s the fields over which they passed forth
together, and a hundred winters have smoothed their tracks on the
snow. There is a tradition that they sought Boisveyrac; that
children were born to them there; and that they lived and died as
ordinary people do. But a thriving town hides the site of the
Seigniory, and their graves are not to be found.
And north of Lake Michigan there long lingered another tradition--but
it has died now--of an Englishman and his wife who came at rare
intervals and would live among the Ojibways for a while, accepted by
them and accepting their customs; that none could predict the time of
their coming or of their departure; but that the man had, in his
time, been a famous killer of bears.
