about 900 at the time of removal. Soon 

 after they were joined by some Nipissing 

 and Algoiikin, who removed from a 

 mission on Isle aux Tourtes, the latter 

 place being then abandoned. The two 

 bodies occupy different parts of the vil- 

 lage, separated by the church, the Iro- 

 quois using the corrupted Mohawk lan- 

 guage, while the others speak Algonquian. 

 The total number of both was 375 in 1884, 

 and 461 (395 Iroquois, 66 Algonkin) in 

 1906. In 1881 a part of them removed to 

 Watha (Gibson), Ontario, where they are 

 now established, numbering 140, making 

 the total nunil)er at both settlements 

 about 600. For an account of these In- 

 dians see Life of Rev. Amand Parent, 

 Toronto, 1886, in which the religious 

 troubles are related from a Protestant 

 point of view. (j. m. j. n. b. h.)
