Joseph RenvUle was of mixed extraction, 

 his father a French trader and his mother a Da- 

 kota. According to his own statement he waa 

 born on the Mississippi River, a few miles be- 

 low the town of St. Paul, about the year 1779. 

 His early chiUlhood was passed in the wigwam 

 of his mother, but when about ten years of age 

 he was taken by his father to Canada and 

 placed under the care of a Caihohc priest, from 

 whom he received a knowledge of the French 

 language. Before reaching manhood he re- 

 turned to the people among whom his e.irly 

 life was passed. During the war of 1812 he re- 

 ceived an appointment as captain in the Brit- 

 ish army and with Dakota warriors marched 

 to the American frontier. About 1822 he occu- 

 pied a trading post at Lake Traverse, removing 

 thence to Lac-tiui-parle, Minn. In 1841 Mr. Ren- 

 ville was chosen and ordained a ruling elder, 

 discharging the duties of this office until hia 

 death. He died in March, 1846. at Lac-qni-parle, 

 having spent more than half a century among 

 the Dakota. Nearly all the translations into 

 the Dakota language up to the time of his 

 de.ith were either made or supervised by him, 

 and to his ability in this direction frequent 

 tribute is paid by the members of the Dakota 

 mission.
