To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How many hunters of our day would have displayed their skill in these fortu- 121 BISHOP LAVAL nate times ! This abundance of pigeons at a period when our ancestors were not favoured in the matter of food as we are to-day, recalls at once to our memory the quail that Providence sent to the Jews in the desert; and it is a fact worthy of mention that as soon as our forefathers could dispense with this superabundance of game, the wild pigeons disap- peared so totally and suddenly that the most ex- ...perienced hunters cannot explain this sudden disap- pearance. There were found also about Ville- Marie many partridge and duck, and since the colonists could not go out after game in the woods, where they would have been exposed to the ambuscades of the Iroquois, the friendly Indians brought to market the bear, the elk, the deer, the buffalo, the caribou, the beaver and the muskrat. On fast days the Canadians did not lack for fish ; eels were sold at five francs a hundred, and in June, 1649, more than three hundred sturgeons were caught at Mont- real within a fortnight.
