The measurements in Table VIll arc derived from thirty-seven cran!a 

 obtained from Indian graves in the region around Lake Simcoe, and on the 

 Georgian bay, the ancient country of the llurons.

The localities specified in the following table show the wider region from 

 whence the skulls have been procured which are assumed to illustrate the cranial 

 characteristics of the Algonquin stock. The table includes the measurements 

 of thirty-two Canadian skulls, the whole of which have been obtained from 

 graves lying to the south and cast of the true Huron country, towards the f^hores 

 of Lakes Erie and Ontario, or on the north bank of the St. Lawrence. Some 

 portions of Western Canada, including localities referred to, were occupied in 

 the early part of the seventeenth century by tribes allied to the llurons ; but 

 on their deserted areas the Algonquins from the north and west have everywhere 

 preceded the English settlers, and the greater number of the crania introduced 

 in this table may be assigned without hesitation to Algonquin tribes. No. 23
