Usual folds some minor spotting small repairs at separations along fold. Very good. Housed in a calf case lettered in gilt. Provenance: Lawrence M. Lande. In French. 2pp. recto and verso of a single small folio sheet. Signed by La Forest Tonty Eustache Faureau as witness and Antoine Adhémar de Saint-Martin royal notary. With an English translation. The Illinois Country essentially the Upper Mississippi watershed was first explored in 1673 from Green Bay to the Arkansas River by the Canadian expedition of Louis Jolliet and Jacques Marquette who claimed the region for France. A decade later with De La Salle having successfully descended the Mississippi River the region became of great importance as a potential hub for the French North American fur trade. Henry de Tonty 1650-1704 and François Dauphin de La Forest c.1649-1714 came to Canada in the 1670s in the company of La Salle and had accompanied him on his first expedition down the Mississippi and afterwards Tonty re-ascended the Illinois and helped to establish Fort St. Louis i.e. Starved Rock in present day Illinois. In charge of the fort Tonty and La Forest explored the region founding outposts advancing relations with local tribes. When Tonty left in search of La Salle who had gone missing on his second expedition "La Forest took over command at Fort Saint-Louis and managed everything himself making the fur-trading contracts and purchasing goods. To comply with the governor's orders he had in addition to raise parties of Illinois to harry the English fur-traders and the Iroquois" Dictionary of Canadian Biography. In 1689 Tonty and La Forest secured the exclusive privileges of trading in the Illinois Country receiving the concession of Fort St. Louis from King Louis. By the summer of 1693 the date of this contract the two traders had just returned from the Ottawa country with fur-laden canoes and were settling accounts and preparing for their next expedition. In this agreement made on 11 September 1693 La Forest represented his colleague Sieur Haco in hiring George Parent as a voyageur for a three-year term. Parent was to go to the Illinois Country to assist Haco who was already there. He was to paddle a canoe to the Illinois Country laden with merchandise and upon his return he was to paddle a canoe loaded with furs. He was to be fed and clothed at the expense of Haco and be paid 300 livres per year in good marketable beaver at the Price of the Bureau. By specifying payment in "Castor au Prix du Bureau" Parent was guaranteed that his salary was tied to the current price of beaver set by the Bureau du Castor at Quebec. Parent was allowed to take sixty livres worth of merchandise to trade on his own behalf. The contract was signed by La Forest Tonty as witness Eustache Faureau as witness and Antoine Adhémar de Saint-Martin royal notary. The agreement was composed and written by Antoine Adhémar de Saint-Martin 1639- 1714 a prolific Montreal notary used by most of the outfitters and fur traders. The Tonty and La Forest concession in Illinois Country was short-lived. In 1696 the king closed all the posts in the west except for Saint-Louis but on condition that no fur-trading be carried on there. Tonty left for Mobile and La Forest remained in Illinois Country eventually receiving from the governor of Louisiana the command of Detroit. Nothing is known of either the voyageurs Sieur Haco or George Parent. The present document is from the famed collection of Lawrence M. Lande 1906-1998 detailed as item 291 in his fifth bibliography of his collection The Creditability of Land and the Development of Paper Money Montreal: 1987. Lande began collecting manuscript material relating John Law the Compagnie des Indes and the fur trade - North America's first economy - as early as the 1960s principally working with dealers Izzy Ehrlich and Alfred Van Peteghem purchasing material from the collections of Thomas Phillips Philip Sang and historian Archibald Lery MacDonald the assemblage of which Van Peteghem termed an "unparalleled feat." All of the printed material and many of the documents were donated by Lande in his lifetime; however a grouping of the manuscript items including the present document were sold by his heirs after his death.

ref. acs739Republished 1985 by the Dauphin County Historical Society and Dauphin County Harrisburg Pennsylvania. Folio white and cream leatherette hardcover gilt lettering and decorations to upper cover 96 pp 3 folding maps laid-in at rear. Fine in a Very Good dust jacket with edgewear. From dust jacket: To mark the two-hundredth anniversary of Dauphin County the valuable and extraordinary Daughphin County Historical Atlas of 1875 has been reissued with the original text and maps plus a new illustrated introduction. The original has become so rare that many libraries do not own it and none circulate it. The 1875 maps reveal villages roadways churches cemeteries -- many more particulars than on most historic maps. Three foldout maps show Harrisburg and Middletown in 1875 and the county as it is today. For those with a keen interest in family histories the Atlas is a special delight. The 1875 owners of thousands of houses and businesses are named on the maps. The index lists these names alphabetically -- a most unusual feature for an atlas. The original Atlas has a lengthy essay entitled “History of Dauphin County” and over 50 charming lithographic illustrations of farms businesses cityscapes and landscapes. An important addition to the 1985 edition is the new introductory essay by Dr. Robert G. Crist professional historian. This lively illustrated account provides fresh insights into the county’s history. hardcover
