as 1818, nt which time William Henry Purf- huff was established in the commission and ■storage business. Prior to this time frc quent voyages by vessels were made here from Detroit in the freighting of supplies with the return of furs. In September, 1818, Adam 1). Stewart was appointed the first collector of that port by President Monroe. There was no other port of entry bordering on Lake Huron, with the exception of Godcrlch, on the Canadian coast, and .fOr many years subsequently. The western or American coast of Lake Huron-was a Bar¬ ren wilderness, and Saginaw (SaganaJ was comparatively unknown and unheard of un¬ til well nigh 1840, Vjfith the marines of that date Saginaw Bay/was the terror of Lake Huron, and when crossed a great relief wm felt. Penetangurshene, In Canadian waters, waB the chief point beyond Goderlch visited by Canadian vessels, with an occasional voyage up the Snult river for the purpose of traffic In furs ar.d supplies. The steamboat Walk-ln-thC-Water made her first voyago to Mackinaw in July, 1820, and the Superior to the Sault St. Marie In July, 1822. The for¬ mer'was commanded by Captain J. Rogers, the latter by Captain W. T. Pease. Trading between Detroit and Goderlch at that period were the schooner Nation's Guest, Captain Boss; schooner S. B. Oliver Newberry Cap¬ tain Arthur Edwards, In 1834, occasional trips; schooner Adelaide, Captain MuCor*. mtck, In 1830; Catharine, Captain Dunhip, • and Mary Jane, Captain Hay. To Macki¬ naw the .schooner Austcrlitz, Captain Au¬ gustus MoKlnstry; In 183-1, schooner Jnlleete, Crptain John Shook; Oregon,Cap tain Brooks; schooner John Grant, Captain Rogers; schooner Indiana, Oaptnln .Whltn- ker; steamboat Michigan, Captain W. T. Pease, and other emit, each making occa¬ sional voyages. In 1830 the following vessels wei'c tralilc- Tng on Lake Huron to Mackinaw, the Snult and other points: schooner Elizabeth Ward, Captain Roburt McKnilt'; schooner Roches¬ ter, Captain Lindsay; schooner Nancy Dousman, Captain Sntllh"; schooner Napo¬ leon, Captain John Stowart, 11110! schootior Wnve^aptiiln Robinson. ' .. The Saginaw river began to bo Visited as early ns 1834, but the Voyages were but few and far apart. In 1880 the schooner'Mary Elizabeth, Captain Penrose, made soveral voyages,' nnd the steamer Gov. Marcy, cum- mnmleil by Captain O. D.'HImous, was ply¬ ing between Buffalo nnd that locality, which was about, the commencement of steam com¬ munication to (hat place. Vessels, however, visited the"Sagnua" river In 1833 mid the fol¬ lowing were advertised to trade there from Detroit: Schooner Ullca, Captain FearBon; Nation's Guest, Captain Case; schooner Morning'Star, Captain R. McKnllf'. The supplies taken there were whisky, flour and salt. Tlie return freights were fish, furs, sugar, peltries and potatoes. John J.icob Astor started the fur trading business at Mackinaw, but subsequently sold out to Ramsey Crooks in 1834, alter which period the unfile gradually declined. Such is 11 brief sketch 'of Lake Huron, a 'basin of water 300 nj'.les long; greatest breadth, 00 miles; menu depth, 000 feet; ele¬ vation 274 feet; area, 20,000 square miles, mfd I opine there is but little more to asso¬ ciate with it. The Iosh pi life and property on that lake w'tliin comparatively-a few years has been terrlblo to contemplate,, tint withstanding there arc plenty of good' har¬ bors and leas, as well as lighthouses mid beacons.' Alttrough the record of all that run- occurred Is at hand. I have iiottho space at present to devote to sA harrowing 11 tale. On the American shore of Lake 1111 inn there are tuTiity-thieo lighthouses and beacons. On the Canadian const twenty-seven light¬ houses mid beacons are located at conven¬ ient distances, yet on either const artificial harbor* nre- by far too deficient, imd ship' wrecks will continue until in due Course of time the needed protection Is provided for those "who go dqwn to the sen In ships," J.
