Excerpt from Annals of Fort Mackinac The evening of another long Mackinac winter have been spent revising, correcting and amplifying the "Annals of Fort Mackinac." Additional matter has been obtained from original records here and elsewhere; pertinent matter has also been culled from reliable authorities and from records in the U.S. Treasury, State and War Departments. Facts have been simply and briefly stated. The manuscript for a much larger book has been prepared; but, in order to adapt the book to the wants of the thousands of tourists who annually visit the "Isle of the Dancing Spirits," many subjects have been omitted. Most of the views of scenery are entirely new, having been prepared especially for the "Annals," as was also the map of "Ancient Michilimackinae," the latter by Rev. Father Edward Jacker. Among the portraits there are several of persons, all more or less generallv known, among them that of Rev. Father Jacker, world-renowned as the discoverer of Marquette's grave; also that of Col. P. Donan, who has done more than any living man, as author of newspaper articles and of that beautiful little volume, "Mackinac Island, the Wave-washed Tourists' Paradise of the Unsalted Seas," to draw the attention of Americans to The Enchanted Isle." Among others I am under obligations to the following: Residing at Mackinac - Dr. John R. Bailey, Hon. John Biddle, Hon. William P. Preston, Ambrose Davenport (since deceased).

Excerpt from Annals of Fort Mackinac, 1882 TO help pass the long, dreary evenings of a Mackinac winter, was compiled the following Annals Besides information derived from official sources, in cluding the records on file in the Fort, the old books of the American fur-company, the records of the Village and County of Mackinac, and of the churches of Mackinac and St. Ignace; old documents in the hands of private individuals have been also examined and much matter obtained which it is believed has never before been in print.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Journal of Major Robert Rogers The scene of the occurrences narrated in this Journal was at Fort Michillimackinac, located at the entrance of Lake Michigan and at the Western terminus of the Strait connecting Lake Michigan and Lake Huron. The meaning of the word in the Algonquin tongue is Place of the big lame person. The word has been abbreviated into Mackinac and is pronounced Macki naw.1 The present Fort Mackinac, on Mackinac Island, is the successor of the original fort located on the mainland, built in 1712 by the French for the protection of their trade; and during the so-called French and Indian War (1755-17 was surrendered to the British. The Treaty of Paris (1783) ceded this fort and district to the United States. This mainland fort was the scene of many conferences during the French regime with Indians and Traders, and it was the scene during English occupation in 1763, of the massacre beginning Pontiac's War. Several miles west of the present Mackinaw City a tourist today is Shown what is supposed to be the location of the original fort. In 1781 the mainland fort was aban doued by the English and a new and stronger fortress was erected on the Island of Mackinac, which remains today, and is maintained in a Michigan State Reserva tion.
