Active steps are being Uken by the Canadian National Park Branch of the Department of the Interior to put in a state of preservation the ruins of the old Jesuit fort or/Cnns'ian Island, at the southeast corner of Georgian Bay. These ruins represent the second foi titled Jesn.it Mission of St Marie < HiW-1'i..n;, and, besides being a relic of one of the two oldest atone fortiticitions in North America, are silent" witnesses to one of the most traeic episodes in early Cana- dian histoiy. In 1869 the Jesuit missionaries to the Huron* built their ti rat atone fort on the mainland, two miles eait of the present town of Midland on the river Wye, as a protection from the Iroquoia . This fort served as headquarters for tne score of missions which they had founded in that district for the benefit of the Huron*, Owing to the persecution of the Iroquois the Jesuit* themselves burned this fort in 1649, and migrated with tbo Huron community to Christian [aland, where, with the assistance of the Indian*, they built another stone fort which was known as Fort Ste. Marie II. The Union village win :h grew up around the mili- tary fort was protected with redoubts that aeived to C3ver and bhield it from attack. In tne au'umn of 164'J aome V OU Hun. us and about 50 pr.tsis und assist- ants faced tbe winter with such scant provisions that before spring airived niosc of the Huron people hid perished from starvation and disease. They had torcd quantities f Indian coin and Mii'.ked fish for winter use but the hupply was pitifully insufficient. With the air.va! of spring only 300 r the Hurons weie able to join the Jesuits in their journey to Quebec. It is the intention of Ihe Canadian Natroual Parks Branch to clear, drain and fence the ruins, and to pUse a suit- able memorial ou the site recording the fact that here the Uuron nation made its last futile stand against the Iroquuis.
